Question: I can feel always that you give mercy to me though I am very fallen and unpurified soul. Without guru’s mercy, I cannot do anything. But sometimes I feel a great distance from the spiritual master in my mind. Dear beloved father, how can I feel, perceive that you, guru, are always with me and I am at your lotus feet?

Jayapataka Swami: You should understand that I am always supporting you. We are connected through the Supersoul, and thus as long as you are following my orders, Kṛṣṇa will help you in various ways. In that way, I am always with you, and you are always with me....
