hare krisna.

i am a 19 year old girl living in england.i have followed a strick vegetarian diet since birth and have studied and followed krsna conciousness under the guidence of my parents, who have been in the movement for 25 years.

I am in a relationship with my partner of 2 years.he is a good soul but i cannot seem to explain to him the importance of following krsna conciousness in this material world.

i pray to lord krsna to give me the strength and wisdom to help my partner to become a servant of lord krsna and follow a strict vegetarian diet such as myself.

He wears tulsi beads, and hes never questioned my insistance that he wears them at all times. I would like to serve lord krsna undevidedly and would very much like to find a partner to serve with, and i hope that my partner of 2 years can be the one.

Does anyone please have any advise about the best way i can help my partner take shelter under krsna's lotus feet and become enlightened and free from the modes of material nature?i am struggling to follow nicley myself and im ashamed to say i rarley chant my japa, but krsna is always in my heart and i have NEVER nor will i ever eat flesh. please help me in this matter, as it is a matter of importance to me that i help my partner begin his spiutitual journey back to godhead.

 

haribol, radha:namaskar:

Well, if he isn´t aware of that there is a higher force - God - who is our origin and means and goal of life, there isn´t much you can do about it. It has to come from inside himself, then he will see the relevance of devotion to God.

thanks to you both.

 

He was brought up christian and attended sunday school and a child, and he does believe in god, but he is abit confused and has had conflicting ideas and opinions put to him. he just needs to be shown the light and the path to krsna.

Be accomodating first of all and act in a mannerly way in the matters of reciprication. Don't feel that you're responsible for your partner's actions-- be responsible for yourself and realize that KC is literally meant for everyone. Two years is a good test.... KC is not a weekend hobby... my best reccomondation is to seperate yourselves for two hours in the morning and create some neccessary space.

i am aware of this, and this is an appeal for help to make my life more devoted to krsna concious.I have followed since i was born, but less so since my parents seperated 3 years ago, and im feeling seperation from krsna, and that is why i have posted to see if anyone can help me!

I sometimes slip and occasionally have an accidental falldown; however, once I am forgiven, I simply move on to Sravanam Kirtanam, etc. (one, or all nine processes of devotional service to the goswamis -- not GO dasa).

Without chanting on a regular basis, you will become weaker in your devotion thus making your partner, who is less advanced, feel not so inclined to take to God Consciousness serious. It would be wise to follow yourself first. It is very hard to be KC in this Kali yuga, but With Prabhupada's mercy of 16 rounds and Prasadam, KC become easy as cake " with-out eggs, that is"

 

HARRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAA

thanks for your replies. i now realise the only way to help other around me become more advanced is to become more advanced myself. if i become more spiritual and activley show my love for krishna, then other around me will hopefully want to do the same. i will chant my japa, offer my obeisances to the supreme lord and surrender into his devotional service.

many thanks

hari Bol,

I think maybe you should take him to your local temple, and then he can see just how beautifull peope worship krishna in a loving devitional way, and maybe he can ask any questins he feels to ask, to the devotee`s there also.

I hope things work out, by the grace of Lord Chaitanya Mahaprabhu.

Hare Krishna.

You teach your partner krsna consciousness. also mahamantra recitals.

Visit the temples regularly and collect valueable information.

 

Hare Krsna..
