Krishna's name is krishna himself. Chant and he will come to you. Do not stop now because that would not be intelligent. So, don't stop in the middle... finish the action and leave the result to krishna /images/graemlins/smile.gif

 

oh yea and associate with devotees.

Here's what Krishna das kaviraja says in Sri Chaitanya-charitamrita:

 

krsna-bhakti-janma-mula haya ‘sadhu-sanga'

krsna-prema janme, tenho punah mukhya anga

 

"The root cause of devotional service to Lord Krsna is association with advanced devotees. Even when one's dormant love for Krsna awakens, association with devotees is still most essential.

Madhya 22.84

I have just posted:

 

The Harinama Cintamani

(THE TRANSCENDENTAL TOUCHSTONE OF THE HOLY NAME)

by Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura

 

This has helped me, I was given it by a bhakta,

it's quite long but worth reading from

time to time.
