    it is true, mostly senior Devotees are so busy with service and we have to understand their situation and do not try to occupy them with own personal problems.

    Mostly my Guru Maharaj is very busy, we have chance to associate with him only at the time of his lectures. We never dare to talk to him personally occupying his pressures time. 

    But pure souls are such that only a second of their association is enough to get Krishna Bhakti.

    It says that pure Vaishnava blesses with 3 things:

    1. by his Maha Prasadam

    2. by his glance

    3. by his dust from his feet

    so by paying obeisances to their feet, by honoring their Maha Prasadam and by being glanced by them our life will be successful.

    When they look to one they pray for that person's well being and Krishna fulfills his prayers and wishes. 

    And when we become really qualified to be seen by Krishna and His pure representatives then They will Themselves call us to meet Them personally.

    Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Thakur says 'do not try to see Krishna but serve in such a way so that Krishna is pleased to see you'.

    Durvasa Muni had 10 000 disciples and that does not mean he had personal talks with each of them; does not mean that personally he used to teach each of his students.

    It means Guru teaches some senior disciples, they teach some junior ones, and those teach some other juniors... in this way parampara - the line of disciplic succession works.

    So if there is some qualified Devotee is there to help us and can find time for us then we can go to them. Serving to such Devotees will be a service to Guru and Krishna.

    Your servant,
