I do also not think that constant repetition of a point is a productive method of teaching when essentially the learning process thrives on personal realization. In this conection one may also ask if the way we teach and do things in this society, might be the most advantageous way to bring Lord Caitanya to the world, since we cannot deny the fact that in many cases, if not in thousends of them, people are guidet into a way of life not always compatible to them and might not always be a real response to theyr material and spiritual needs. Isn,t the essence of Krsna consciousness that you simply do the right things to develope pure love for Radha and Krsna. There might be also some ways who are moore compatible to our needs and material suroundings in order to acomplish this supreme goal. But thats just my relative opinion in this conection.
