It is important to hear the realizations of the other devotees so that you will simultaneously learn something from them and develop an appreciation for them. If you only are concerned about your own spiritual master and do not develop appreciation for the other vaisnavas, you will remain a neophyte. And at the same time, try to get the devotees in the temple to learn the philosophy better so the classes are better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
