Work within our limits... as you have titled the posting could not reflect

more adequately the difficulties we are facing in spreading KC. I conclude

from what is written here: "we can expect Krsna to reciprocate such

insincerity by withdrawing His mercy", that KC is an elitist path and that it

does not favour varnashrama dharma. Taken in a certain context, this quote is

a warning to the "big" or great devotees especially. That is the philosophy.

Prabhupada said: "don't compromise". But what can a miserable bhakta hope if

"falldowns, even mental, are damaging to our devotional service"?

Disqualification! Disqualification from everything, since KC means everything.

For what is a use of any qualification when you are not KC? "Thus the

privilege of devotional service is lost."

We have a long way to go before the golden age… Thank you for sharing your

thoughs.
