ILLUSORY ENTICEMENTS


Sometimes devotees feel guilty. 
Sometimes ashamed. 
Or embarrassed. 
For all the truly dumb things they've done...
stumbling around in the darkness and illusion.
And then fearful... can they trust themselves not to make more painful mistakes?
Will they fall for the allurement and false promise of the illusory energy again? 
Become a victim once again?
There is no guarantee.

For the less intelligent the learning is there...
After putting a hand in the fire over and over again 
and experiencing.. yes it burns...
At some point......
We stay awake...
We do not become hypnotized by the illusory enticements.
We trust ourselves and when we can do that...
Trust ourselves to make the Krishna conscious decision in all matters
then we also love ourselves...forgive ourselves
Then we are free to love others and forgive others,.
And Krishna is there.
