Recipe for Spiritual Success
by Krsna Kanta devi dasi

Editors note: Krsna Kanta devi dasi, a disciple of Srila Prabhupada, recently passed away in her sleep in Vancouver, Canada. Her husband, Mahidhar Prabhu, passed along the following "recipe card," hand-written in Krsna Kanta's own writing. The curious thing about the card is that it has some stains on it, as if it had been used in the kitchen many times while making the preparation described below. I thought I would share it with the readers of Chakra. —Vipramukhya Swami

2 cups of Krsna Conscious (devotional) goals
2 cups of spiritual desire and faith
3 cups of enthusiasm
2 cups of persistence
2½ cups of patience
3½ cups of loving devotion to guru sastra sadhu

-Sift together the above 6 ingredients and mix thoroughly with lots of saintly devotees.

-Pour into "sadhana bhakti" program and simmer

-Do not set aside and let cool

Yield: a successful and prosperous spiritual life in Krsna consciousness and always remember — Success lies not in being the best, but in doing your best!
