After initiation, what should our mood be:

1. - Create a very strong discipline after initiation, because once you have a good discipline that stays with you forever
2. - Please contemplate everyday on the mood of your Gurudev so you can continuously serve him everyday and please him
3. - Don't do any vaishnava aparadha - don't get puffed up
4. - If you do, the only solution is to fall down and become humble and ask for forgiveness for your offenses
5. - To get away from these sense pleasures, the most important thing for us to do everyday is chant our rounds very very nicely and read SB everyday - have a great schedule so you can get closer to Krsna everyday one mustard seed at a time.
6. - The most important thing during initiation is not the name but actually DASA - we are the servant of Krsna and always need to serve the divine couple, Gurudev and our vaishnavas
7. - If we are losing the taste for chanting we have committed Vaishnava aparadha, very difficult to identify vaishnava aparadha so be very close to devotees who can help us know that we have committed aparadha and we should be open to listen and learn
8. - Also be very alert to not cause Vaishnava aparadha - not to cause anybody anxiety or criticize anybody.
9. - We will find that if we do Vaishnava aparadha our rounds the next day won't be great - So we need to find out from everybody if we offended them and beg for forgiveness from them immediately. Example - Rupa Gosvami committed aparadha to the hunchback and immediately he asked for forgiveness from them.
10. - Barometer is if our rounds and sadhana decreases the next day we have committed vaishnava aparadha or we have engaged in sense gratification.
11. - If any service comes to us and we can't do that service properly what do we do? - 99,99% comes to us, never say no to seva - because we are always praying to Krsna that engage me in your service.  If we genuinely want to serve Krsna, Krsna himself will empower us to do that service. Devotional service is worth billions of dollars but we don't understand this. Hence we should grab any opportunity we get for service to Vaishnavas. But sometimes if we are absolutely absolutely not able to do service, then we should consult senior devotees and under their guidance then we can follow their footsteps. Never say no to a service - ALWAYS YES! And Krsna himself will empower you and send help to you to complete the seva.
