Sree Sree Guru Gaurangau Jayatah!
Whether you are in pravritti-marga or nivritti-marga, you are to start bhajan. It is a long journey. We will not get anything all of a sudden. For enslaved jivas, suddha bhakti--suddha harinama, is difficult, but if there is sincere desire to perform bhakti and chant harinama correctly, Sri Krishna and Sri Krishna's bhakta will be at your back to help you. By Their grace you will succeed in getting suddha bhakti and in uttering harinama rightly.
Without sadhana, sadhya-vastu, the goal of life, cannot be achieved. You are to perform sadhana with sincerity and steadfastness. Progress in the sadhana depends on the intensity of our devotional practice.
