As you know it is my desire to receive regular reports from devotees who are serving as counselors for my disciples. It is my opinion that, although it takes some time and commitment to write such reports, the effort to do so helps me tremendously to better understand how my aspiring disciples and disciples are doing in their devotional service. I keep record of every counselor report I receive and I use them in the course of my travels when meeting and speaking with disciples.
