We can not imitate an elevated vaishnava, but we should try to develop attachment for the association of vaishnavas, hanker for their association, feel separation when we are not in their association, be enthusiastic in anticipation to be in their association. That type of separation from vaishnavas will gradually intensify. And what manifests? We will become attached to the association of vaishnavas and hanker for their association. By the mercy of vaishnavas this attachment will grow. How will it grow? Gradually we will become attached more to the service of the Lord.
