One should not say that "actually, I must get this instruction. Please give me this instruction." That’s not how it works. That’s not divine intervention. We can’t twist Krishna’s hands. “Give it to me,”
Krishna will give it when we will be ready. How do we become ready? What is the qualification to become ready? The disciple must be ready to receive that order by giving up all these worldly persuasions and by accepting the instructions which are given by the spiritual master as his life and soul.
