• We depend on our guru but we should be careful to avoid unhealthy dependency or co-dependency that may handicap our bhakti when the guru leaves.

• Krishna creates difficulties so we depend on him more.

• When our mind says, "I am bad" or "I should leave Krishna because He didn't take care of me" then we should say maya is saying these things because then we articulate reality and that will have a different effect on us.
