What is the duty of a pure disciple towards his god-brothers, Gurudeva, and superiors? Should he criticize others or not? And should he be humble or not? We should not criticize anyone. Always be humble and try to respect both superiors and inferiors.
You have been hearing about Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. If anyone will utter or hear even one verse, half of a verse, half of a half of one verse, one word or even one letter of a verse, he may attain kṛṣṇa-prema. He will come in the process to attain pure bhakti.
First, you will attain sādhana-bhakti, then gradually bhāva-bhakti, and at last prema-bhakti. At that time you will go directly to Goloka Vṛndāvana and serve the Divine Couple Śrī Śrī Radha-Krsna, in the line of Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī. Try to read, utter, and hear hari-kathā, especially from Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam.
