My Dear Krishna Devi,
Please accept my blessings. I am in due receipt of your short note regarding your marriage. So far I know that you are married with Subala das before me and as such you forget all your previous life. You are now liberated from all other obligations because you surrendered yourself unto Krishna. Such surrender has no more obligations to anyone. So far Subala is concerned he is also a surrendered soul and thus your combination is quiet apt for the service of the Lord. You have, by the Grace of Krishna, got a very nice place to develop a full fledged temple and your husband is becoming competent to conduct the service nicely. I have already given him instruction how to do things and that is published in the New Mexican paper. Please do follow the instructions both husband and wife, and help your God brothers and sisters to follow the instructions faithfully.
Krishna is always with you provided you are sincere in His service and faithful to your Spiritual Master, that is the secret success. It is plain and simple, please try to be faithful and sincere. You are very intelligent and devotee of the Lord. Please know it that I do not approve anyone’s separation who are married by me. If they disagree, they may live separately, but there cannot be divorce. When one is separate, one may fully devote in Krishna, but no more marriage. If this is not followed, I will not take part in anyone’s marriage in the future. I hope you will understand me right and do the needful. Hope you are well.
Your ever well wisher
A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami

Pamho agtacbsp, unless we identify with the param brahman by focusing all our thoughts as part and parcel of HIS PERSONAL FORM IS VERY DIFFICULT TO FOLLOW THAT IS WHY SRILA PRABHUPADA AS A PERFECT BRAHMA NISTHAM SAID:IF THIS IS NOT FOLLOWED I WILL NOT TAKE PART IN MARRIAGE IN THE FUTURE. The material world is a dirty place to live in if one enjoy this disgusting huge toilet of the material world one will become a pig in his next life,only crazy people trying to enjoy this jivo jivasya jivanam in a double prison House better to follow the way out of the parampara system.AGTACBSP YS HARIBOL
Unfortunately all of us more or less got pig history in the material world that is our bad reputation in the material world but KRSNA CONSCIOUSNESS IS OUR GOOD AND ETERNAL REPUTATION THAT KEEP US FAR AWAY FROM THE DIRTY MATERIAL WORLD ,TO BE CONVINCED THAT IS ALL BAD TO BE IN THE MATERIAL WORLD BY ACTING ONLY IN KC WE DONT WANT MORE CRAP BECAUSE THAT IS THE SUM TOTAL OF ALL THE CRAPS IS THE MATERIAL WORLD. AGTACBSP YS HARIBOL
SRILA PRABHUPADA USED TO SAY: EVERYTHING IS KRSNA IM ALSO KRSNA BUT IN QUALITY OUR SENSES ARE THE SAME QUALITY OF SRI HRSIKESA BUT THEY ARE UNDER SIEGE AT THE MOMENT THROUGH A SAGUNA PHYSICAL FORM,BY CHANTING HARE KRSNA EVERYONE IS LEARNING HOW TO NOT ACCEPT ANOTHER PHYSICAL FORM THROUGH THE REVELATION OF THE REAL IDENTITY OF THE SENSES .AGTACBSP YS HARIBOL
