JOURNAL:

Here is hope for people like myself who are not initiated devotees but love the Lord and His gita. Srila Prabhupada writes; Therefore simply by hearing Bhagavad-gita, even a person who does not try to be a pure devotee attains the result of righteous activities.

Good news, indeed! Hare bol!
