Every time you are passing the test, you are coming closer to Krishna.
The auspiciousness of any situation is how it brings us closer to Krishna
Krishna exalts those who are humble and humbles those who exalt themselves.
"I had Krishna and I have lost Him." That is humility.
Out of all the opulences of a living entity its humility which pleases Krishna. Other opulences can also please Krishna if offered with humility.
The more we are happy in Krishna Consciousness, the more we become purified.
Even when Krishna gives you strength, maya will delude you to think it is your strength.
When you advance in Krishna Consciousness it is more difficult to tolerate being honored than to tolerate being dishonored.
