Guru maharaj: You chant the Panca Tattva mantra first? Sri Krsna Caitanya Prabhu Nityanada (yes) before every round (only starting of chanting) Try to chant this mantra before every round you do. Actually the Lord’s deity form is not as beautiful as the Lord Himself. The Lord is unlimitedly beautiful. So we have a deity form that we worship but it is something we can see we can worship, but the Lord is much better. But He accepts the worship we do to the deity. The deity is called as arca avatar. But in the temple we have installed deities, and in the house many devotees have uninstalled deities or practice deities. And they practice it. You can pray to the Lord that He reveal Himself to you. And by regular reading of the descriptions in the Srimad Bhagavatam, you will get closer to the Lord. If anyone has any question, you can also write to me. If Madhavakanta cannot answer, then you can write to me also.  Thank you very much!
