Recently I was told that we are all not qualified for raganuga bhakti. And instead of going into arguments I remembered Gurudeva.

I said: “You are right. We are not qualified for anything. But you know, it is the mercy of Sri Gurudeva and only that, which MAKES us qualified. And because Gurudeva is the dearest friend of the fallen, our disqualification will attract his mercy more and thus we will become qualified.”

Raganuga bhakti is very very little, if at all, about qualification, but EVERYTHING about MERCY.

“The mercy of Krsna and His devotees is the only cause of attaining raganuga-bhakti. Some call this type of devotion pusti-marga.”
