It we try to avoid obstacles, then we must be very careful, because at the same time, we may be avoiding the instruction of the spiritual master. Because the spiritual master has given some instruction which requires surrender in our part, we may see some difficulty and start speculating “Oh, what is Krsna telling me? Maybe Krsna is telling me that I shouldn’t do this.” It is not Krsna speaking to us, it is Maya whispering into our ear “Don’t surrender to Krsna”.

We can understand that although the Lord does not personally experience distress, He experiences that distress which is in the heart of His devotees. His devotees are so dear to Him that He knows everything that is going in their hearts. Therefore, when the devotees feel distress for others' suffering, the Lord feels it. Such is the power of the devotees' love. They can invoke the Lord's mercy. This is vaishnava. He is para-dukha-dukhi.
