It behoves everyone of us to associate with others , and thus the principles and benefits of association are well known. One should intelligently choose good association and wise council, and understand who is bringing real friendship. The Gaudia Vaisnava acaryas and the Vedas as a whole implicitly instruct us to take real advantage of the human form of life and directly associate with the Supreme Personality of Godhead, the Supreme male and importantly the Supreme Goddess of fortune, the supreme female .Both the male and female principles are to be essentially understood , the Visaya and Ashraya principles are revealed within the Vedas .The female principles bring us into the direct association of the one Supreme Visaya . The Supreme Personality of Godhead, the autocratic enjoyer who invites us all to associate with Him .

In yoga practices ,  both within karma yoga,  jnana yoga , astanga yoga and Bhakti yoga the Supreme Goddess of fortune is communicated with in one of Her many forms , but within Bhakti yoga She is realised  with the full manifestion of all her opulences as Srimati Radharani in Her abode , where the simple opulences of Vrndavana far surpass all the wealth and opulences within in the best of heavenly kingdoms.

Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami

“Krishna gives assurance in the Bhagavad-gita that if one is very serious to perfect his Krishna Consciousness , then automatically , out of His Causeless Mercy , Lord Krishna gives such sincere soul the intelligence Krishna and His bona fide representatives are giving this knowledge freely to everyone. “
