How to purify ourselves to go back to Krishna?
Srila Prabhupada in "Nectar of Devotion":
“Generally, neophyte (New) devotees are anxious to see Krsna, or God,
but God cannot be seen or known by our present materially blunt senses.
The process of devotional service as it is recommended in The Nectar of
Devotion will gradually elevate one from the material condition of life
to the spiritual status, wherein the devotee becomes purified of all
designations.
The senses can
then become uncontaminated, being constantly in touch with bhakti-rasa.
When the purified senses are employed in the service of the Lord, one
becomes situated in bhakti rasa life, and any action performed for the
satisfaction of Krsna in this transcendental bhakti-rasa stage of life
can be relished perpetually.
When one is thus engaged in devotional service, all varieties of rasas, or mellows, turn into eternity.
In the beginning one is trained according to the principles of
regulation under the guidance of the acarya, or spiritual master, and
gradually, when one is elevated, devotional service becomes automatic
and spontaneous eagerness to serve Krsna.
There are twelve
kinds of rasas, and by renovating our relationship with Krsna in five
primary rasas we can live eternally in full knowledge and bliss.”
