'How can one become a dAsa by dressing like one, by wearing a garland made
of tuLasi leaves, going to other’s houses asking for alms & money, and
trouble them no end?

Does one become haridAsa only by asking for alms for his needs, but not
giving to others in need ?  Can one become hari dAsa just by singing, while
still being tied to the illusion of samsAra?'
