Na teshu ramate budha

 A learned soul does not try to enjoy the senses, even if Krishna is forcibly trying to give pleasure. A surrendered soul does not even need to be in ecstasy anymore, externals stop affecting their mojo even when they're not swimming in bliss. But the pitfalls are the weeds of pride. As soon as we are proud of our material body, skills, abilities, powers, fame, wealth, knowledge, or anything of the sort, we will start committing offences and fall. To save ourselves we have to offer our mind to Krishna in full surrender, with full humility. Let the praise of others humble us knowing that Krishna's mercy is our only qualification.

Be very very careful. You may lose your bhakti at any moment. Keep hearing and reading scripture. Keep associating with pure devotees at least in your mind.
