Vedic system advises women to become very chaste & accept the husband as master. Your husband is especially good because he is progressing in Krishna Consciousness.
Even if there is some misunderstanding between husband & wife
that should be completely neglected & you should always remain rigid in service of Krishna.

Everything in the Temple should be kept nice and clean.
Everyone should wash hands before touching anything of Krishna's.
We should always remember that Krishna is the purest & similarly only the pure can associate with Him.
Cleanliness is next to Godliness.

We should always remember that Krishna is the only order giver.
His order is received through the agency of the spiritual master.
The bona fide spiritual master is the manifest representative of Krishna.
The spiritual master is described in the scriptures as good as Krishna
because he is the most confidential servitor of Krishna.
To please the spiritual master is to please Krishna.

The Lord remains in the hearts of every living entity. He lives in the heart of a hog, and the hog lives in a filthy place. That does not mean that the Lord lives in a filthy place.
The Lord lives always inconceivably in His transcendental abode.
Similarly, a fully Krishna Conscious person lives always in the pastimes of Lord Krishna by such consciousness only.
The material atmosphere is no impediment for continuing our Krishna Consciousness in any circumstance.

In the conditioned stage there is every possibility of being mistaken;
but Krishna will always protect us if we are sincere;
even if there is a gross mistake, Krishna forgives his devotee who is very sincere;
so go on working sincerely and Krishna will protect you always.
