Unless One is a Pure Devotee He Should Not Become A Preacher


Unless one is situated as pure Vaisnava in his dealing, in his behavior, inside and outside, he should not become a preacher because it will not be effective, neither one should hear from such person. Those who are preaching, they must be very sincere. They should read the literatures, just like The Nectar of Instruction. We should follow, strictly follow. Then you’ll be able to preach and make disciples all over the world.   ...Read More

Whatever you have realized, you can say without seeing the book?


But our philosophy is so sound and solid, that we can meet any philosopher of the world, any philosopher. But you have to learn it. The books are there, your intelligence is there, the guidance is there. Because you are preaching, sometimes we have to meet opposing elements. So if you cannot answer properly, that will be disqualification.   ...Read More

The Power of the Disciplic Succession, Guru Parampara

February 11, 2009 by Madhudvisa dasa  
Filed under Guru, Podcasts, Preaching


Spiritual knowledge descends through the disciplic succession from Krishna. The representatives of the disciplic succession can not change anything, add anything or subtract anything. Otherwise the disciplic succession will be broken and their preaching will have no potency. Many times in the history this disciplic succession has been broken because the representatives of the disciplic succession did not correctly pass on the knowledge to their students.   ...Read More

Srila Prabhupada did not want to create another society of love friendship and socializing… A free hotel, a society of mutual admiration, a society of beaurocrats. Social parasites in the name of God and the Hindu religion. The world hates these religious institutions which have exploited them in the name of Jesus, Buddha, Mohammed, and now Krishna, Chaitanya and Srila Prabhupada.   ...Read More

Krishna is an Incarnation of Maha-Visnu? There is No Krsnaloka??


As a matter of fact Krisna is only an avatara of Maha Visnu, and there are many such avataras. You have also stated in many verses about golok brundavana. In which scripture did you find it that there is some loka with this name? As far as i know there is Vaikuntam, which is the abode of LORD Maha Visnu…   ...Read More
