Excerpt from Bhagavad Gita As It Is defeating ritvikism

[Guest guest]

Dear Deepak Prabhu, PAMHO. AGTSP!

No. I am not aware of any recorded statements where Srila Prabhupada gave

names. Do you want to see guru diplomas?

 

> With regards your question, it only makes sense if you first establish

You are evading my question. Did Srila Prabhupada stop the system where the

disciple becomes guru or did he not?

 

If your answer is "yes", then please present any evidence backed up by guru

(Srila Prabhupada's guru), sadhu and sastra.

 

If your answer is "no", then you confirmed my position.

 

If your answer is "that system did not exist", then your answer is certainly

incorrect.

 

If your answer is "I don't know", then why are you talking about this suject

matter?

 

> You need to first prove this is ALWAYS the case, otherwise the ritvik

> system would not be stopping anything.

 

I never wrote that the ritvik system should be stopped or should not be

stopped. I wrote that the system where the disciple becomes guru did not

stop.
