do you see difference

[Guest guest]

Madhusudana dasa:

To accept disciples is the main business of a diksa

guru, whereas a siksa guru simply needs to carry on

his duties and preach Krsna Consciousness as best he

can. It is clear from Srila Prabhupada's purports that

in the above verse Lord Caitanya is actually

authorising siksa gurus, not diksa gurus.

 

This is also made abundantly clear in the many other

references where Srila Prabhupada encourages everyone

to become guru:

 

"yare dekha, tare kaha, krsna-upadesa. You haven't got

to manufacture anything. What Krsna has already said,

you repeat. Finish. Don't make addition, adulteration.

Then you become guru [...] I may be fool, rascal [...]

So we have to follow this path, that you become guru,

deliver your neighbourhood men, associates, but speak

the authoritative words of Krsna. Then it will act

[...] Anyone can do. A child can do."

(SP Evening darsan, 11/5/77, Hrsikesh)

 

 

 

Let as see how Srila Prabhupada see same verse

 

Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu therefore gives a definition

of guru. Yare dekha,

tare kaha 'krsna'-upadesa: [Cc. Madhya 7.128] the

bona fide guru is he who

advises his disciples exactly in accordance with the

principles spoken by Krsna.

 

 

So Srila Prabhupada said that guru is one who advises his disciples.

According to your explenation above that means diksa guru,so Sri Krishna

Caitanya Mahaprabhu ,and Srila Prabhupada refers to diksa guru,and your

explanation is that they refer to siksa.

 

Do you see way we need guru parampara

 

Guru Parampara ki jay!

 

"The guru must come through the parampara

system. Then he is bona fide.
