Now, this spiritual master's succession is not very difficult. Of course, my

students, they offer me so much respect, but all these respects are due to

my spiritual master. I am nothing. I am just like peon. Just like peon

delivers one letter. He is not responsible for what is written in that

letter. He is not responsible for what is written in that letter. He simply

delivers. But a peon's duty is that he must sincerely carry out the order of

the postmaster and deliver the letter to the proper person. That is their

duty. Similarly, this paramparä system is like that. Every one of us should

become a spiritual master because the world is in blazing fire. (aside:) You

can give them prasädam. Now, of course, time is very high. So to understand

the spiritual master... Spiritual master is not a new invention. It is

simply following the orders of the spiritual master. So all my students

present here who are feeling so much obliged... I am also obliged to them

because they are helping me in this missionary work. At the same time, I

shall request them all to become spiritual master. Every one of you should

be spiritual master next. And what is their duty? Whatever you are hearing

from me, whatever you are learning from me, you have to distribute the same

in toto without any addition or alteration. Then all of you become the

spiritual master. That is the science of becoming spiritual master.

Spiritual master is not any... To become a spiritual master is not very

wonderful thing. Simply one has to become sincere soul. That's all. Evaa

paramparä-präptam imaa räjarnayo viduu [bg. 4.2]. In the Bhagavad-gétä it is

said that "By disciplic succession this yoga process of Bhagavad-gétä was

handed down from disciple to disciple.
