Srila Sarasvati Thakura on straightforward speaking

[Guest guest]

Srila Sarasvati Thakura's words reminded me of one letter Srila Prabhupada

wrote to me:

 

"The fact is that I am the only one in India who is openly criticizing, not

only demigod worship and impersonalism, but anything that falls short of

complete surrender to Krishna. My Guru Maharaja never compromised in His

preaching, nor will I, nor should any of my students. We are firmly

convinced that Krishna is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and all others

are His part and parcel servants. This we must declare boldly to the whole

world, that they should not foolishly dream of world peace unless they are

prepared to surrender fully to Krishna as Supreme Lord."
