According to the scriptures one can have different diksha gurus for

different mantras. Like for example, Parvati got diksha in the Rama-mantra

from Shiva, her husband (which she explicitly and clearly mentions in the

Cc), in the Maha-mantra from Haridasa Thakura again as described in Cc and

in the 'Gauranga' Mantra from Lord Shiva (Navavdvipa-dhama-mahatmya) after

which she achieved the darshan of Lord Gauranga in Navadvipa. So this is

authorized by the scriptures. Like some disciples have different gurus for

harinam diksha and gayatri-mantra diksha.

 

Shrila Prabhupada writes in Cc Madhya 24.330: "The spiritual master has to

select a mantra for his disciple according to the disciple’s ability to

chant different mantras."

 

I want to know some more details or references or examples from guru, sadhu

and shastra on this issue from the assembled devotees. Kindly respond.

 

Daso'smi, Tridandi Bhikshu Bhaktiratna Sadhu Swami.
