Sannyas in Kali Yuga,Do not be sannyasi like Ravana.

[Guest guest]

In a lecture in Mayapure june 22,1973 Srila Prabhupada said one should

not become a sannysi like Ravana (who disguised himself as one to steal

Sitadevi) but instead one should follow the foodsteps of Lord Caitanya.

Also in a lecture in Vrindavan SB 5.6.2 Nov 24 1976 ,Srila Prabhupada

mentions that a sannyasi does not take remuneration for his service to Krsna.

In his Vyasa puja offering to his spiritual master Srila Prabhupada

mentions that some sannysis have bankaccounts with crores of rupies and

condems that(that is before he came to the west).

Other important lectures about this subject is SB 2.1.1. Paris june 9 1974, SB

2.1.5 LA August 13 1972.
