Srila Prabhupada was a unique personality. With all my respect

to elevated level of present gurus, I don't see any person with

equal spiritual potential. And I don't feel an urge to seek

for such a person.

 

I have spoke with a mataji, who left movement after Harikesa's

breakdown. She took shelter in some division of Gaudiya

Vaisnavas, since they convinced her that their spiritual master

will never fall down, and he is maha-bhagavata, and has

full potency to bring you directly to Goloka Vrindavana.

She tried to convince me in the same, but I've been too

sceptical. She just again based her conviction on blind faith.

Do you think we are able to recognize maha-bhagavata?

We need just acaryas, whose who teach by their own example

of representing Srila Prabhupada not as mims, but as sincere

and honest disciples.
