Guest guest Posted November 19, 1999 Report Share Posted November 19, 1999 PAMHO AGTSP All glories to Guru and Gouranga. Harsi I think you are not philosophcially correct and do not understand the relation between a disciple and his Spiritual Master. But that is one point. The real point is this saying that in glorifying Srila Prabhupada that we are some kind of personality cult. I don't know where you are coming from. I never have had that realization in my 30 years of trying to glorify His Divine Grace. Maybe it is something mental, I don't know but would like to hear from some more advanced devotees than myself of which is just about everyone, about how one views a remark like this. That ,because a devotee simply remarks we should follow in the footsteps of Srila Prabhupada and try to please him this is some kind of personality cult. I think you don't get it, but maybe some others might enlighten me as to what should be the proper reply. YS Dvibhuja das.
