And whoever he initiated, he is their diksa guru as well. But he is not the diksa guru for his grand-disciples since such an idea has no basis in Guru and sadhu and sastra. One of the doctrines of the rtvikists is that a guru has to be one who is beyond any chance of fall-down. The evidence provided showed that this concept was erroneous. I hope that clarifies. ys vgd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
