Very well said! Especially the references about Guru tattva from sastras like Jaiva Dharma by Thakura Bhaktivinoda & Krishna Bhajanamrita by Narahari Sarkara Thakura must be thoroughly discussed among groups of devotees because we are facing the same problems in ISKCON now. Especially about the falldown of Vaisnava gurus and the duties of the disciple after that etc. relevant to ISKCON circumstances. I think there should be Public Forum where the answers are given to these questions. And related books should also be published. Then if a guru falls down in the future (ofcourse we hope that no one will) which is possible according to Srila Prabhupada, Thakura Bhaktivinoda & Narahari Sarkara, then disciples or devotees won't be so shocked at this that they loose their faith in Krsna consciousness philosophy.
