    All glories to Srila Prabhupada. Hare Krishna. Please acceot my humble obeisances.
    Thank you for good one, Sri Govinda das.

    Favorite "Acarya" quote:

    One Who is Embraced by Sri Krsna-(Krishna Lingita Vigraha)

    Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura then comments, “Without being empowered by the direct potency of Lord Krsna to fulfill His desire and without being specifically favored by the Lord, no human being can become the spiritual master of the whole world. He certainly cannot succeed by mental concoction, which is not meant for devotees or religious people. Only an empowered personality can distribute the holy name of the Lord and enjoin all fallen souls to worship Krsna. By distributing the holy name of the Lord, he cleanses the hearts of the most fallen people; therefore he extinguishes the blazing fire of the material world. Not only that, he broadcasts the shining brightness of Krsna’s effulgence throughout the world. Such an acarya, or spiritual master, should be considered nondifferent from Krsna—that is, he should be considered the incarnation of Lord Krsna’s potency. Such a personality is krsnalingita-vigraha—that is, he is always embraced by the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Krsna. Such a person is above the considerations of the varnasrama institution. He is the guru, or spiritual master, for the entire world, a devotee on the topmost platform, the maha-bhagavata stage, and a paramahamsa-thakura, a spiritual form only fit to be addressed as paramahamsa or thakura.” (Cc. Madhya 25.9)

    Hare Krishna.

    When one worships God, he is criticized, and when he worships dog, he is considered a gentleman. So it is folly to be wise where ignorance is bliss. (SP Interview with the New York Times, September 2, 1972, New Vrindaban)

    "Compassion for the eternal soul is self-realization." (His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada - Bhagavad-gita As It Is 2.1, purport)
    Thankful People: maah!
