Today's Thought: |

Defeat the Sun and Become Immortal
Uploaded from Bhaktivedanta Ashram, Austin,

With
every rising and setting of the sun we are being robbed
of our duration of life. But we can defeat the influence
of the sun if we are always engaged in hearing,
chanting, and remembering the transcendental glories of
Lord Sri Krishna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead.
Simply by absorption in Krishna consciousness we become
immortal and undefeatable by the sun.

Question:
How to Choose My Spiritual Master? |
|
There are so many bona
fide spiritual masters coming in disciplic succession
after Srila Prabhupada. I am confused to whom should I
approach for initiation (diksha). Please let me know how
to decide which guru I should accept as my spiritual
master.

Answer:
He Who Helps You Most to Be Krishna Conscious |
|
I appreciate very much
your thoughtfulness and careful consideration. This is
the sort of spiritual intelligence that I look for in a
candidate before I accept someone as my disciple.
You should associate with as many bona fide spiritual
masters as possible through attending their lectures,
hearing their recorded lectures, reading their writings,
and corresponding with them, just as you are doing with
me. From this association you can see which of these
gurus is giving you the most mercy and the best guidance
based on the Bhagavad-gita as it is for becoming a pure
devotee of Lord Krishna. It is from that guru that you
then should take your initiation (diksha). This is the
most important decision you will ever make in your
entire life. So do it wisely, not whimsically.
