Is the Spiritual Master God?
uploaded
from Sri Vrindavan Dhama, India |
|
|
The
other day when I was asked for the Vedic equivalent of
the holy trinity I replied that Krishna is God the
father, the spiritual master is God the son, and that
the Paramatma is the holy ghost. When it is said that
the spiritual master is God the son, this does not mean
that he is God, the source of all existence. No. That
cannot be. What this does mean is that the spiritual
master has been granted power of attorney by Lord
Krishna to act with His potency for spreading Krishna
consciousness throughout the world. This is confirmed as
follows in the Sri Caitanya Caritamrita, Antya 7.11:
kṛṣṇa-śakti vinā nahe tāra pravartana
"Without being empowered by Lord Sri Krishna one cannot
spread Krishna consciousness throughout the world."
In this connection Srila Prabhupada states:
"Persons who do so are empowered. Therefore they are
sometimes called āveśa-avatāras, or empowered
incarnations, for they are endowed with the power of Sri
Caitanya Mahaprabhu."

Question: How Does Karma Work? |
|
Dear Guru Maharaja,
Please accept my humble obeisances
All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
How does our good karma and bad karma work? And do
both of them work at the same time?.

Answer: Action and Reaction |
|
Good karma
means that one is rewarded for his past pious
activities. And bad karma means that he is punished for
his past impious activities. By past good karma one can
become wealthy, but then while he is enjoying that
wealth he may be killed in car accident due to his past
impious activities.
