Dear Sirs and Madams,
An eternal principle in this life and the next, material worlds or spiritual worlds, is that we all have free will to follow the leader/s of our personal choice. Here in this temporary manifestation, most of us decide to associate with the mode/s of nature that dominate it, known as goodness, passion and ignorance. This mundane relationship is due to each and every ones own personal karmas, (any material action which will incur a subsequent reaction) and vikarmas (unauthorized or sinful work, performed against the injunctions of revealed scriptures, also causing reaction).
However, there is third way to exhibit one’s tendencies, it is our natural position, and that extremely beautiful platform is called akarma (action for which one suffers no reaction because it is performed in Krsna consciousness). Ultimately these karmas, vikarmas and akarmas are the impetus for one to choose a leader, or leaders, because they (the leader/s) agree with and exhibit the same propensities as the one (us) making that decision. Yes, this choice of leader/s is our minute independence.
So, the question is then, what exactly is the difference with the tasting of these karmic flavors ? Well, by choosing the unsavory dish, containing the leader/s propounding karma and vikarma, one experiences a grossly sour, overly salty, burnt, putridly aromatic concoction. While we over here, aspiring for akarma, delight in the purest, freshest, sweetest, most relish-able and nectarean entrees in all existence. You desire this blissful eternal buffet too ? Of course you do.
Therefore, be cautious, because, again, the only difference, since all are “leader/s”, is the karmis and vikarmis are currently following the predecessor karmis and vikarmis. These representatives are foolishly ignorant leaders, material masters with mediocre and temporary qualifications, continuously embroiled in a one up-ing of each other, who are illusioned, who have imperfect senses, who exhibit endless cheating behaviors, and who make unlimited mistakes. Yuck, that horribly rancid, acrid taste, is indeed unpalatable, like being gagged with a chainsaw.
But, we on the other hand, after experiencing that dungeon of destruction, have mercifully come into contact with the transcendental picnic, (and you, Sir and Madam, can too !), hosted by the supremely intelligent, eternally perfect, akarmic leaders from Krsna-loka. They form the Brahma Madhva Gaudiya Sampradaya, an unbreakable, bonafide disciplic succession of liberated, spiritual enlightened teachers. These Pure Souls all embody Divine Knowledge and Actions, and all of Them personally descend from the source, of all that was, is and ever will be, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Lord Sri Krsna, bringing unlimited paraphernalia to canvass and reclaim fallen, forgetful, rotting souls.
Yes, Lord Sri Krsna Himself, who inaugurated the Lord Brahma Parampara and who created this whole uni-verse, let alone this tiny speck of dust planet, and His akarmic pure devotee A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, Srila Prabhupada, are still walking and talking the unbroken chain of Sacred Instructions from time immemorial. They and Their Lotus Footprints are who and what we aspire to follow, in totality. Why ? Because Srila Prabhupada has tasted the sweetness of pure devotional service, is basking in the akarmic scent of it’s perfection, and, is offering this membership opportunity on behalf of Lord Krsna for the nominal charge of completely free. Yes, an amazingly glorious feast indeed.
“If we don’t follow, then we must fall down. There is no doubt about it. But if we follow the regulative principles, as they are enjoined in the sastra… Sadhu-guru-sastra. Sastra will say the same thing as guru advises. Sadhu-guru. A saintly person also will say the same thing.” (Srila Prabhupada class on Srimad-Bhagavatam 1.3.29 October 4, 1972, Los Angeles)
Following is an unchangeable fact. No one, not you Sir or Madam, not me, nor anyone else can avoid following a leader/s, the following of authority. we have to chose one or the other, material or spiritual, and which one we choose is of paramount importance. If we mistakenly pick the wrong one, i.e. material, that choice breeds bewilderment of memory, producing delusional episodes, these episodes remove intelligence, allowing us to fall again into the painful pool of sinful life. we all are traversing either one path or the other. we all are designated to follow something, someone.
But, for us, and you are welcomed and permitted as well, as we are all family, our choice is to follow and serve the Supreme Being, Sri Govinda, and His Authentic Servants, and Their requests, unaltered and favorably, not unfavorably, disobediently, like various atheists and demons currently and throughout history. The list is sadly endless and includes Kamsa, Sisupala, Ravana, Hiranyakasipu, Hiranyaksa, Kali, the modern scientists, the lowest of humankind, et al., who have, and or, continue to defy and challenge Lord Krsnas’ and His Paramparas’ impeccable, invincible authority.
“A śikṣā-guru who instructs against the instruction of spiritual, he is not a śikṣā guru. He is a demon. Siksa-guru, diksa-guru means… Sometimes a diksa-guru is not present always. Therefore one can take learning, instruction, from an advanced devotee. That is called the siksa-guru. Siksa-guru does not mean he is speaking something against the teachings of the diksa-guru. He is not a siksa-guru. He is a rascal….. Because that is offense. Guror avajñā. First offense is guror avajñā, defying the authority of guru. This is the first offense. So one who is offensive, how he can make advance in chanting? He cannot make. Then everything is finished in the beginning. Guror avajna. Everything is there. If one is disobeying the spiritual master, he cannot remain in the pure status of life. He cannot be siksa-guru or anything else. He is finished, immediately. Guror avajna sruti-sastra-nindanam, namno balad yasya hi…….. You do not study all these things. You become initiated. There are ten kinds of offenses. Do you have any regard for these things or not? You must avoid these ten kinds of offenses. The first offense is to disobey the orders of guru. That is first offense. So if you are offensive, how you can become advanced by chanting? That is also not possible. (Srila Prabhupada class on Bhagavad-gita As It is 17.1-3 Honolulu july 4, 1974)
What Srila Prabhupada is clearly and adamantly describing above is heard and understood as the fatally self imposed disease known as “kill guru become guru”; a trendy but suicidal process of knowingly and flagrantly disobeying sanctified instructions/laws, and unceremoniously inserting ones imperfect self as the ultimate authority on all that be. Srila Prabhupada is here vehemently condemning this vain act, and requesting, for us all, to eternally give up this atheistic propensity almost everyone on this planet possesses. Why ?
Because, only when one completely stops offending the Pure Devotee/s of Lord Krsna, and the Diksa Guru, who is the most recent and still current Acarya (Teacher of Divine Knowledge) in the Brahma Sampradaya, who is His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, Srila Prabhupada, who gives us the transcendental recipe of success to follow, do we then make Spiritual progress, starting to head back to eternal life, Back to Home, Back to Godhead. Until this characteristic of humbly and joyously following Their directions is exhibited by us, we are regressing, devolving, falling further and farther away from The Supreme Personality of Godhead, Sri Krsna, due to our rebellious actions and sentimentalities, thereby falling prey to Maya’s (the illusion) unlimited and ever increasing trickery.
Yes, in the material laws of conservation of energy, (karma and vikarma), every action does have a reaction, and disobedience to Lord Krsna’s Authentic Representative like Srila Prabhupada does give us a tangible reward, and has throughout time, past, present and future. But, that reward is not auspicious, and involves another birth, involving more miseries like, old age, invalidity, disease, suffering and ultimately, another death.
That reward equates to more time in prison here in the material universe, in which Lord Krsnas’ great devotee Goddess Durga, Maya-devi, the prison guard, prison master, executes Her thankless task by forcing us to accept another material body, another material mind, another material intelligence, and another false ego to display for disobeying Her master, Lord Krsna, and, disrespecting the likes of His Divine Grace, A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, Srila Prabhupada.
“Anyone who is following ācārya, whatever he says, it is correct, because he does not manufacture. He says what he has heard from the ācārya, exactly like the child, what he has heard from his father, from the superior, he speaks. So that is the position of guru. Guru is respected as good as God. Why? Only for this qualification, that he does not speak anything nonsense. He speaks only what he has heard from the ācārya. Ācāryavān puruṣo veda. Ācāryopāsanam. In the Bhagavad-gītā it is said ācāryopāsanam.” (Srila Prabhupada class on Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 1.7.5, September 4,1976.)
Worshiping false idols and the glorification of such like illicit sex (any sexual act committed that is done without the understanding that sexual engagement is meant to produce Krsna conscious offspring), speculation/gambling, animal slaughter and/or meat/egg eating, intoxication (caffeine, alcohol, marijuana, opiods, hallucinogens, designer drugs, etc.), pseudo spiritual guides/self made god men, man-made invented societies (sectarian cults), man-made rituals, ownership of stuff, et. al. These are all manufactured here in this paradigm, and professed as truth by psychopathic, sociopathic entities known as atheists, demons, presidents, priests, c.e.o.s, etc., etc., etc., and never set us free. That is why these actions are known as karma and vikarma, because they result in entanglement, binding one tighter and tighter, helplessly trapping one, making one a servant of their temporary senses, controlling one and forcing one to stay in the darkness of material existence, choking one off from desired freedom, inducing spiritual death.
Sirs and Madams, participation in and/or following and/or supporting anyone who promotes these aforementioned pillars of sinful life are sadly at The End, The End of spiritual life. Please, Please, Please, Sirs and Madams, do your homework diligently on who you are blindly, deafly tastelessly, following/promoting/supporting. If you have come to your senses through Lord Sri Krsnas’ mercy and decide you would rather bypass this miserable experience of repeated births, deaths and all the concomitant factors that accompany them, then Please, politely take shelter of His Divine Grace Srila Prabhupada, Lord Sri Krsna, Their timeless instructions, and the Holy Names, Hare Krsna Hare Krsna Krsna Krsna Hare Hare, Hare Rama Hare Rama Rama Rama Hare Hare, favorably, lovingly, and begin your journey Back Home, Back to Godhead, right now, instantly, today. This is an open invitation Sirs and Madams, all have permission to the admission.
Long Live Lord Caitanya ! Long Live Lord Nityananda ! Long Live Srila Prabhupada !
All-ways inspired by His Divine Grace Srila Prabhupada,

Infinite Glory, Victory, and Allegiance to Srila Prabhupada !!!
