Offences and the Grace of Śrī Guru and Vaiṣṇava
Q: Of all offences of the Holy Name Guru-aparadha is considered to be the most abominable. How is one supposed to live with that? How to root it out? Is there a chance to be forgiven and be accepted by Vaishnavas again if too approach them with sincere remorse and penance? — Guru-tyagi (those who rejected Guru) and Guru-bhogi (those who enjoying the assets of Guru). — No necessity of Guru is the worst position. — The meaning of apa-radha is ‘against Her’. — Mother Sachi’s committing offence against Advayta Acharya. — Kolavece Sridhar and his request to be cheated by Mahaprabhu. — Advaita Acharya preaches mayavada to attract Mahaprabhu’s anger. — Tolerating what’s intolerable, respecting those who are not worthy of respect. — The look of the real yogis. — The necessity of giving position to others in Vaishnava culture.
Q: What can we do in our spiritual life to always remember that nothing is done by us, but by the Lord’s mercy? I understand this, but all the time is forgetting. — Trees as an example of giving and living for other’s benefit. — Offer Krishna what He wants. — How drug addiction and Krishna Consciousness are similar. — To be inspired is to be influenced. — Bhava-bhakti, the state of devotional aroma.
