Hare Krishna,
Pranam Sri Vaishnava,
Sri Vaishnava and Srila Prabhupada please bless me and my family.
I have 2 questions.
Sri Vaishnava, I think a Prabhu once told me to ask only one person for Spirtual help. I think Prabhu also told me to not ask more than 1 person for Spiritual help.
Therefore, if everyone guides me using Srila Prabhupada's words, I am only getting help from one person (Srila Prabhupada), and not more than one person. Thus, I will be respecting Prabhu because I am listening to Prabhu in terms of getting help from one person. Maybe I misunderstood Prabhu or not.
What does Srila Prabhupada want me to do? Srila Prabhupada wants me to chant 16 rounds.
1. If I chant 4 rounds per day in 4 days totalling to 16 rounds, do I meet Srila Prabhupada's instruction requirement?
2. What is the difference between chanting 16 rounds in 1 day 2 hours vs chanting 16 rounds in a few days combined together(for example 4 days)?
3. Why did Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura tell His Son to accept the Disciple of Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura as Sri Guru? Why didn't Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura accept his Son as His Disciple? What was the lesson behind it? I am confused what is the lesson behind this because Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura is also part of Parampara. I am am confused because what Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura would teach would be the same as his Disciple.
Sri Vaishnava, please guide me with Srila Prabhupada's help. Only Srila Prabhupada is authority, and anyone who uses Srila Prabhupada or the Guru Parampara is authority, Sri Vaishnava, please guide me using Authority without addition and subtraction(As It Is).

I was invited to an interview at Cambridge University. There is the feedback. To answer the question you get help from many devotees and can gain knowledge from them. I hope I can use my university education to help contribute to knowledge about God.

Srila Prabhupada wants me to chant 16 rounds
Is this in a day or week or month or year or a lifetime ?
Only Srila Prabhupada is authority
Is there any reference to the above ?

Pranam Bharat Prabhu,
Bharat Prabhu, please bless me a lot. Bharat Prabhu, please bless me that all offences to your Lotus Feet committed by me mentally or physically will be removed. Bharat Prabhu, I think Srila Prabhupada said in a day. Bharat Prabhu, please bless me.

I think Srila Prabhupada said in a day
It doesn't matter what you think. People's thoughts can change multiple times in a minute. Srila Prabhupad's instructions don't change like that.
What matters is what is the instruction of Srila Prabhupada for his disciples. There is no scope of speculation of what you or someone else thinks about Srila Prabhupada's instructions. That is completely useless.
Now again - What is Srila Prabhupada's instruction about chanting for his disciples ?

hare krishna prabhuji
danwath pranam
accept my humble obienceses to your lotus feet
chanting the way to keep in touch with sri krishna . In some vedic books of gaudiya vaishnava sampradaya chant the holy name for 64 rounds a day that will help you to go back to god head
srila prabhupada said that just do atlest 16 rounds per a day thats enough. In chanting slowly we should reach 16 rounds per a day and chant consistently is most important
4 rounds of chating is nice but we should try to do more rounds to keep in touch with krishna
and read srila prabhupada books. we all know about srilla haridas thakurji he chanted 108 rounds per a day thats why he called as namacharya
listen some lectures about the glory of holy name that will change you to chant more rounds
please excuse me if i said something wrong
srila prabhupad ki jai
namacharya haridas thakurji ki jai
all the vaishnavas ki jai
Hari bol
just chant the name of hari and go back to the god head
hare krishna
