    "Yes they are preaching to us, but you are ignoring what exactly is it that they are preaching from the SB verse 11.3.21 which I quoted in the previous answer: "...seek a bona fide spiritual master and take shelter of him by initiation". If you are…"

    "Dean Prabhu: I have previously refuted your arguement based on SB 1.1.2, where you highlighted in bold the phrase :is sufficient in itself for God realization. Yes Bhagavtam is sufficient, but we must take shelter of all the verses in it, not just…"

    "Hare Krsna Bharat Pr,
    Thank you for your nice and encouraging reply. I feels good to receive support when we are trying to make a point. You are right, some people cannot be convinced no matter what, that is why the only thing left to do, is to…"

    "Yes sadhus do not suffer material miseries, but we should not take only the external aspect of it into consideration. To the outer vision they may look sick but internally they are not subject to any suffering, because of their position of being a…"

    "Dean Prabhu: Yeah, but point out one "real devotee" who did not accept a spiritual master? On one hand you say Bhagavatam is: transcendental  nectar flowing from the lips of  sri shukadeva goswami. But you ignore the verses that underline the…"

    "You are absolutely correct in quoting SB 1.1.2 that "This beautiful Bhāgavatam, compiled by the great sage Vyāsadeva [in his maturity], is sufficient in itself for God realization", but this verse is not refuting the argument that one needs a…"

    "Dean Prabhu: You highlighted in bold the following phrases from SB 12.13.11-12  "give ecstasy to the saintly devotees and demigods".

    Karthik Sambamoorthy replied to Bhuwan Dutt Bawari's discussion Importance of Guru in Krishna Consiousness
    "Yes a devotees 'suffering' is apparent. As long as we have the material body sufferings keep coming. Simply by seeing someone undergo material tribulations we cannot discard them as not being a sadhu. Because even though to the mundane eye it looks…"

    "In the purport to the first verse you quoted(SB 8.24.48), Srila Prabhupada states that:

    Daily number of rounds of Hare Krishna mahamantra.

    When, where and how did you come into contact with the Hare Krishna Movement?

    In 2007,i happened to read Bhagavat Gita As It Is, and I have been trying to be a devotee since then.


    Name the nearest or most frequently Visited ISKCON temple/ centre and name few of the devotees whom you know.

    Sri Sri Radha Krsna Mandir ,Chennai, Injambakkam,HG Jaya Gopinath Prabhu, HG Srinivas Nitai Prabhu


    Please describe yourself so that other like minded devotees can find you.

    Even though I have been in Krsna Consiousness for close to 7 years I am still finding it difficult to overcome some sinful habits. This is all I have to say about myself.
