Teacher vs Guru
*A teacher takes responsibility of your growth
A Guru makes you responsible for your growth
A teacher gives you things you do not have and require
A Guru takes away things you have and do not require
A teacher answers your questions
A Guru questions your answers
A teacher helps you get out of the maze
A Guru destroys the maze
A teacher requires obedience and discipline from the pupil
A Guru requires trust and humility from the pupil
A teacher clothes you and prepares you for the outer journ
Whatever you do,
make it an offering to me- the food you eat,
the sacrifices you make,
the help you give,
even your suffering..
Bhagavad gita, 9:26-28

There is delay in throwing ourselves,
in all humility and devotional,

On Srila Prabhupada's Spiritual Revolution
Every devotee has his own relationship with and vision of Srila Prabhupada. Some feel more the aspect of his kind fatherliness, some have an open, friendly relationship, others approach him in great awe and reverence as their worshipful master. Many devotees related to Prabhupada as a transcendental general, the leader of the troops. Personally, I like to meditate on Srila Prabhupada as a revolutionary.
Like many of my generation, from an early age I knew
If Prabhupada Had Just Stayed A Little Longer....
The Krsna consciousness movement grew tremendously during Prabhupada's manifest presence. It was like an unstoppable steamroller crushing Kali-yuga, an enormous expanding power that we expected to take over the world very soon.
