This is the secret. Yasya deve para bhaktir yatha deve tatha gurau [SU 6.23]. If one has staunch faith in the Supreme Personality of Godhead and as much faith in the guru, yatha deve tatha gurau, then the revealed scriptures become manifest. It is not the education. It is not the scholarship. It is faith in Krishnaand guru. Therefore Caitanya-caritamrta-kar says, guru-Krishna -krpaya paya bhakti-lata-bija [Cc. Madhya 19.151]. Not by education; not by scholarship. Never says. Caitanya Mahaprabhu says, guru-Krishna -krpaya, by the mercy of guru, by the mercy of Krishna . It is a question of mercy. It is not the question of scholarship or opulence or richness. No. The whole bhakti-marga depends on the mercy of the Lord. So we have to seek the mercy. athapi te deva padambuja-dvaya-prasada-lesanugrhita eva hi, janati tattvam… [SB 10.14.29]. Prasada-lesa. Lesa means fraction. One who has received a little fraction of mercy of the Supreme, he can understand. Others, na canya eko ‘pi ciraṁ vicinvan. Others, they may go on speculating for millions of years, it is not possible to understand.
