A Origem do Sectarismo
(Extraído do Krsna-samhita de Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura)
O sectarismo é um subproduto natural da Verdade Absoluta. Quando inicialmente os acaryas determinam e instruem a Verdade, ela não está poluída com o sectarismo. Mas as regras e regulações recebidas através da sucessão discipular, no que diz respeito à meta e ao método de alcançá-la, podem mudar no decorrer do tempo de acordo com a mentalidade e localização das pessoas(*).

I am beside myself with grief and am speechless while trying to digest the reality that His Grace Gopiparanadhana Prabhu has been taken away by Krishna. Krishna’s plan is always perfect but when it manifests in the passing away of such an intimate, loving Godbrother as Gopiparanadhana Prabhu it is painful.
