How can I find a bona fide spiritual master?

First, let's see why so many seekers fail to find a bona fide spiritual master. In the Bhagavad-gita, Krsna says, "I am in everyone's heart, and from Me come knowledge, remembrance, and forgetfulness" (Bg. 15.15). In other words, as long as we want to forget Krsna, He will help us forget Him. We can easily see how so many imitation gurus can cheat their disciples. Because most people want material sense pleasure instead of genuine spiritual life, Krsna sends them to a cheater. But as soon as we sincerely desire to revive our eternal loving relationship with Krsna, Krsna will send us to a bona fide spiritual master.
