remain fools forever

Harikesa: And Mayavadis, they do not attain that impersonal realization?    (More...)

Harikesa: They never leave this material platform.    (More...)

Prabhupada: They do not know. They have no knowledge. Avisuddha-buddhayaḥ [SB 10.2.32], always impure. Otherwise how they are thinking, so 'ham: "I am same. I am God. I am moving the sun, I am..." Such rascals, they remain always in ignorance. [break] ...no sense that "If I am the same, then why I have fallen down in this maya?" They say, "It is my lila. I have become dog, so it is my lila. I have become hog; it is my lila." [laughs] This is their philosophy. Hare Krsna. [break]    (More...)

Prabhupada: Ah. Anyone who is Krsna conscious, who knows Krsna, he is guru. Otherwise all rascals. Why should you go to a rascal? Immediately you can understand he is guru who has fully surrendered to Krsna. He is guru. Others? They are all rascals. Na mam duskrtino mūḍhaḥ prapadyante naradhamaḥ [Bg 7.15]. Who has not surrendered to Krsna, he is under these four groups: duskrtina, mūḍha, naradhama, mayayapahrta-jnana. They may talk of so much knowledge, but they are rascal fools because they have not surrendered to Krsna. All the Mayavadis, they are all rascals. They have not surrendered. This is the test. Why don't you take lesson from Bhagavad-gita? He is guru. One who has surrendered to Krsna, one is servant of Krsna, he is guru. That is the test. If you want to select a guru, you have to see "Whether this person is fully surrendered to Krsna?" Then he is guru. Huh? What is the definition of guru given by...? Why don't you read all these things? Why you remain fools and rascals? Why...? We are following Caitanya Mahaprabhu. Caitanya Mahaprabhu said, amara ajnaya guru hana. You become a guru. How? Yare dekha tare kaha krsna-upadesa [Cc Madhya 7.128].    (More...)
