finding a bona fide
|
Imported quote 15953 Srila Prabhupada: No, they were genuinely seeking something spiritual, and that was their qualification. God is within everyone's heart, and as soon as someone genuinely seeks Him, He helps that person find a genuine guru.
(More...) Imported quote 17928 Prabhupada: Yes, this is confirming the statement of Caitanya-caritamrta that guru-krsna-krpaya paya bhakti-lata-bija [Cc Madhya 19.151]. Two things required, guru and Krsna, to advance in the spiritual realization, or Krsna consciousness. So here it is..., Krsna is pleased in the family of the Panḍavas. So Pariksit Maharaja was going to die. Pariksit Maharaja was grandson of Arjuna, and he was also a devotee. So therefore, by the mercy of Krsna, a bona fide spiritual master is sent to Pariksit Maharaja. Guru-krsna.
