The perfect disciple

The perfect disciple, by Haripada dasa
Hare Krishna, as I understand it, the association of devotees means helping each other to obey Srila Prabhupada's instructions, and so we will all go back home, back to God, one of Srila Prabhupada's instructions is that all We must follow the example of Jayananda Prabhu, I take this opportunity to thank Mahatma Prabhu for showing me the glories and transcendental qualities of Jayananda Prabhu, this great devotee is the example of the perfect disciple of Srila Prabhupada, this great devotee will be a great inspiration For future generations of Srila Prabhupada and Krishna's devotees, as I understand it, the essence of this great soul is that all he did was to make Srila Prabhupada happy, and he never did anything to dislike Srila Prabhupada, he didn't I was a politician, I like him, he is my friend, I like him, he is my enemy, he was humble, tolerant and the friend of the whole world, and he never criticized anyone, Srila Prabhupad He said that I am very proud to have had a disciple as good as Jayananda prabhu, everyone should follow his example, this great devotee enjoyed serving Srila Prabhupada and Krishna and everyone, and that is the perfection of Krishna consciousness, that It can only be done when one has awakened his great love for Srila Prabhupada and for Krishna. As I understand it, only people who have sacrificed their lives to make Srila Prabhupada happy can receive Krishna's mercy, if you want to watch a video about Jayananda Prabhu this is the link:

With love and confidence I share this verse from CC Madhya 1.218
dui jane prabhura kṛpā dekhi ’bhakta-gaṇe
‘Hari’ ‘hari’ bale knows ānandita-mane
Word by word:
dui jane - to the two people; prabhura - of the Lord; kṛpā - mercy; dekhi ’- seeing; bhakta-gaṇe - all the devotees; hari hari - the holy name of the Lord; bale - sing; knows - all; ānandita - full of joy; mane - in the mind.
Translation:
Seeing the mercy the Lord had had with the two brothers, all the devotees became very happy and began to sing the holy name of the Lord: «Hari! Hari!
Meaning:
Purport: Śrīla Narottama dāsa Ṭhākura says: chāḍiyā vaiṣṇava sevā nistāra peyeche kebā: Without serving a Vaiṣṇava, it is impossible to break free. The spiritual master initiates the disciple in order to free him; If the disciple fulfills the order of the spiritual master and does not offend other Vaiṣṇavas, he can move forward without difficulty. For that reason, Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu asked all the Vaiṣṇavas present there to be merciful to the two brothers, Rūpa and Sanātana, whom the Lord had just begun. The Vaiṣṇava, seeing that another Vaiṣṇava has received the mercy of the Lord, feels very happy. Vaiṣṇavas are not envious. When a Vaiṣṇava, by the mercy of the Lord, receives from Him the power to spread the holy name of the Lord throughout the world, the other Vaiṣṇavas, if they are true Vaiṣṇavas, feel very happy. Certainly, whoever is envious of the success of a Vaiṣṇava is not a Vaiṣṇava, but an ordinary mundane person. Envy and jealousy are characteristic of worldly people, not Vaiṣṇavas. Why was a Vaiṣṇava going to be envious of another Vaiṣṇava who succeeds in spreading the holy name of the Lord? The true Vaiṣṇava feels very pleased to accept that Vaiṣṇava who grants the Lord's mercy. Someone who wears Vaiṣṇavas habits but is a mundane person, should not receive respect, but should be rejected. This is ordered by śāstra (upekṣā). The word upekṣā means disdain. The envious person must be disdained. The preacher has a duty to love the Supreme Personality of Godhead, make friends with the Vaiṣṇavas, be merciful to the innocent, and reject or despise those who are envious or jealous. In the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement there are many envious people dressed in Vaiṣṇavas habits, and they should not be taken into account at all. It is useless to serve an envious person dressed as Vaiṣṇava. When Narottama dāsa Ṭhākura says chāḍiyā vaiṣṇava sevā nistāra peyeche kebā, it refers to true Vaiṣṇavas, not envious or jealous people dressed as Vaiṣṇavas.
Hare Krishna, my obeisances, glories to Srila Prabhupada, received, I hope that upon receiving this message you will find yourself happy in Krishna consciousness, awaiting your reply, in the service of Srila Prabhupada and his devotees, Haripada dasa.
