Do not envy the acharya, by Javier Figuerola (Haripada Dasa)
In the Srimad Bhagavatam Krishna or God instructs us, and says not envy the acharya or bona fide spiritual master, because he is my representative and is my same level, pure goodness. Understanding the issue of bona fide spiritual master is essential and important for people interested in practicing genuine spiritual life. In the Bhagavad Gita, 9, 28, said that therefore the Vaishnava authorities or pure devotees of God say that even the smartest people can not understand the plans and activities of a pure devotee of God. It is also said that he who has mercy of a genuine spiritual teacher understands everything. The spiritual master is the mantra I was born in the darkest ignorance, and my spiritual master brightened my eyes with the torch of knowledge, to him I offer my most humble obeisances. Srila Prabhupada always said that the essence of spiritual life is in the verse Swevastara Upanisad says that one who has full faith in the words of God or Krishna and has full faith in the words of the spiritual master all Vedic knowledge is you revealed. The espirtual life is not for armchair speculators. The spiritual life is simple for simple and complicated heart for twisted mind. Spiritual life means you accept espirtual a genuine master, representative of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, you follow their instructions and the result of this is that you live with it.
Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Thakura Prabhupada's spiritual master Srila Prabhupada always said that there are two kinds of spiritual teachers, one God or Krishna sends him from the spirit world, and God is the authorized representative, the spiritual master is for very serious people and sincere in spiritual life. Then there are false gurus or people who have sold their souls to the devil, these people led by followers and wealth have become spiritual teachers without proper authorization, those who connect with these false gurus spiritual life is ruined, all the service is useless and can descend to lower species of life. The results serve with faith, love, attachment and gratitude the lotus feet of the bona fide spiritual master is that one becomes free from envy, fanaticism, fears, prejudices and doubts, and transferred to the spiritual world, the United God. The result of envy and offend the lotus feet of the bona fide spiritual master is that one becomes an atheist and his future is very dark.
Srila Prabhupada had 60,000 spiritual brothers, Srila Prabhupada sent a letter to Bhaibava Bhakti Puri Maharaja and told him that you are the only spiritual brother who has never envied me. And in the text Six Upadeshamrita or nectar statement said that unfortunately are surrounded by spiritual brothers neophytes who do not appreciate the extraordinary activities of spreading Krishna consciousness movement worldwide. They simply try to stoop to their level, and try to criticize us in every aspect. We regret their foolish activities and poor fund of knowledge. Should not be treated like an ordinary person empowered to be effectively engaged in the confidential service of God or Krishna, man it is stated that, unless one is empowered by Krishna, you can not spread the movement of Krishna Consciousness worldwide.
