| | | | | | From Srila Prabhupada: You have to submit. You cannot remain independent. That is the first condition. Sisyas te 'ham, sisya. Sisya means voluntarily accepting the rules offered by the spiritual master. That is sisya: "Ah, yes, I agree to abide by your order." Then he becomes sisya. Otherwise where is the question... "I am thinking like this, I am thinking..." So long you are thinking otherwise, you don't try to become a sisya. You remain outside and you are welcome: chant, dance, take prasadam, and remain independent. There is no objection. But when you become sisya, then you cannot remain independent -- "Making Common Cause of Krishna," May 3, 1976 Read and hear the entire conversation |
