Sisyatva(Discipleship)

One who can inculcate pure loving devotion unto you, he is a real guru.

He who has given me Prema-bhakti at the lotus feet of Krishna, he is my supreme friend, he is my eternal father and mother. He is a real guru. If you tread this path of Prema Bhakti then there is no fear of death, no fear of Yamaraj. No fear. So he has saved me from the clutches of Maya, clutches of Yamaraja. Those who cannot given me prema bhakti at the lotus feet of Krishna, their guruship is partial guruship he who has made me realize this eternity eternal servitude ship is my eternal guru, real guru/ he has establish my relationship with that Supreme Eternal. "so one who is completely cent percent surrendered unto the lotus feet of such a guru, who is fortunate enough and has gotten such a guru he will get the mercy. He is really fortunate soul. But if that disciple develops duplicity and is superficial, not serious in the heart only showing outwardly yes yes gurudeva shower your mercy on me just outwardly showing and speaking from the lips but inside there is a different mood. There is duplicity there. He deserves cheating, not mercy therefore sadhu guru has two things Krpa and Vancana, mercy and cheating. So what you deserve will come to you. And Krishna knows the heart if really in your heart you are purified. If duplicity is there then your heart is contaminated. All your activities are only for show, only outward and based on duplicity then you deserve cheating. you cannot get the mercy. Those who are nama bhajana kari they have to follow these eight things. First thing is they should develop unflinching faith, strong faith in the words of sadhu sastra guru. Second he should develop greed for the association of a nama tattva vit sadhu, a sadhu which knows nama tattva he should always remain in such association. Third thing, he should be greedy to hear the Krsna Katha, Hari Katha that is coming out from the lotus lips of such a sadhu. What he hears then by the order of that sadhu guru he speaks, he does Kirtana. That is sravana Kirtana process. The fourth consideration is if you follow then all your anarthas will be completely destroyed, anarthanivrtti. then sadhaka will come to the platform of nistha. Nistha means no oscillation of the mind because there are no anarthas, no unwanted things are there, no other desire is there. This is the only thing, how to render loving service unto Krishna and give him pleasure. it is only for his pleasure then your mind will be fixed in the holy name fixed at the lotus feet of Krishna. That is man mana bhava. That is nistha, aikantika nistha. This is the fifth thing. then Sixth thing is your mellow will be revealed to you, dasya, sakya, vatsalya, madhurya and based on that mellow on that platform you will engage constantly in bhajan,
hare krsna hare krsna krsna krsna hare hare
hare rama hare rama rama rama hare hare

This is called sarasika ruci. This is ruci based on that mellow. Then the seventh things is, it will be very painful for you to give up chanting the holy name even for a moment. You will feel pain, this is Asakti, Strong attachment to the holy name. then you will develop Bhava. Bhava comes prior to the rising of pure prema, bhava bhakti. And last is prema. When bhava matures then prema arises. That is called sthaya-rati. This are the eight things. this is the instruction of Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Goswami Prabhupada Maharaja.
Thank you.

I think you have gotten something at least 30%. It is very difficult to understand. It isn't an easy thing but it is the most important. Unless your heart is purified, unless your consciousness is purified, you cannot understand. There is no question of understanding and Kaviraj Goswami says apana sodhite for my own purification i will write. not for my material purpose or material gain. it is for the pleasure of guru and Guranga. Then the heart will be purified. Then you can understand it. Otherwise you cannot understand.
Hare Hai.
