Krishna Will PERSONALLY Find You a Guru || Srila Prabhupada | NOD EP-12
How do you find a bona fide spiritual master? In this powerful Vrindavan lecture, Srila Prabhupada reveals the simple yet profound test that anyone can use to identify a genuine guru from a fake one. 🙏
The answer is beautifully simple: A real guru only speaks about Krishna and canvasses for Krishna - not for himself. Just as a company representative should only promote his company's products, a spiritual master must represent Krishna's message without adulteration.
