Become guru by Caitanya's order: deliver fallen souls through unadulterated Krishna consciousness without compromise.Listen — Srila Prabhupada Uvaca
Prabhupāda: oṁ ajñāna-timirāndhasya jñānāñjana-śalākayā cakṣur unmīlitaṁ yena tasmai śrī-gurave namaḥ [Śrī Gautamīya-tantra] śrī-caitanya-mano-'bhīṣṭaṁ sthāpitaṁ yena bhū-tale svayaṁ rūpaḥ kadā mahyaṁ dadāti sva-padāntikam [Śrī Rūpa-praṇāma] he kṛṣṇa karuṇā-sindho dīna-bandho jagat-pate gopeśa gopikā-kānta rādhā-kānta namo 'stu te [Śrī Kṛṣṇa-praṇāma] tapta-kāñcana-gaurāṅgī rādhe vṛndāvaneśvari vṛṣabhānu-sute devi praṇamāmi hari-priye [Śrī Rādhā-praṇāma] hare kṛṣṇa hare kṛṣṇa kṛṣṇa kṛṣṇa hare hare hare rāma hare rāma rāma rāma hare hare [Śrī Mahāmantra] So since the beginning of this meeting the speakers were talking in Hindi, but these foreigners, they could not understand. But out of reverence they were sitting. So I have taken permission to give them the summary of the speeches spoken by the Vaiṣṇavas, especially by Śrīman Bhakti-dīpak Mahārāja. Bhakti-dīpak Mahārāja is disciple of my elder Godbrother, so naturally he is very affectionate to me especially.
Sometimes we lived together, and we follow the same principles of philosophy. So his speech about vaiṣṇave jāti-buddhi, arcye viṣṇau-śilā-dhīr, this is very important. [Padma-purāṇa] Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu wanted that pṛthivīte āche yata nagarādi grāma [CB Antya-khaṇḍa 4.126]. He wanted that everywhere in the nook and corner of this world, every city, every town, every village, there should be the chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra. Chanting should be preached.
So by His grace it is going on. Now in the remotest part of the world, even in Australia, the southernmost part of this globe, there also we have got four branches—Melbourne, Sydney—and we have got a very big building, very big temple of Caitanya Mahāprabhu. Last year I established, and many hundred thousand devotees they are coming. So certainly the Caitanya Mahāprabhu's foretelling is now spreading.
So this bhajana, as our speaker, on Bhaktamāla, he said that, yeṣāṁ tv anta-gataṁ pāpaṁ janānāṁ puṇya-karmaṇām te dvanda-moha-nirmuktā bhajanti māṁ dṛḍha-vratāḥ [Bg 7.28] So people say that I have done miracle. Maybe. At least it is the first time in the history that Vedic culture in its true form is being distributed all over the world. We have got many, many appreciation by the learned scholar circle, big, big professors all over the world.
They are accepting that this is the first time that India's traditional spiritual culture is being spread. One professor in France, he has plainly said that even Aurobindo or Dr. Radhakrishnan, they presented this Vedic culture in a modernized way, not in its original, traditional form. That is a fact.
We don't make any compromise. Therefore we have especially meant Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Kṛṣṇa consciousness means to follow what Kṛṣṇa says. That is Caitanya Mahāprabhu's mission.
Caitanya Mahāprabhu has said, āmāra ājñāya guru hañā tāra ei deśa [Cc Madhya 7.128]. Ei deśa. Wherever you are, it doesn't matter. Either you are in India or in America or France or anywhere, any deśa, or any country, wherever you are, just try to deliver them.
