Your Personal Realization

In the ultimate self-realization science, Krishna consciousness, we do not impose any dogmas upon you. Rather we give you the tools and techniques by which you can personally realize and experience the Supreme Absolute Truth, the Supreme Personality of Godhead. At the present moment the conditioned souls are blinded by the covering fog of the illusory energy. But by the brilliant sun of Krishna consciousness the fog will be burned away and they will be able to clearly perceive the Supreme Person, Who is the source and maintainer of all existence.

Answers According to the Vedic Version:

Question: When Will You Accept Me as Your Servant?

Hare Krishna

All glories unto you.

When will you be so kind as to accept me as your servant for ever?

Ashutosh

Answer: Now, On Srila Prabhupada's Order

Actually I do not feel qualified to accept anyone as my servant because I am nothing more than the lowly servant of the greatest spiritual master in the history of the universe, His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada. As far as I am concerned everyone should fully absorb themselves in the service of Srila Prabhupada. But as His Divine Grace has instructed me that after his departure I should personally accept servants, on his order and only because of his order I will happily accept your service without delay.

Whatever service is offered to the spiritual master is not accepted my him on his own behalf. In a way somewhat similar to a tax collector accepting taxes on behalf of the government the spiritual master accepts the service of his disciples on behalf of his spiritual master and the predecessor acharyas. This is known as the system of disciplic succession. This system is described by Lord Sri Krishna in the Bhagavad-gita as the means by which we receive transcendental knowledge. This is an ancient, ancient system which has no beginning point in the annals of cosmic history.
