Everything is There in Krishna's Holy Name
We do not have to go back to the spiritual world to be blessed with Krishna's association because Lord Sri Krishna is fully present with us right here, right now in the form of His holy name. In this connection the Padma Purāṇa wonderfully states as follows (as quoted in the Caitanya Caritamrita, Madhya Lila, Chapter 17, Text 133):
nāma cintāmaṇiḥ kṛṣṇaś
caitanya-rasa-vigrahaḥ
pūrṇaḥ śuddho nitya-mukto
’bhinnatvān nāma-nāminoḥ
“‘The holy name of Kṛṣṇa is transcendentally blissful. It bestows all spiritual benedictions, for it is Kṛṣṇa Himself, the reservoir of all pleasure. Kṛṣṇa’s name is complete, and it is the form of all transcendental mellows. It is not a material name under any condition, and it is no less powerful than Kṛṣṇa Himself. Since Kṛṣṇa’s name is not contaminated by the material qualities, there is no question of its being involved with māyā. Kṛṣṇa’s name is always liberated and spiritual; it is never conditioned by the laws of material nature. This is because the name of Kṛṣṇa and Kṛṣṇa Himself are identical."
So we cannot even begin to understand how fortunate we are that Srila Prabhupada has given us Krishna's holy name.

My Dear Malancha,
Please accept my blessings.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
If the guru from the other organization is not bona fide, we can initiate you, but not if he is a bona fide guru. It depends on what his teachings are.
I hope this meets you in the best of health.
