The Glorious connection…

As stated and rightly so . by many devotees statements ,  Srila Prabhupada is the Siksa Guru of all the members of ISKCON and those who have absolute faith in him , whether so called inside or outside of ISKCON . The founder Acarya of ISKCON is an empowered pure devotee of Krishna , and I often say to those who misunderstand param para , that if they think Prabhupada did not have the potency to make Gurus of all kinds to continue on the param para succession,  more fool them  .

Importantly, Srila Prabhupada is giving us access to the predominant teachers of Gaudia Vaisnavism,  those “significant ” acaryas , although of course all devotees are significant,  stemming from Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu through the Goswami’s , who Mahāprabhu personally taught . Srila Prabhupada is the transparent medium who can show us the methods by which their connections , by Siksa and Sastra sanga, can be made . By Srila Prabhupada’s teachings and services to him, connections can be made, and the param para acaryas teachings can be  fully understood .  The connections between the many peripherals  within the Vedas and all the cor teachings of the Vedas , particularly the essence of Gaudia Vaisnavism , as taught by Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu through his conversion with Ramananda Roy , are laid out by our param para . In recent times, Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur has clarified everything and as  well as the processes and qualifications to find perfection.  This was his prescriptions, particularly for worldwide preaching . Srila Prabhupada has outlined everything and made all the connections perfectly between all our acaryas and their teachings.

So , perhaps an emphasis on Srila Prabhupada’s abilities to correctly guide us to our param para acaryas and their teachings , which he has clearly laid out in his writings , from beginnings to their perfection in pure spontaneous love , which he always personally explained should be understood in full .

In Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur’s commentary to Srila Ragganatha das Goswami’s Manah Siksa .

Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur has said we should regard the Goswami’s of Vrndavana who Mahāprabhu taught as our own personal Siksa Gurus. 

The essential mission of ISKCON , which Srila Prabhupada has so experrtly taken up , because he Himself is Mahāprabhu’s and Nityananda prabhu’s associate , stems from Their other associates Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur and Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaj . Especially the broad teachings of Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur , who brought us insights to Devi Varna Ashram that Prabhupada has introduced , we are in the Bhaktivinod parivag .

Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur brought the Vedic world to the Western world through his broad visions of an all encompasing Vedas . The peripherals and cor can and do join together as progressive and individually meant meaningful paths . Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur’s son , Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Goswami started the  wide broadcast of Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur’s teachings within India , he desired them  also to be spread world wide , as his father wanted , this was a  prediction of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu . So it was the Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaja’s disciple Srila AC Bhaktivedanta Swami arrived in USA and founded ISKCON 60 years ago , Prabhupada’s personal pure Krishna consciousness was on full display and his enthusiasm to carry out Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu desire . The order of his spiritual master had begun , ISKCON is a most powerful preaching movement that is ever increasing and Krishna has most definitely sent many special souls to assist ISKCON and continues to do so , Srila Bhaktivinod Thakur’s vision is taking shape , and its just beginning in one sense.

So any how , its important to make these trancendental connections in my opinion because the whole of our Gaudia Vaisnavas param para have been opened up so expertly by Srila Prabhupada . Through his teachings,  by serving his mission , and by humbly cooperating with others that try to assist the mission of Prabhupada , then by grace , all of our param para acaryas insights within their Smiti’s and their trancendental unlimited connections to the spiritual realms may decend upon us , and some  trancendental understanding may develop. 

In the Western world and in most parts of the world,  including India,  access in real terms to the Gaudia Vaisnava param para  and their services begins and has began through Srila AC Bhavtivedanta Swami Prabhupada , who has clearly explained all , not exclusively because there are many great Gaudia Vaisnavas , but Srila Prabhupada has made the whole world chant Hare Krishna by his ISKCON society
