When magnanimity is enacted by the supreme personality of Godhead in the present world, something unachievable becomes achievable.
The very highest understanding of the spiritual planes have been bestowed into the hearts of the most undeserving by the extraordinary mercy of Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu Nityananda prabhu and Sri Guru . The materially situated elite continue to chase down material goals in the form of profit , name ,fame and distinction and in doing so seperate themselves from accessing the param gatim, the final goal of the conclusions of the Vedas , that Mahāprabhu so expertly summarised in his conversations with Ramananda Roy.
While traditional paths (like Jnana or karma Yoga) consider Param Gatim to be liberation from suffering or merging into the impersonal Brahman effulgence, Bhaktivinoda Thakura clarifies that the true ultimate destination is to understand by pure devotional moods and services the lands of Goloka Vrndavana , as described and defined by Srila Rupa Goswami.
For Bhaktivinoda Thakura, the supreme destination is not merely a geographic place in the spiritual sky, but a state of consciousness. It is the awakening of Prema Bhakti (pure, unalloyed transcendental love for Krishna). He taught that any destination short of pure devotional love is incomplete without entering Sri Vrndavana Dharma
The phrase Parim Gatim is famously used in Bhagavad-gita 9.32, where Krishna promises that even those of low birth, if they take shelter of Him, will attain the supreme destination (te ‘pi yānti parāṁ gatim). Bhaktivinoda Thakura, who wrote extensively of the process of Saranagati (full surrender), that anyone could achieve, without any external conditions being accounted for simply by taking shelter of the Holy Name and practicing pure devotion , under the guidance of the pure representatives of the Gaudia Vaisnava param para, past , present and future.
Regarding Guru tattva and supposed Guru tattva.
We have Ritvic and soft Ritvic misunderstandings..
Then we have …the clear definitions of Diksa , Siksa , and sastra sanga , along with the spiritually united Gaudia Vaisnava param para and all their conclusions , based on what was set out by Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu in his conversations with Ramananda Roy..
According to your needs Krishna sends Guru, by serving the gurus of any capacities ,advancement is made , the sincere service of Sri Guru opens up the whole param para acaryas and thus Sadhu Sastra…but no impertinent presumptions and jumping over with pride and offences……a lame man cannot cross mountains
What is the difficulty
