The Spiritual Master is the representative of Krsna.As a representative what power do you really have?
Krsna has the real power. He is omniscient He is omnipotent, He is all knowing, He is all powerful, He can do anything - and then His representative, what can His representative do?
Only so much or so little - The representative in a way can only desire.
The one thing the Spiritual
Master can not do is "force!"But, "if only he could- he would- for sure!" (laughter)
If it’s possible to force people in to Krsna Consciousness, Oh boy, we will have a field day, but it’s not like that! - It’s a voluntary process. The Spiritual Master really only desire - only desire that his disciples somehow or other take advantage:
'Just take advantage of this very rare opportunity'It is what Srila Prabhupad used to say: 'You had so many life times and so many life times you did what you want, now please give this to me! Just give me one life time! Just one!'
