Sudip Nair said; almost the entire population of young devotees get preached to remain humble, not criticize and not expose anything with the fear of committing Vaisnava Apradha. The poisoners use this tactic to keep them under their control so that no one sees through their deception. And even 99.99% of them ....., have no guts to openly expose the poisoners with the fear of getting...... blocked"
Joshua Davis “It is the duty of the disciples to take charge of the mission of the spiritual master and execute it properly. Otherwise the disciple should decide to die along with the spiritual master. In other words, to execute the will of the spiritual master, the disciple should be prepared to lay down his life and abandon all personal considerations.”
(Srimad-Bhagavatam, 4.28.50, purport)
Dave Everitt ; You know someone is a complete moron and should not be around your children, if he answers 'yes' to any of the following questions: 1) Did Americans in the 1960's put humans on the moon?, 2) Did the muslims build the Taj Majal?, 3) Did the WTC buildings magically dissolve into their own footprints because a couple of planes crashed into them?, 4) Did a dude name Noah build a ship large enough to contain two of every animal on the planet?
"....money is not the main thing for preaching religion. Sankaracarya never accepted money from anybody. He walked constantly from Kanyakumari thoughout all India. Also Ramanuja and Madhvacarya walked. They were traveling in this way. What to speak of Mahaprabhu? He never accepted even one coin from anybody........This is not a money question. Money cannot do pracara. Pracara can be done only by acara, by practice. One who practice truth can speak the truth. One who does not practice truth, how can he speak truth? Pracara and acara both go together."

For some, after years of japa and concentration in university study and sastric study and idea formation/visualisation, active self-discipline as servant eternal of Sri Guru, spiritual emotional development, and austerities, ie bhakti yoga, one may become quite concentrated, determined, free of illusion, and intense. A childishness and humor, fortunately may also develop, as the soul awakens to blissful spiritual lucidity and intellectual fulfillment.
