"ONE SHOULD NOT ACCEPT AS A SPIRITUAL MASTER
ONE WHO IS FOOL NUMBER ONE, WHO HAS NO DIRECTION ACCORDING TO THE SCRIPTURAL INJUNCTIONS, WHOSE CHARACTER IS DOUBTFUL, WHO DOES NOT FOLLOW THE PRINCIPLES OF DEVOTIONAL SERVICE, OR WHO HAS NOT CONQUERED THE INFLUENCE OF THE SIX SENSE GRATIFYING AGENTS."

Nectar of Devotion-7:
In the Eleventh Canto of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, Prabuddha tells Mahārāj Nimi: "My dear King, please know for certain that in the material world there is no happiness. It is simply a mistake to think that there is happiness here, because this place is full of nothing but miserable conditions. Any person who is seriously desirous of achieving real happiness must seek out a bona fide spiritual master and take shelter of him by initiation. The qualification of a sp

The Glories of Srimati Gangamata Gosvamini

 
There was a beautiful girl in East Bengal named Saci devi, and she was the daughter of the King of Putiya. From the beginning of her life she heard about Lord Krsna, and from that time onward she gave her entire heart to Him. From the time she was about five years old, she used to worship Krsna, sing to Krsna, play with Krsna, and do everything with Him. When she was about sixteen years old she became maddened for Him.
 
Saci devi was not only beautiful, but she was very intelligent and used to study Sanskrit and Bengali. Her father and mother were worried for her marriage, but she totally refused to marry. She told her father, "My marriage has already been done. There is no need of another marriage. Don't be worried. I will go to Vrndavana and I will meet my beloved there."

In the Mahabharata, there is a verse which states that one who sells the animal, one who buys the animal, one cuts the animal,one who cooks the animal, one who serves the animal and one who eats the animal, all are bound equally by the chain of Karma.

But leaving the spiritual aspect of it, anatomically, the human body is not structured to eat animal flesh. Studies have shown the length of the intestine of a tiger is 4 times the length of it's torso so when it eats flesh the toxins in the flesh are not kept for long in the intestine and are expelled at the earliest. Also the concentration of acid secreted in the stomach is so strong that it burns the bacteria in the flesh. While in the cow, the length of the intestine is 12 times it's torso and so the food takes longer time to be expelled from the body. We have seen that the incidence of the Mad Cow disease (bovine spongi
