A SURRENDERED DEVOTEE HAS NO LONGER ANY DUTY TO THE VEDIC REGULATIVE PRINCIPLES--HE MAY PERFORM SUCH ACTIVITIES AS AN EXAMPLE TO SHOW THE COMMON MAN THAT ONE SHOULD NOT DEVIATE FROM THE VEDIC INJUNCTIONS.

Devotee: Even nitya-siddha has guru.
Yaśomatīnandana: Even the liberated soul, nitya-siddha.
Prabhupāda: Liberated soul never says that "I am liberated." As soon as he says "liberated," he's a rascal. A liberated soul will never say that "I am liberated." That is liberated. Caitanya Mahāprabhu, He is God—guru more mūrkha dekhi' karila śāsan [Cc. Ādi 7.71]. "My Guru Mahārāja saw Me a fool number one, and he has chastised Me." He's God. This is the example. If one remains always a servant ever-lastingly of guru, then he is liberated. And as soon as he thinks that he is liberated, he's a rascal. That is the teaching of Caitanya Mahāprabhu. Guru more mūrkha dekhi'. Caitanya Mahāprabhu is mūrkha? Why He's posing Himself that mūrkha? "I am fool number one." That means that is liberation. You must be ready always to be chastised by guru. Then he's liberated. And as soon as he thinks that "I am beyond this chasti
"sin" MEANS ONE BEING CAUSES ANOTHER TO SUFFER.
There is a Supercomputor that makes precise and perfect judgement about whether our actions etc increase or decrease the suffering and happiness of others. It is automatic, like other universal laws of physics etc. SIN means to cause hurt or suffering to any other being(s), including ourselves and Godhead Parama-atma, Supersoul, Lord Sri Janardana, Who dwells within all. He sees even the little sparrow fall.
Spiritual life means increasing the happiness of Godhead. If we do that, we will be treated special, we will be rewarded with spiritual happiness ourselves. If we always only do that which is good to God, Sri Krsna, then only spiritual goodness and mercy will follow us all the days of our life, and we shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
We call this Supercomputor; Supersoul, His Name is Janardana in this particular universe. He resides within the heart, and experiences everything we do and then some. Thus, living in every atom,
Disciples of the corporate ISKCON gurus are not actually in ISKCON.
They are in a cult created by some deviant disciples of Srila Prabhupada.
Prabhupada is the only guru in ISKCON.
These other gurus are not really ISKCON, but they masquerade as ISKCON devotees and gurus.
Only disciples of Srila Prabhupada are in ISKCON.
If someone else is your guru besides Srila Prabhupada, you are not in ISKCON.
You have been cheated.
The real ISKCON has been replaced with a fake ISKCON.
In the real ISKCON there is only one guru and acharya, Srila Prabhupada.

Just Imagine ; An AI so advanced, that it can create billions upon billions of scenarios, each with it's physical or spiritual laws, and fill all those unimaginable infinite places with detail and meaning and living interacting beings, then enter each and every heart and experience directly everything that each and every soul is experiencing within It's creations ! It is inconceivable but factual.
There is no "material world" for God, in that it is all His expanded energy, it is Him. It is said that His energy to expand and energy to understand and relish those expansions are in a constant race. We the tiny souls have opinions re; mundane "good and bad" when we are in a suffering realm and conditioned mind. In our liberated heavenly status, we are free from all anxieties like Krsna is.
That is what is meant by the term GODHEAD, as in the Hare Krsna Movement banner phrase ; "BACK TO GODHEAD."
