ŚB 4.28.48, Purport The main business of human society is to think of the Supreme Personality of Godhead at all times, to become His devotees, to worship the Supreme Lord and to bow down before Him. The ācārya, the authorized representative of the Supreme Lord, establishes these principles, but when he disappears, things once again become disordered. The perfect disciples of the ācārya try to relieve the situation by sincerely following the instructions of the spiritual master.
It is prudent to objectively identify the cause and implement the solution to these problems. As Śrīla Prabhupāda told us, “There is no external force in this world that can stop our movement. It can only be destroyed from within.” It all started with disobedience towards the order of Śrīla Prabhupāda. The instructions of Śrīla Prabhupāda are the thread that holds the beautiful pearl necklace of our movement. If they are disobeyed, the thread would snap and the necklace would be lost. That is exactly what happened especially with regards to initiations after Śrīla Prabhupāda’s departure.
The scope of this audiobook is:
1. To study Śrīla Prabhupāda’s final instructions on how initiations should take place after his departure;
2. To fortify the authenticity of his instructions with śāstric and historical references;
3. To present śāstric references that explain the root cause of all problems within our worldwide Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement, its effects and how to solve it.
In order for Śrīla Prabhupāda to accept disciples even after his physical departure, His Divine Grace set up a system of initiation wherein his representatives, called ṛtviks (or priests) would officiate the initiation on his behalf and the transcendental movement would thus continue on and on. This ṛtvik system of initiations is not a concoction of some disgruntled devotees but is the authorized method so mercifully given by Śrīla Prabhupāda for the benefit of all of us. This audiobook is entirely based on the official documents of Śrīla Prabhupāda and supported by scriptural quotations from Śrīla Prabhupāda’s translations of Bhagavad-gītā, Śrīmad Bhāgavatam and other related literature. We have just attempted to compile it in order to serve his mission and the devotees who are true to his mission.
