:yasya deve parā bhaktir yathā deve tathā gurau
:tasyaite kathitā hy arthāḥ prakāśante mahātmanaḥ
:(ŚU 6.23)
<p>"Only unto those great souls who have implicit faith in both the Lord and the spiritual master are all the imports of Vedic knowledge automatically revealed."(Śvetāśvatara Up. 6.23)</p>
<p>Actually the meaning of the words of the Bhagavad-gītā or Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam are revealed to one strictly following the orders of the spiritual master. They are also revealed to one who has equal faith in the Supreme Personality of Godhead. In other words, being faithful to both Kṛṣṇa and the spiritual master is the secret of success in spiritual life.</p>
