<br />
<span class="CC-statistics">'''[[Vanisource:CC Madhya 4.111|CC Madhya 4.111, Purport]]:''' Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu indicated that it does not matter whether the spiritual master is a gṛhastha (householder), a sannyāsī or even a śūdra. A spiritual master simply must be conversant in the essence of the śāstra; he must understand the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Only then can one become a spiritual master. Dīkṣā actually means initiating a disciple with transcendental knowledge by which he becomes freed from all material contamination.</span></div>Laksmipriya
