Following and imitating are not on the same level. We cannot imitate the Lord by lifting Govardhana Hill, as the Lord did in His childhood. It is impossible for any human being. We have to follow His instructions, but we may not imitate Him at any time. The Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam (10.33.30-31) affirms:&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:naitat samācarej jātu&lt;br /&gt;
:manasāpi hy anīśvaraḥ&lt;br /&gt;
:vinaśyaty ācaran mauḍhyād&lt;br /&gt;
:yathā &amp;#039;rudro &amp;#039;bdhi-jaṁ viṣam&lt;br /&gt;
:īśvarāṇāṁ vacaḥ satyaṁ&lt;br /&gt;
:tathaivācaritaṁ kvacit&lt;br /&gt;
:teṣāṁ yat sva-vaco-yuktaṁ&lt;br /&gt;
:buddhimāṁs tat samācaret&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;&amp;quot;One should simply follow the instructions of the Lord and His empowered servants. Their instructions are all good for us, and any intelligent person will perform them as instructed. However, one should guard against trying to imitate their actions. One should not try to drink the ocean of poison in imitation of Lord Śiva.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
