To comprehend the Absolute Truth, one must hear from an authorized, realized soul who has received knowledge through the unbroken disciplic succession. A true spiritual master is defined not by social status, birth, or ecclesiastical dress, but solely by their perfect knowledge of the science of Kṛṣṇa. By submissively approaching such an enlightened personality, rendering service, and making relevant inquiries, the conditioned soul is freed from the illusion of the material world and situated in eternal peace.
