A
- A highly elevated person born in a brahmana family cannot be a spiritual master unless he is a devotee of the Lord
- A person born in a brahmana family may be conversant with all of the rituals of the Vedic scriptures but if he is not a pure devotee, he cannot be a spiritual master
- A spiritual master must have seen Krsna. Without seeing, he cannot be spiritual master. But how Krsna can be seen? Krsna can be seen by love
- An impersonalist cannot be a bona fide spiritual master, for such a spiritual master's only purpose in life must be to render service to God. He preaches the message of Godhead as the Lord's appointed agent and has nothing to do with sense gratification
- Anyone who is supposed to be a guru but who goes against the principle of visnu-bhakti cannot be accepted as guru
- Atma-vit means a self-realized soul or bona fide spiritual master. Unless one is self-realized and knows what his relationship with the Supersoul is, he cannot be a bona fide spiritual master

- Guror avajna. Everything is there. If one is disobeying the spiritual master, he cannot remain in the pure status of life. He cannot be siksa-guru or anything else. He is finished, immediately
- Guru cannot be a false guru. False guru has no such thing. If one guru is genuine and the disciple is genuine, then both of them are benefited and they go back to home, back to Godhead
- Guru means sadhu. A sadhu means the devotee of the Lord. If one is not sadhu, then he cannot become guru
- Guru means who is above the siddhas. Krsna-tattva-vetta. Yei krsna-tattva-vetta, sei guru haya. One cannot become guru unless he knows krsna-tattva. Not ordinary man. The yogis, the karmis, the jnanis, they cannot become guru. That is not sanctioned
I
- If one is highly qualified but is not a Vaisnava, he cannot be accepted as a guru. One cannot be a brahmana unless one is a Vaisnava. If one is a Vaisnava, he is already a brahmana
- It is not that woman cannot be acarya. Generally, they do not become. In very special case. But Jahnavi-devi was accepted as, but she did not declare
W
- Who is acarya? Acarya means one who has received the Vedic knowledge through the parampara system. He is acarya. Acarya cannot be manufactured, self-made. No. He must come down from the disciplic succession
- Without becoming a gosvami one can become neither a disciple nor a spiritual master. The so-called spiritual master without sense control is certainly the cheater, and the disciple of such a so-called spiritual master is the cheated
