Category:Our Defeat (Disciples of SP)
Theme Analysis
The quotes in this category reveal the invincible nature of absolute truth and the required mentality for those who preach it. Because the movement is based strictly on genuine śāstra rather than mundane sentiment, Śrīla Prabhupāda assures his students that their philosophy can never be defeated by atheists, impersonalists, or false scientific theories. To confidently face these opposing elements, devotees are trained to use the published literature as their primary weapon to dismantle the illusions of māyā. However, while fighting fiercely to establish Kṛṣṇa consciousness, a preacher is simultaneously taught profound detachment. True success is not measured by immediate material victory or defeat, nor by the ordinary laws of karma, but solely by the sincere effort made to serve the Supreme Lord.
- The Infallible Foundation: The spiritual movement stands solidly on absolute philosophy, making it uniquely equipped to easily defeat all mundane theories and sentimental religious ideas.
- Confronting Falsehood: Preachers must be expert in philosophical debate, ready to boldly challenge and dismantle the false theories of impersonalists and modern materialistic scientists.
- Equipping the Preachers: Thoroughly studying the translated scriptures provides disciples with the ultimate propaganda weapons necessary to cut through the heavy ignorance of the modern world.
- Resisting the Illusions of Māyā: The material energy will constantly attempt to bewilder and defeat sincere devotees, but clinging tightly to the lotus feet of the Lord guarantees ultimate victory.
- Detachment from Outcomes: A true servant fights for the mission to their best capacity without becoming jubilant in victory or morose in defeat, knowing that the Lord perfectly recognizes their sincere endeavor.
