One must research what a Guru or Spiritual Master is before believing them, not only does the Guru need to be qualified but the student MUST be qualified too to so one is not exploited and cheated.

Not only does the Guru, Spiritual Master or Teacher need to be qualified but also the student MUST be qualified too, so the seeker of truth is not exploited or follows blindly.

Be very careful who you choose to follow and put your faith and trust in.

Even a Guru or Spiritual Master must be tested to see if they are genuine Prabhupada told us long ago.

In the 1960s and 70s so many bogus impersonalists, Mayavadis, personalists, gurus, swamis, christian cults and Jewish and Islamic false profits, including atheistic Buddhists, and unnecessary Hindu demigod worship only meant for material gain, all flooded the Western World and India with their teachings of mostly materialistic poison of trying to build the Kingdom of God in this decaying material creation, without God.

We should NOT follow or believe blindly in what others say, no matter who they are or claim to be without first testing EVERYTHING they say. 

One must research what a Guru or Spiritual Master is before believing them, such inquiry is the difference between a true religion (Sanatana Dharma) and a mind controlling bogus dangerous cult.

We should NOT follow blindly what others say, no matter who they are, without first doing a thorough scriptural investigation and research that should include the Bhagavat Purana (Srimad Bhagavatam) and Bhagavad Gita As It Is.

Not only does the Guru need to be qualified but also the student MUST be qualified too so the seeker of truth is not exploited or follows blindly.
