Madhudvisa: Is there any way for a Christian to, without the help of a spiritual master, to reach the spiritual sky through believing the words of Jesus Christ and trying to follow his teachings?

 

Srila Prabhupada: I don't follow.

 

Tamal Krsna Goswami: Can a Christian in this age, without a spiritual master, but by reading the Bible, and following Jesus's words, reach the ...

 

Srila Prabhupada: When you read the Bible, you follow spiritual master. How can you say without? As soon as you read the Bible, that means you are following the instruction of Lord Jesus Christ. That means that you are following spiritual master. So where is the opportunity of being without spiritual master?

 

Madhudvisa: I was referring to a living spiritual master.

 

Srila Prabhupada: Spiritual master is not question of ... Spiritual master is eternal. Spiritual master is eternal. So your question is without spiritual master. Without spiritual master you cannot be, at any stage of your life. You may accept this spiritual master or that spiritual master. That is a different thing. But you have to accept. As you say that "by reading Bible", when you read Bible that means you are following the spiritual master represented by some priest or some clergyman in the line of Lord Jesus Christ. So any case, you have to follow a spiritual master. There cannot be the question without spiritual master. Is that clear?

"The idea of an organized church in an intelligible form, indeed, marks the close of the living spiritual movement. The great ecclesiastical establishments are the dikes and the dams to retain the current that cannot be held by any such contrivances. They, indeed, indicate a desire on the part of the masses to exploit a spiritual movement for their own purpose. They also unmistakably indicate the end of the absolute and unconventional guidance of the bona-fide spiritual teacher." (Putana Articles, Srila Bhaktisiddhana Sarasvati Gosvami Prabhupada)
