Chapter 15 of Prabhupāda Vijaya, 'Deliverer or Instrumental Guru?' thoroughly exposes, with stunning clarity, the defects in the institutional conceptions of guru-tattva. Backed by substantial scriptural references with a particular emphasis on the supreme position of Rūpa Gosvāmī.
Chapter 14 of Prabhupāda Vijaya, 'Society Consciousness vs. Kṛṣṇa Consciousness' illuminates the difference between the two and highlights the negative results of the wrong choice. It could be argued that this is the greatest obstacle facing devotees in these modern times. Narasiṅgha Mahārāja’s explanation on the topic is uniquely profound!
In Chapter 13 of Prabhupāda Vijaya, 'Books are the Basis?' - The whimsical habit of many devotees who misquote Śrīla Prabhupāda and its potential to distort the philosophy is explained in depth here.
Chapter 12 of Prabhupāda Vijaya, 'Substance Over Form'. The intensity of Śrīla Śrīdhara Mahārāja’s appreciation for Śrīla Prabhupāda may come as a surprise to those unfortunate souls who have been, or still are, subject to the institutional aparādha. The conception of ‘substance over form’ is quintessential to understanding our guru-varga and is worth paying attention to.
Chapter 11 of Prabhupāda Vijaya, 'When Kṛṣṇa Gives, He Gives Through His Devotee'. The supra-mundane significance of Śrīla Prabhupāda’s bhajana-kuṭīra at Śrī Śrī Rādhā-Dāmodara Temple is emphasised in this chapter. There, the highest līlā took place in mādhurya-rasa, yet Śrīla Prabhupāda never explained it to us. Why the guru does not always directly reveal the truth is discussed at length.
Chapter 10 of Prabhupāda Vijaya, 'Śrīla Prabhupāda – in a Class by Himself?' is an analysis of a common phrase used to glorify Śrīla Prabhupāda and is critical to understanding guru-tattva. To experience that the guru is non-different from his instructions necessitates proper conception.
Chapter 9 of Prabhupāda Vijaya, 'Is the Guru Omniscient?'. Did Śrīla Prabhupāda know everything? The absolute and relative sides of guru-tattva are explained and a little known pastime of Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura sheds considerable light on the verse, pūjala rāga-patha gaurava bhaṅge.
Chapter 8 of Prabhupāda Vijaya, 'The Golden Age of the Saṅkīrtana Movement' uncovers the attempts to glorify Śrīla Prabhupāda as the Founder-ācārya of the Golden Age. The fallacy and offense of replacing Śrī Rūpa Gosvāmī and Sarasvatī Ṭhākura is exposed.
In Chapter 7 of Prabhupāda Vijaya, 'Gāyatrī-Mantra for Women' Narasiṅgha Mahārāja defends Śrīla Prabhupāda’s controversial decision with numerous scriptural and historical references.
Chapter 6 of Prabhupāda Vijaya, 'His Matchless Gift' Is a talk, given in Vṛndāvana on Śrīla Prabhupāda’s disappearance day at Kṛṣṇa-Balarāma Temple on November 17th, 1993. The glories of Śrīla Prabhupāda are shared by Mahārāja in relation to a verse from Śrīla Raghunātha Dāsa Gosvāmī’s Mukta-carita.
