The Secret

The secret to advancing in Krishna Consciousness is revealed here in by Srila Prabhupada. This quote applies to every entity aspiring to be devotees of Lord Krishna.

At the end of the lecture, Ranacora asked a question of Prabhupada. "when you become initiated by the spiritual master, does he take all of your karma, even if you might perform sinful activities - does he take the suffering you might have received?"

Prabhupada replied heavily, "You must simply become ruled by your spiritual master." Those words by Srila Prabhupada entered the heart of his disciple, and his glance cut through all impersonalism.

From Prabhupada Nectar by HH Satsvarupa Dasa Goswami

Yes, we must be ruled by Prabhupada the perfect guru to such an extent that if our mundane logic and reason is contradicted by the words of the guru, we must still accept his teaching. There is no need for this nonsensical thing called empirical evidence.
