 The Science of Accepting a Spiritual Master
Such a spiritual master who comes within the disciplic succession and is authorized to preach the cult of Krishna consciousness is actually nondifferent from the Lord because he is the confidential servant of the Lord and is empowered through the disciplic succession to carry out the mission of the Lord.
However, the spiritual master, although he is the most confidential servant of the Lord, is always aware that he is the transparent via media between the disciple and the Lord and never declares that he himself is God.
Although the bona fide spiritual master is the representative of Krishna, he must be as qualified as Krishna in that he delivers the message of Krishna as it is without any change or adulteration.

Lord Caitanya said that one who is master in the science of Krsna consciousness, regardless of his social position, is the real spiritual master.
If economic development and material comforts could drive away one's lamentations for family, social, national or international inebrieties, then Arjuna would not have said that even an unrivaled kingdom on earth or supremacy like that of the demigods in the heavenly planets would not be able to drive away his lamentations.

There is a complete misconception about FIDE rankings which are limited to games played in relatively infrequent round robin international at the highest levels.
FIDE rankings start at 2200 and there is no such thing as 1500 FIDE which is as ridiculous as saying that there is a 20K professional.

 Loosing faith in the own spiritual master
Once upon a time, a disciple of a bona fide spiritual master came to me expressing the desire to seek shelter because they had lost faith in their spiritual master.
And by not satisfying the spiritual master, there is no chance of being promoted to the plane of Krsna consciousness.
Indeed, association with bona fide guru "B” will increase one's faith in bona fide guru "A.”If the disciple's faith decreases through such association, then it means that either the disciple is not a bona fide disciple or that guru "B” is not actually a bona fide guru.

Thus a bona fide spiritual master is called a paramahansa or swan like person because he uses his pure senses to seek out the real pleasure of pure loving service to the Supreme Lord.
Because the bona fide spiritual master is specifically graced by his guru, he is a reservoir of compassion and truth.
He knows that unless there is sacrifice being performed for the pleasure of the Lord, there is no possibility of cooperation from nature, which is under the direct control of the Lord, and thus man becomes subject to punishment by nature's restriction of her benevolent gifts.

Rules regarding the bona fide representative requirements for the State Board of Master Plumbers (the Board) were originally proposed on December 6, 1999 at 31 N.J.R. 3984(a).
The commenters maintained that a plumbing contractor who loses a bona fide representative should be given six months to find a replacement irrespective of the cause for the loss of the bona fide representative.
The Board believes that because the reproposed amendments and proposed new rule further the welfare and safety of the public in its dealings with licensees, and bona fide representatives in particular, the provisions must be applied uniformly to all licensees and their entities regardless of the size of the business.
