Woman Interviewer: There have been a lot of people and a lot of gurus have suddenly appeared out of nowhere. And one gets the feeling that sometimes they're not all as genuine as they ought to be. And I wondered whether you feel that it's right that you could perhaps issue a warning to people who are seeking some new spiritual life that they should take care to make sure they have a genuine guru to teach them.
Prabhupāda: Yes.
Woman Interviewer: Do you feel there's a danger?
Prabhupāda: Of course, to search out guru is very nice. But if you want a cheap guru or if you want to be cheated, then there will be many cheater guru. But if you are sincere, then you'll have sincere guru. People want to be cheated because they want everything very cheap. But just like we are asking people no illicit sex, no meat-eating, no gambling, no intoxication, so people think it is very difficult; it is botheration. And if somebody says: ""No, you do. Whatever nonsense you like, do. You simply take my mantra,"" they will like it.
So the thing is that they want to be cheated; therefore cheaters come.
