B
- Because the Vaisnava-sampradaya does not give very much importance to Vedanta-sutra - because the explanation is there, they are reading actually Vedanta-sutra - people misunderstand that the Vedantist, followers of Vedanta, is the Sankara-sampradaya
- Both the Mayavada-sampradaya and the Vaisnava-sampradaya have explained the Vedanta-sutra. Without understanding Vedanta-sutra, one cannot understand Brahman
I
- In the disciplic succession of Gaudiya sampradaya, there are 2 great acaryas (Thakura Narottama & Syamananda Gosvami) who were not born in brahmana families but were accepted as spiritual masters by many brahmanas including Ganganarayana, Ramakrsna, etc
- In the Vaisnava-sampradaya, some devotees worship Radha-Krsna, and others worship Sita-Rama and Laksmi-Narayana. Some also worship Rukmini-Krsna. All of these are the same, and all of the devotees are Vaisnavas
- In the Visnu Svami Vaisnava sampradaya, there are ten different kinds of sannyasa names and 108 different names for sannyasis who accept the tri-danda, the triple staff of sannyasa. This is approved by the Vedic rules
- It is the Mayavada sampradaya that does not accept the transcendental form of the Lord. If a Vaisnava sampradaya is also carried away by that impersonal attitude, that sampradaya has no position at all
L
- Leaders of the four desireless Vaisnava sampradayas
- Lord Rudra, or Lord Siva, is the original acarya of the Vaisnava sampradaya called the Rudra-sampradaya. Rudra-gitena indicates that under the disciplic succession of Lord Rudra, the Pracetas achieved spiritual success
- Lord Siva has a Vaisnava sampradaya, the disciplic succession known as the Rudra-sampradaya. Just as there is a Brahma-sampradaya coming directly from Lord Brahma, the Rudra-sampradaya comes directly from Lord Siva
- Lord Siva has a Vaisnava sampradaya, which is called the Visnu Svami-sampradaya
S
- Sannyasa was sanctioned in the Vaisnava sampradaya
- Some so-called Vaisnavas say that the renounced order of life was not accepted in the Vaisnava sampradaya, or disciplic succession, until Lord Caitanya. This is not a very intelligent proposition
- Srila Advaita Acarya sets the standard for acaryas in the Vaisnava sampradaya. An acarya must always be eager to deliver the fallen souls
T
- The devotee class, they do not give much importance to Vedanta. Because they read Srimad-Bhagavatam, and Srimad-Bhagavatam is accepted by the Vaisnava sampradaya, especially by the sect of Caitanya Mahaprabhu, as the real explanation of Vedanta
- The four Kumaras are parampara spiritual masters of the Vaisnava sampradaya
- The importance of Radha-kunda, however, cannot be realized by other Vaisnava sampradayas, nor can persons uninterested in the devotional service of Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu understand the spiritual importance and divine nature of Radha-kunda
- The natural commentary on Vedanta-sutra is Srimad-Bhagavatam. The great acaryas of the four Vaisnava communities - Ramanujacarya, Madhvacarya, Visnu Svami and Nimbarka - have also written commentaries on Vedanta-sutra by following the principles of SB
- The Vedanta philosophy actually belongs to the Vaisnava sampradaya because it was compiled by Vyasadeva, who is the original spiritual master of this Vaisnava sampradaya
- There are two sets of sannyasis: the Sankara-sampradaya and Vaisnava-sampradaya. But their acara is the same. They may differ in philosophy, but their acara is the same
- These Vaisnava sampradaya, although they appear to be a separate party, but their aim is how to serve Krsna. So don't think the party means some opposite party
- This tattva of Lord Caitanya's is shared by all four sampradayas of the Vaisnava school (all accepting eternal servitude to the Lord even after salvation), and there is no authorized Vaisnava acarya who may think of the Lord and himself as one
- Those who are in the Vaisnava sampradaya of Brahma always want to see the Supreme Personality of Godhead. They are eager to realize the Lord's personal feature, not the impersonal feature
V
- Vaisnava sannyasa was existent even before the appearance of Sankaracarya, although those who know nothing about Vaisnava sannyasa unnecessarily declare that there is no sannyasa in the Vaisnava sampradaya
- Vallabha Bhatta is the head of the Vaisnava sampradaya known as the Vallabhacarya-sampradaya in western India
- Vyasadeva is the authority. So Vyasadeva is not Mayavadi. He is Vaisnava. We belong to Vyasadeva's sampradaya, Brahma-sampradaya. Therefore we worship our spiritual master as Vyasadeva's representative, vyasa-puja
W
- We have got Vaisnava-sampradaya, four sampradaya: Ramanuja-sampradaya, Madhva-sampradaya, Nimbarka-sampradaya. So intelligent persons should select guru from these sampradayas and follow his instruction
- We Vaisnava-sampradaya, Caitanya Mahaprabhu's sampradaya, our process is little different. Although we have nothing to do with this material world, but Caitanya Mahaprabhu's sampradaya gives facility that we can make the best use of this material world
