<div class="heading">Guru's business is not to exploit the śiṣya. It is the business, how to deliver. So who can deliver? Who is actually guru in the paramparā system? Evaṁ paramparā-prāptam imaṁ rājarṣayo viduḥ (BG 4.2). So we have to take the authority of become guru from Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, the same thing. Within five hundred years His order is that āmāra ājñāya guru hañā: (CC Madhya 7.128) "You cannot become guru all of a sudden. You must take order from Me."

<span class="link">[[Vanisource:Speech to Devotees -- Vrndavana, April 7, 1976|Speech to Devotees -- Vrndavana, April 7, 1976]]: </span><div style="display: inline;" class="text"><p style="display: inline;">
Caitanya Mahāprabhu has said, ''āmāra ājñāya guru hañā tāra ei deśa'' ([[vanisource:CC Madhya 7.128|CC Madhya 7.128]]). ''Ei deśa''. Wherever you are, it doesn't matter. Either you are in India or in America or France or anywhere, any ''deśa'', or any country, wherever you are, just try to deliver them. Because ''guru's ''business is to deliver the fallen souls.

:''saṁsāra-dāvānala-līḍha-loka''
:''trāṇāya kāruṇya-ghanāghanatvam''
:''prāptasya kalyāṇa-guṇārṇavasya''
:''vande guroḥ śrī-caraṇāravindam''

''Guru's'' business is not to exploit the ''śiṣya''. His business, how to deliver. So who can deliver? Who is actually ''guru'' in the ''paramparā ''system? ''Evaṁ paramparā-prāptam imaṁ rājarṣayo viduḥ'' ([[vanisource:BG 4.2 (1972)|BG 4.2]]). So we have to take the authority of become ''guru'' from Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, the same thing. Within five hundred years His order is that ''āmāra ājñāya guru hañā ''([[vanisource:CC Madhya 7.128|CC Madhya 7.128]]): "You cannot become ''guru ''all of a sudden. You must take order from Me." He is ''jagad-guru''. So Caitanya Mahāprabhu says that you, all of you, to become ''guru ''and deliver. Because there are so many innumerable fallen souls in this age—''mandāḥ sumanda-matayo manda-bhāgyā hy upadrutāḥ ''([[vanisource:SB 1.1.10|SB 1.1.10]])—we require hundreds and thousands of ''gurus''. But not cheaters. This is the time when required hundreds and thousands of ''gurus''. But who will become ''guru''? That is Caitanya Mahāprabhu's injunction, ''āmāra ājñāya'': "By My order you become ''guru''. Don't be all of a sudden ''guru''. Become ''guru ''on My order."
