The spiritual master has two kinds of symptoms in his activities. One kind is called constant, and other kind is called temporary. 

So the first verse says that the constant symptom of the spiritual master is that he can deliver his disciple from the blazing fire of this material existence. That is the eternal qualification of the spiritual master. 

(break) ''Trāṇāya kāruṇya-ghanāghanatvam''. ''Trāṇāya'' means for deliverance; ''kāruṇya'' means compassionate, very merciful. The spiritual master comes to the deliverance of the fallen souls out of his causeless mercy. 

Nobody has any business for the sufferings of others. The best example is Lord Jesus Christ, that he suffered for others. And it is the principle, in the Bible, that he accepted all the sins of others. This is the sign of spiritual master, that he voluntarily accepts the sinful activities of others and delivers them. That is the qualification of spiritual master. 

How it is? Just like ''ghanāghanatvam''. ''Ghanāghanatvam'' means dense cloud in the sky. The first example has been said that this material existence is just like forest blazing fire. Now, to extinguish the forest blazing fire, there is no use of sending fire brigade. The fire brigade cannot approach the forest fire; neither any man can go there to extinguish the fire. 

One has to depend completely on the mercy of nature. That means one has to completely depend on the clouds in the sky. Otherwise, there is no question of pouring water on that blazing fire. So the example is very appropriate. As man-made engine or fire brigade is unable to extinguish the forest blazing fire; similarly, the material existential blazing fire cannot be extinguished by any man-made method. </p>
