Varsana das. Diksha: The sacrament of initiation. - 2014. - 126 p.; 21*14 cm
The book "Diksha" will introduce the reader to the sacrament of initiation into Vaishnavas in the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON).
What is diksha? Why receive initiation? Who is a bona fide spiritual master? How to choose a spiritual teacher? What are the student's qualifications? Why do disciples make vows? What does a disciple learn from a guru? These questions have interested the seekers of Truth at all times and will remain relevant for all subsequent generations of Vaishnavas. By acquiring knowledge of diksha, a candidate disciple can consciously approach the process of accepting a spiritual master and understand how to live so that transcendental knowledge manifests in his heart.
