P. 7
If to carry out the command of the Vaiñëava guru I have to be arrogant
or brutish, or suffer eternal perdition, I am prepared to welcome such eternal
damnation and even sign a contract to that effect. I will not listen to the words
of malicious persons in lieu of the command of Çré Gurudeva. I will dissipate
with indomitable courage and conviction the currents of thought of the rest of
the world, relying on the strength derived from the lotus feet of Çré Gurudeva. I
confess to this arrogance.
