As I understand from one of the lecture given by my Siksa Guru HG Harikirtan Ranjan Das the real meaning of INITIATION was that one who gave-up his freedom towards his Guru.
By remembering this statement, it reminds me of His Holiness Jayapataka Swami Guru Maharaj who is a live role model for us to understand how he exhibits the real meaning of taking Initiation by surrendering his freedom to his Guru Maharaja His Divine Grace A.C. Bakthivendanta Swami Srila Prabupad. Just by surrendering and executing all his duties inline with his Guru’s instruction at all times even by not considering his personal health but lives for propagating the Krshna Consciousnesss movement as his primary business.
