Srila Maharaj clearly and openly speaks about the minimal standards for the followers of HDG. The series of lectures helped us to understand what minimal standard we as his disciples, have to maintain. the most important, to me, was that just by living in varnashrama, all these standards can be easily practiced. this helped us to travel into the heart of Srila Gurudev and helped us understand our abominable condition and the magnanimous post of Acharyas.

I have a question. If disciple is trying to follow requlative principles but due to conditioning nature fails then what will be his destination (Gati)?
Therefore a guru does not ask something which cannot be followed. And the guru creates a situation where a disciple can follow. If the disciple fails to follow there is only one reason: a disciple rejected the guru because he is not a serious student. There are also cases when the guru is not self-realized, or he is a cheater, then the disciple may reject him and stop to follow. And if the disciple is serious but still has some material desires he may be promoted to heaven, from which he may go further up to the spiritual world, if he or she is still serious. Otherwise he falls down and gets born on earth as human in a brahmin or rich family, to continue practicing the spiritual life.

He will be born again as a human and start from where he left his bhakti. If he becomes too sinful he might become animal.
