Yes. It's certainly fitting title for Srila Gour Govinda Swami Maharaja, although he personally wanted to be addressed as "Sri Srimad" and not more than that. "To take shelter of the lotus feet of the Lord means to take shelter of the pure devotees. The pure devotees, whose only business is serving the Lord, are honored by the names Prabhupāda and Viṣṇupāda, which indicate such devotees to be representatives of the lotus feet of the Lord." Srimad Bhagavatam 1.1.15
Hare Krishna Jai Srila Prabhupad Actually i do not know whether i should put this ques or not... I am very very neophyte to Krishna / Goudiya philosophy..going to local ISKCOn temple and reading only HDG Srila Prabhupada books and following his lectures and also by happenstance I started following H.H Srimad Gour Govinda Goswami Maharaj here on youtube since last year.. So i only beg to ask whether any disciple of HH Swami Maharaj gives initiation or not in India 🙏🙏
Hare Krsna! First you have to be convinced and then convince Krsna that you really want to surrender unto Him. If Krsna is pleased with your sincerity, He will send you a bona fide guru. Please study Srila Gour Govinda Swami Maharaja's book Pariprasna. Guru-tattva is very nicely explained there, it will help you to understand properly, how to get a bona fide guru. I can send you the book, please contact me by email: srivaspandit108@gmail.com
