By simple definition it is hard to see how one could be receiving the 'principle active ingredient' of diksa but not be receiving diksa. To get around this the GBC would in effect have to insert another clause like the D.A.D.S. clause mentioned above, which re-defined Diksa so that the 'principle active ingredient of diksa' would NOT be enough to constitute diksa, unless say something else, like 'formal initiation', had also been received from Srila Prabhupada. We have already noted how such a proposition just by definition would be absurd, since the 'principle active ingredient' of diksa would be what constituted Diksa. In other words, the spiritual master awakens the sleeping living entity to his original consciousness so that he can worship Lord Visnu. This is the purpose of diksa, or initiation.
Initiation means receiving the pure knowledge of spiritual consciousness.
Diksa actually means initiating a disciple with transcendental knowledge by which he becomes freed from all material contamination. Diksa is the process by which one can awaken his transcendental knowledge and vanquish all reactions caused by sinful activity. A person expert in the study of the revealed scriptures knows this process as diksa. Due to the lack of either a D.A.D.S. or D.I.D.S. clause, we are left with the fact that the person who is responsible for transmitting the 'principle active ingredient of diksa' is transmitting diksa. And the person who is responsible for giving us diksa, must be the diksa guru.
