Anything that came out of Srila Prabhupada's mouth is based entirely on sastra, so he can be quoted without being made direct reference to also.


i agree completely... but prabhupada is a reference only for who accepts him

so i pray you to use more "neutral" sources to argument with non gaudya vaishnava people.. or their offences will fall also under your responsability

prabhupada quoted his spiritual master in contexts where people accepted bhaktisiddhanta sarasvati as autoritative, with general people he used only logic and sometimes the scriptures, he never risked to hear offences to his master

again i pray you to try to preach avoiding the rising of offences to srila prabhupada, better for you if you use only logic and scripture's verses

there's no use in defeating people making them offend vaishnavas
