What is “paripraśnena sevayā”? What are the qualifications of a student?
“It is recommended that one, first of all, develop the proper mood and mentality. There is a mood and a mentality that one should have in asking questions. That is the first point explained by Lord Krishna. hmm..praṇipāt humble. Then secondly, praśna…one be, one should be asking in that submissive mentality. Questions. And then numbers three, one should be ready and willing to engage in sevā or devotional service. So when these three components are there, there can be a productive exchange between the person asking and replying to that question.”
