Did Lord Caitanya take sannyāsa from a Māyāvādī sannyāsī?
Madhudviṣa - "Prabhupāda did Lord Caitanya take sannyāsa from a Māyāvādī sannyāsī?
Srila Prabhupāda - "Yes. That is a formality. That is not very important. Because Māyāvādī Sannyāsīs, they are also Vedic sannyāsī. They are not outsiders. But their interpretation of Veda is different. But they follow the Vedic rules.
So this acceptance of sannyāsa is following a principle of the Vedic rules.
So the Māyāvādī sannyāsī may differ in his interpretation, but he's following the Vedic rules.
PSo this acceptance of sannyāsa is following the Vedic rules. So you can accept sannyāsa even from Māyāvādī. It doesn't matter.

But you have to transcend the limits of Vedic rules. That is Kṛṣṇa consciousness.
