"100 Deviations of Ritvikism, ritvik mayavada sata dushani," focuses on criticizing Ritvikism as a philosophical deviation within the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON) (0:05-0:08).

Here are the main points discussed:

Definition and Rejection of Ritvikism: The video defines Ritvikism as the doctrine that Srila Prabhupada desired to continue acting as a diksha-guru (initiating spiritual master) after his departure and did not want any of his disciples to give diksha in succession (1:17-1:33). This is labeled a "dangerous philosophical deviation" that goes against the principle of parampara (disciplic succession) (1:33-1:41).
Contradiction of Disciplic Succession: The speaker emphasizes that the concept of disciplic succession means knowledge flows from top to bottom, implying that disciples should become qualified to be successors and teachers (3:33-4:00). It's argued that just as a son becomes a father, a follower today becomes a leader tomorrow (4:01-4:06).
Srila Prabhupada's Physical Absence: The video clarifies that Srila Prabhupada physically departed in 1977 and is not "legally present" to sign documents or agreements (4:15-4:32). While he is present through his disciples, instructions, and books on a subtle level, he is not present on a gross level (4:32-4:44).
Criticism of Ritvik Philosophy: The core problem with Ritvikism is described as followers wanting to bypass Srila Prabhupada's disciples and directly become teachers, which is attributed to false ego and pride in material knowledge (5:30-5:53, 11:44-12:10). The speaker suggests that many Ritviks are highly educated but use their intelligence to cause disturbances to the Sankirtana movement (12:10-12:51).
Comparison to Mayavada Philosophy: Ritvikism is repeatedly referred to as "Mayavada" (6:04-6:15), which is a philosophy where one believes they are God or one with God, in contrast to the Vaishnava philosophy of becoming a servant of servants (5:59-6:03, 6:04-6:11). The video warns against associating with Mayavadis, as it leads to pollution (6:30-6:42).
Impact on ISKCON and Devotees: The video claims that Ritviks associate with "Karma Kandis" and "Mayavadis" (6:31-6:37), and that they give diksha to unqualified persons for the sake of running institutions (7:51-8:01). It is also asserted that Ritviks are causing people to lose faith in harinam (chanting the holy name) by focusing on mundane social welfare activities instead of sastra (scripture) (13:19-14:02).
Importance of Experience and Gurus: The video reiterates the importance of learning from experienced persons and taking knowledge from realized souls (15:17-15:41), emphasizing that this is the role of teachers and Gurus.

We work not with our body, actually, but with our mind and intelligence. So if the intelligence and the mind are always engaged in the thought of the Supreme Lord, then naturally the senses are also engaged in His service. Superficially, at least, the activities of the senses remain the same, but the consciousness is changed. The Bhagavad-gita teaches one how to absorb the mind and intelligence in the thought of the Lord. Such absorption will enable one to transfer himself to the kingdom of the Lord. If the mind is engaged in Krishna’s service, then the senses are automatically engaged in His service. This is the art, and this is also the secret of Bhagavad-gita: total absorption in the thought of Sri Krishna.
