According to Krishna Consciousness belief, Swami Bhaktivedanta is "avatar" understood as Krishna's one and only, bona fide representative for our world, 'the transparent via medium between the infinite God and the finite soul' with a world mission to arouse Krishna Consciousness everywhere."
... In my view, the term "transparent via medium" reflects the swami's progressional manifestation in three stages: (1) "medium" indicates the initial "swami" stage of Bhaktivedanta as "sannyasin" and as one in control of his senses; (2) "via" refers to the "guru" stage of the swami as teacher; and (3) "transparent" reflects the present, "avatar" status of the swami as a manifestation of God...
Hence, for the ISKCON devotee, to see Swami Bhaktivedanta is to see Krishna; to hear Swami Bhaktivedanta is to hear Krishna; to please Swami Bhaktivedanta is to please Krishna and to worship Swami Bhaktivedanta is to worship God. In short, "the disciple should accept the spiritual master as God because he is the external manifestation of Krishna."
Thus, the concept of "transparent via medium" defines precisely the mode of Swami Bhaktivedanta's avatar-hood."
