Srimad-Bhagavatam Canto 3: Chapter Thirty-two, Text 42
One must be prepared to offer the necessary respect and
honor to the spiritual master. He should not be unnecessarily envious of his Godbrothers. Rather, if a Godbrother is more enlightened and advanced in Krsna consciousness, one should accept him as almost equal to the spiritual master, and one should be happy to see such Godbrothers advance in Krsna consciousness.
