Dear Sir, Sastra Prohibits in taking the name of the guru. We have to analyze or interpret whether he is talking or sharing the correct knowledge or not. if guru wants he can take his disciple name once or twice in vyaharika purpose if he wishes to do but not the otherway.
Swamy Yukteswar always insisted many people in not taking the names of any body more than twice while discussing the knowledge.
One of the major disadvantage in taking the name is that it creates un-necessary havoc among the disciples and ultimately it ends in making a forum with some money with out serving the actual objective of the relationship.
I can explain and make convince anybody why we should not take the name of the guru.
Sri Guru Padaravindarpana MastuKameswara

Namaste Sri Sreenivasa Murthy Mahodaya
You have kept on saying your Revered Guru taught you. Kindly tell us who is
your Guru? What is his name? Where did he live and what is his life history?
