Ritvik is when somebody else would initiate you instead of your Guru. It happened alot before prabhupad died. Prabhupad disciples would send there beads to somebody else (because prabhupad wasnt able to initiate all his disciples), they would chant the 1 round on your beads and give you your new name, instead of prabhupad. They are still prabhupad disciples, but their actual initiation wasnt done by prabhupad.
What are their Lordship's names?
