Guest guest Posted August 28, 2003 Report Share Posted August 28, 2003 This morning my older godbrother Rasamrta prabhu told me what he saw and heard directly from Srila Prabhupada many years ago in New York. In Brooklyn, Prabhupada was speaking before the devotees when he looked at a picture of Krsna with the cows and cowherd boys, across the room from him. Gazing at it, he told the devotees that when a pure devotee sees such pictures, he sees much more than others can see. In addition to Krsna, the cowherd boys , land, and cows, a pure devotee can see that one cow has a tear coming from her eye. Srila Prabhupada asked the devotees why, but no one could answer. He then explained that this one cow was completely overwhelmed with love, because the little calf that Krsna was holding was her own calf. Later he added that out of profound humility and respect, every single blade of grass in the picture was inclining towrds Kåñëa’s lotus feet. All of the devotees were fairly stunned to hear this revelation, especially because it seemed ! that Srila Prabhupada had such a direct perception of the spiritual world.
