Remembering'' Srila Prabhupada'' - Our only hope is Krishna

[Guest guest]

May 8

 

 

At lunch there was excessive ghee in one preparation.

Prabhupada complained not about the ghee but about the

fact that there were no chilies. He said that even

when there was too much ghee, if chilies were also

eaten there was no trouble digesting the food.

Prabhupada suggested we hire a local cook to prepare

food for the devotees. He said we should avoid eating

at a hotel or purchasing hotel food for our regular

meal.

Remembering that chilies had been left out of the

earlier prasadam because of the cook's forgetfulness,

Srila Prabhupada pronounced that because of so much

sex indulgence in our previous lives, we had become

physically and mentally zero with no brains. Our only

hope was Krsna consciousness, which was beyond any

mental and physical considerations.

Public darsana hour was from five to six o'clock in

the evening. News of the arrival of His Divine Grace

had already spread throughout Rishikesh, and many

persons were eager for the pure devotee's association.

About forty persons from many nations attended. Srila

Prabhupada spoke about the essence of Bhagavad-gita,

"dehino 'smin yatha dehe," and a very lively question

and answer session followed, lasting half an hour.

Prabhupada was uncompromising and devastating in his

replies: "You cannot understand because you are crazy.

Your compassion is as valuable as blowing air on a

boil to heal it." Everyone left in a state of

amazement at the power and purity of Krsna's

representative. Many more will come tomorrow.

Prabhupada ordered that kirtana be held mornings and

evenings. This was not a hotel for eating and

sleeping.
