Subject: Remembering Srila Prabhupada - Drops of nectar

"I want to live a little longer to make more perfect

everything," Srila Prabhupada said.

"Will you do this by enthusing the devotees by staying

with them, or is there a specific program?" I asked.

"A specific program," he replied. "I want to introduce

varnasrama. At our New York farm, the biggest problem

of life is solved: food."

Prabhupada said about management, "Each of our biggest

centers should have a big devotee permanently; and

unless absolutely necessary, he should not be

changed."

Prabhupada announced, "As soon as I get green card, I

will go to New York."

"How long will you stay there?" I asked.

"As long as you like."

"Srila Prabhupada, you are just like a cow. You will

go wherever we lead you, but you never stop giving

milk.

"That is because I am a surabhi cow. The building in

New York is sufficient for our temple, but you can get

me a nice residential building."

After many months of preaching in Communist Europe,

Ghanasyama finally came out. Throughout his travels,

his reports had brought so much pleasure to His Divine

Grace. Now he came before Srila Prabhupada, who asked

him to come close. Then with great affection,

Prabhupada stroked his head and neck for a long time.

"This is the parampara system," Srila Prabhupada said.

"My Guru Maharaja pushed me, I am pushing you, and you

are pushing others. Just like a train. At our farm in

Pennsylvania, we are getting so much food without

philosophy. In the Communist countries they get no

food. Nature will not supply them. Sugar, wheat, rice,

milk and fruit. As they make their Communist program,

these things will finish. It is stated in the

Srimad-Bhagavatam. You can tell them frankly, 'If you

don't take to Krsna consciousness, these things will

not be available. Then you eat your philosophy; you

eat your own son's fetus.'"
