thousands of centers may be started

[Guest guest]

I started the center at 26 2nd Ave. alone. ... Still, I was maintaining the

establishment simply depending on Krishna and then Krishna sent me

everything; men and money. Similarly, if a sincere soul goes out and opens a

center in any part of the world, Krishna will help him in all respects.

Without being empowered by Krishna nobody can preach Krishna Consciousness.

It is not academic qualification or financial strength which helps in the

matter, but it is sincerity of purpose which helps us always. ... follow my

example as I did in the beginning at 26 2nd Ave. That is preaching, cooking,

writing, talking, chanting, everything one man's show. I never thought about

the audience. I was prepared to chant even if there were no men present to

hear me. The principle of chanting is to glorify the Lord and not to attract

a crowd. If Krishna hears nicely then he will ask some sincere devotee to

gather in such place. Therefore be advised that thousands of centers may be

started if we find out a sincere soul for each & every center.
