Their aims and object is superficially good, that "We altogether preach." But they do not know the ways.


Prabhupāda: Their aims and object is superficially good, that "We altogether preach." But they do not know the ways.

Akṣayānanda: Quite right.

Prabhupāda: That is their defect. Neither they'll take up as it is. So it will be failure.

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: It is already failure.

Akṣayānanda: It is failure.

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: The only success they had here is that they got your darśana and the darśana of Kṛṣṇa-Balarāma. In that sense it was a great success.

Prabhupāda: They do not want anything. They want to assemble together and have some excursion.

Jagadīśa: No more than the croaking of frogs.

Akṣayānanda: Śrīla Prabhupāda, this morning, in the Bhāgavata class, we read a verse how Dhruva Mahārāja—not Dhruva Mahārāja, Bali Mahārāja—had been awarded all material opulences by the Lord, because of his devotion, not because of his puṇya. So I gave lecture to the devotees: in the same way Your Divine Grace, because of your devotion and preaching, Kṛṣṇa has given you every facility for propagating the Kṛṣṇa conscious movement, and although there are other nice movements in India, actually they should all join you. They should all surrender to you. We want that everyone should actually join us at your lotus feet because you have actually been given all śakti by Lord Kṛṣṇa. Kṛṣṇa-śakti vinā nahe tāra pravartana (CC Antya 7.11). So I told the devotees like this: "Do not be misled by others, even though they may be appearing to do nice work." Actually, you are the only one who is really distributing the message of Lord Kṛṣṇa. This is very obvious by the result. These others have not made even one foreign disciple. And if they did make one, he could not give up smoking, drinking and this and that. So there is no benefit whatsoever. Any intelligent person can see. Plus you have given us so much nectar. Prahlāda Mahārāja says mahāmṛta. I always think of that verse. You have given us so much nectar to absorb our minds in. There is really no chance that we will be influenced by these dry personalities.

Prabhupāda: Now you take up seriously and distribute.
