<span class="link">[[Vanisource:Room Conversations -- February 20, 1977, Mayapura|Room Conversations -- February 20, 1977, Mayapura]]: </span><div class="text"><p style="display: inline;">Prabhupāda: Dr. Bose, Kartik Chandra Bose, his father was a go-down clerk in a tanner position(?). So in go-down, dāl go-down, dāl was falling down from the bag. Dr. Bose, Kartik Chandra Bose, he was a boy, he was taking the dāl and trying to push within the hole. So his father's name was Prasana(?) Bose. His master was a European. He said, "Oh, this boy will be very big man, your son." So he had no idea how to save it, but he was trying to. Dr. Bose personally told me that "I was trying to push the dāl through the hole within the bag." That is not possible, but he did not want to see waste. Why things should be wasted? Immediately that Mr. Morrison said to Prasana Bose, "Your this child will be..." So I had the same tendency. Dr. Bose liked me very much. Very much. He found me a prototype boy.</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: More than his own sons.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Of course, own son is own son, but he liked me very much, very, very much. He selected.</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Above other more senior men.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes. Yes, selected me. "Someday I shall appoint him manager."</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: The other people working there couldn't understand that so easily.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Three, four men liked me very, very much. One is my father, one is Dr. Bose, Kartik Chandra, one my Guru Mahārāja, and..., who else? One, my maternal uncle. Rakal Chandrardha. He was very rich man.</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: What was his name?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Rakal Chandrardha(?). He has got a street. He liked me. He's known to(?) take care of his son very nice.</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Your mother's brother.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Not real, but cousin.</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Your mother's...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: My mother is the brother's daughter, and he was the sister daughter. Just like our this nephew, first cousin.</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: That's a close relationship.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes. So he treated... Although my mother was first cousin, he treated my mother as younger sister. In that way he liked my father also, myself. That gentleman and one Dr. Kartik Chandra Bose, and two-one, my own father and my Guru Mahārāja. I knew that. He liked me. He liked me from the very heart. Guru Mahārāja liked me. I know. By his blessing it is, everything has happened. I was not worth. What did I...? I do not know why he liked. I was not worth. There were so many disciples. And still, he liked me.</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: He could see how pure you were.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Maybe. Out of his affection, it is his good will. He can like anyone, any dog, doesn't matter. But I know he liked me. Anyone, by his choice of free will, he can love any damn thing. It doesn't matter. That is called kṛpā-siddhi. "I like this man. This man must be prominent." That is his will. It doesn't matter on qualification. So all these people, they liked me not on my qualification, but out of affection, out of good will. (laughs) Other, a woman. Woman means my mother-in-law. She was woman. Out of affection for her daughter, she would sacrifice everything for the..., so that her daughter may not be unhappy.</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Your mother-in-law. You said that when you took sannyāsa, she could not take it.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No, I must admit she was very, very kind. Very, very kind. Although she's woman, but on account of her daughter... Whatever I'll command, she'll suffer. Devarṣi-bhūtāpta-nṛṇāṁ pitṟṇām ([[Vanisource:SB 11.5.41|SB 11.5.41]]). We become indebted in this way with so many people. Devarṣi.</p>
