Don't See God, Let Him See You - Prabhupada 0173



740512 - Lecture BG 12.13-14 - Bombay

My Guru Mahārāja used to say that, "You don't try to see God." Just try to understand. "Just work in such a way that God may see you." This is the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement. Everyone is busy to see God. Of course, it is not so easy to see God. But a devotee is not busy to see God, but he wants God to see him. Just like if you are working in some establishment, if you are working very nicely, faithfully, then the proprietor will automatically see you. Don't try to see the proprietor. Work in such a way that the proprietor will be inclined, ""Well, this man is working very nicely. Who is this man?""

So that is our business. That is the teaching of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu"
