Srimad-Bhagavatam Lectures
He's always busy how to make you happy, how to make without any cares, anxiety. This is duty of the President
Lecture on SB 1.16.21 -- Hawaii, January 17, 1974: So our principle is that Krsna should be accepted as the leader because Krsna says in the Bhagavad-gita, mattah parataram nanyat kincid asti dhananjaya [Bg. 7.7]. Krsna is the supreme leader. Eko bahu..., nityo nityanam cetanas cetananam eko yo bahunam vidadhati (Katha Upanisad 2.2.13). Leader means he must... Just like father. Father is the leader of the family. And why father is the leader? Because he earns, he maintains the children, wife, servant, and establishment; therefore naturally, he's accepted the leader of the family. Similarly, you accept the President Nixon as the leader of your country because in dangerous time he gives direction, in peace time he gives direction. He's always busy how to make you happy, how to make without any cares, anxiety. This is duty of the President. Otherwise, why you select one President? Any man can live without any President, but no, it is required.
