Sometimes Krishna Takes Away Our Valuables - Prabhupada 0712



690417 - Lecture - New York

Ārādhito yadi haris tapasā tataḥ kim (Nārada Pañcarātra).

Govinda ādi-puruṣa is known as Hari. Hari means "who takes away all your miseries." That is Hari. Harā. Harā means taking away. Harate. So just like thief also takes away, but he takes away the valuable things, material consideration, sometimes Kṛṣṇa also takes away your material valuables just to show you special favor, yasyāham anugṛhṇāmi hariṣye tad-dhanaṁ śanaiḥ (SB 10.88.8).
