Conversations and Morning Walks

1971 Conversations and Morning Walks

We have to do our business, despite all hindrances, all obstacles, because we are servant of Kṛṣṇa. That is the thing. We have to remain faithful to our master.

Devotee: If they are hearing, Srila Prabhupada. Somehow or other they are hearing.

Prabhupāda: Yes, yes, any sane man will hear. But the major portion of the so-called leaders in the society, they are . . . (indistinct) . . . and still they are proud. They cannot make a solution, and still they are very much proud of their education, their social status. Just see the illusion.

Devotee: World of names.

Prabhupāda: Huh?

Devotee: World of names.

Prabhupāda: What can be done? But we have to do our business, despite all hindrances, all obstacles, because we are servant of Kṛṣṇa. That is the thing. We have to remain faithful to our master. We don't mind whether ones taking this philosophy or not, that doesn't matter. We have to try our best. But as soon as this service is done with some selfish motive, personal interest, then it is spoilt. Then it is spoilt.

Devotee: Our success is our surrender, and not our . . .

Prabhupāda: Eh?

Devotee: Our success is our surrender.

Prabhupāda: Sometimes we get honor. Just like I have become spiritual master; I am getting honor, I am getting respect. But if I want to utilize your service for my personal comfort and do not actually preach Kṛṣṇa consciousness, then I am another fool. That's all. But as soon as you are surrendered to Kṛṣṇa, your business is done. My business is to introduce you to Kṛṣṇa, to convince you some way or other that Kṛṣṇa is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, you surrender unto Him and you will be happy. That is my business.
