Jayapataka: (break) Why did Kṛṣṇa have all the demigod worship put in the Vedas?
Prabhupāda: Hm?
Jayapataka: They put... Vyāsadeva put all the demigod worship in the Vedas.

Prabhupāda: No, if he comes to Kṛṣṇa on any account he will become devotee.
Yaśomatī-nandana: Right. But he will come to Kṛṣṇa only if he comes in contact with His devotee.
Prabhupāda: Hm?
Yaśomatī-nandana: It appears that we came to Kṛṣṇa consciousness even though we were in a very low stage.
