What is the use of millions of stars twinkling? So that is our propaganda. If one man can understand what is Kṛṣṇa philosophy, then my preaching is successful, that's all. We don't want many millions of stars with no light. What is the use of millions of stars with no light? That is Cāṇakya Paṇḍita's advice: varam eka putra na ca mūrkha-śatair api. One son, if he is learned, that is sufficient. Na ca mūrkha-śatair api. What is the use of hundreds of sons, all fools and rascals? Ekaś candras tamo hanti na cittara sahasra. One moon is sufficient to illuminate. There is no need of millions of stars. Similarly, we are not after many millions of disciples. I want to see that one disciple has understood Kṛṣṇa's philosophy.
