| Nectar Drops from Srila Prabhupada |
| Prabhupāda: Now I have got forty crores. Who has given me? Indian man: Yes. Kṛṣṇa. Prabhupāda: Kṛṣṇa has given me. So depend on Kṛṣṇa. He says, teṣāṁ nityābhiyuktānāṁ yoga-kṣemam (BG 9.22): 'One who is engaged in My service, all that he wants, I supply.' He says. See practically. Whatever we wanted, it is coming. It is coming not for my credit or another, anyone credit, all Kṛṣṇa's credit, He is giving. As soon as He sees that 'They are working for Me', He'll supply everything, whatever you need. Simply we must be sincere and spend it very cautiously, not squandering the money. Then He will give us everything. |
