Nectar Drops from Srila Prabhupada
"Yamarāja is a great devotee, Vaiṣṇava. We should not be afraid of Yamarāja. Those who are devotees, they are . . . Yamarāja says that, "I offer them respect, my obeisances." He advised his messengers that, "Don't go to my devotees. They are to be offered respect by me. You go to persons who are reluctant to chant Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra. You go there and bring them here for judgment." The Christian also believe "The day of judgment." The judgment is given by Yamarāja. But who goes to his court for judgment? The criminals, those who are not devotees, those who are not Kṛṣṇa conscious, they go to the court of Yamarāja. So in other words, it is the duty of the Yamarāja to see that everyone is becoming Kṛṣṇa conscious."
