| Nectar Drops from Srila Prabhupada |
"This is Caitanya Mahāprabhu's mission. He says, 'You become a spiritual master'. 'How? I have no qualification.' 'No. You just accept My order.' 'So what is Your order, Sir?' Yāre dekha, tāre kaha 'kṛṣṇa'-upadeśa: 'You simply speak the instruction of Kṛṣṇa whoever you meet. Then you become a spiritual master'. So actually it is happening. We are not wonderful men. But our only business is that we are speaking only the same thing as Kṛṣṇa has spoken. That's all. There is no magic. This is the magic. If you adulterate nonsensically like a rascal, then you cannot become spiritual master. If you simply follow what Kṛṣṇa has spoken, then you become spiritual master. Very simple thing. It doesn't require education. You can hear from your spiritual master what has Kṛṣṇa said. It doesn't require even literacy. There are many great personalities, saintly person. My Guru Mahārāja's Guru Mahārāja, he was illiterate, Gaura Kṛṣṇadāsa Bābājī Mahārāja. He could not sign even his name. But my Guru Mahārāja was the best scholar of his time. He accepted him as guru." |

| Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Like they're creating their own... Prabhupāda: This is the difference between man of knowledge and without knowledge. A man of knowledge will think, "After all, I have to die. So what is the difficulty, dying a few days more or before?" That is knowledge. And those who are not in knowledge, they are afraid of death. Best business is, before the death comes let us finish our Kṛṣṇa consciousness perfectly. That is wanted. Death will come. You cannot avoid it. |
