Following Srila Prabhupada

Interview DVD 05

Pankajanghri: It was in his room and all the leading devotees were there. It was really silent, it got pretty heavy then. Prabhupada was just looking around at everyone and he wasn’t saying anything. Then he said, “So, there are no questions?” and nobody answered. It got even more heavy. Prabhupada said, “Why there are no questions?” It got even more intense. “It is the disciple’s duty to question the spiritual master. Why there are no questions?” Then somebody said, “Srila Prabhupada, in Srimad-Bhagavatam such person said this, is this right?” He said, “Fool! It says in the Bhagavatamand you ask me if it is right? What kind of question is this?” Then it got even more intense. Then Hridayananda Maharaj asked a pertinent question and it broke the ice.
