Sometimes I think I love my wife and I love my daughter.

Balai : There was one time at 26 2nd Avenue when Srila Prabhupada was in his quarters and my husband, Advaita Das, went in and said, "Srila Prabhupada, sometimes I think I love my wife and I love my daughter. What is that?" Srila Prabhupada explained that one hand cannot love the other hand; it has to go through the stomach. The food has to go through the stomach. So one person cannot love another person without having Krishna as the center.
