A woman's beauty is how she is chaste and devoted to the husband.
During his walk he told us how, according to Canakya, true beauty can be understood. "Man with education is compared with the kokila. The bird, kokila, is very black, but his sound, sweet, so sweet, everyone likes. Kokilanam svaro rupam vidya rupam kurupanam, nari rupam pati-vratah. A woman's beauty is how she is chaste and devoted to the husband. That is beauty, not personal beauty. Education is the beauty for the brain. And those who are saintly person, they should be simply forgiving. That is their beauty."
Though simple points, when understood in the greater context of Srila Prabhupada's mission, each small aspect fits like a clear note into the harmonic melody of Krishna conscious life. And Prabhupada is the expert conductor, in knowledge of all the available elements, masterfully blending them together to produce a beautiful symphony on a universal scale. Every moment with him is an opportunity to learn and to advance another step toward Lord Sri Krishna, the ultimate goal of life.
