Language doesn’t matter for Prabhupada

Prasannatma Dasa: There was one time, Marathi version of 'Yoga ki poornata' came. Perfection of Yoga in Marathi, they say 'Yoga ki poornata'. We went and offered that book to Prabhupada along with Lokanath Swami. And Prabhupada said to Lokanatha to read. And Lokanatha Swami read for a few minutes and he stopped. Prabhupada said, "Why are you stopping?" Because Lokanath Maharaja thought this is Marathi and Prabhupada won’t understand. So he should not be wasting Prabhupada’s time, but we did not understand that Prabhupada is so transcendental. Even though he didn't understand materially, the language Marathi, because this is the pastimes of the Lord, he was enjoying the pastimes and meditating on the pastimes of Krishna, not worried about the language.
