Better Late Than Never

Danavir Swami : Prabhupada spoke to guests at the Sunday night programs. At the end of his lecture he asked if there were any questions, and one old lady cried out, "Why have you come so late?" She was practically in tears that she had missed the opportunity to take to Krishna consciousness when she was younger. Prabhupada said, "Because you are so late." On another occasion, another old person asked the same question, and Prabhupada answered in a different way; He said, "Better late than never." Krishna sends the pure devotee when someone's ready. If you're not ready then Krishna won't send.
