Krishna sees, Here is a devotee, and He helps

Satsvarupa Dasa Goswami: We are walking in this nice park, but padam padam at any moment there can be revolution. It can all be fire. They do not know. They are dull. Although Krishna gives a plain example, baby becomes boy. Is there any example of a baby remaining permanently a baby? Therefore, our only hope is to distribute books so that someday the people will understand that they are not this body. That day will come when these books will be appreciated as valuable. About Denver center, we said they were distributing books. Yes, wherever you can distribute books is a good place. Make vigorous propaganda against fake gurus. Guru Maharaji says he's God, so you say publicly, I kick on your face if you are God. Then punish me with your mantra, your will, or whatever. He called me in while he was taking breakfast. Asked further about Maharishi's university. How can they teach regular subjects with TM since TM isn't a science?

Meditation is, of course, spiritual, but not as he does it, with sense gratification. What use is teaching ordinary subjects? Then he said we could do it we have so many books. I suggested Gainesville, where we wanted to start our own university to teach only Vedic subjects. He seemed to like it. One Mayavadi sannyasi came. Prabhupada quoted so much Gita. Samah sarvesu yes, but it means the same Supersoul is in each heart. Krishna cleans the heart of the devotee, whereas yogis try to clean their own hearts. You can imagine which is better. Tesam satatam yuktanam. Krishna sees, Here is a devotee, and He helps.
