I am a Surabhi cow

Sruti Rupa : Tamal Krishna Maharaj came in with the green card and said, "Prabhupada, America is waiting for you. Customs is ready; immigration is ready. Everything is cleared." Prabhupada immediately began to cry. He said, "I am so indebted to America. America has given me so much. It's given me men, money. I am so indebted."

Prabhupada showed softness. Tamal Krishna Maharaj said, "Prabhupada, once you said that you were like a cow and wherever your devotees led you, you would go there and give milk. But there's one thing I don't understand. Somehow or other you never dry up, you are always giving." Prabhupada smiled and said, "Yes, that is because I am a surabhi cow." We all started to laugh.
