Prabhupada's supervision for a bona fide way to do things
Dayananda : Vishnujana and the other devotees who did puppet shows were practicing one that depicted Narada Muni asking Krishna, What's maya? Then all of a sudden Narada Muni is in the desert, gets married, has a family, and the family gets washed away in a flood. Narada Muni calls out, Oh, Krishna, my family! and then once again he's back with Krishna. But this is not a bona fide story. The devotees were practicing this show in a parking lot outside of Prabhupada's quarters, and Prabhupada saw them. He didn't like it. He said, "What story is that? What story are they doing?" They told him, You know Prabhupada, that one about Narada Muni falling into maya. Prabhupada said, "Narada Muni doesn't fall into maya." Prabhupada checked it. He was always supervising to see that things were done in a bona fide way.
