Everything is fine in the service of the Lord
Jadurani dasi: I was doing a sign that he asked me to do upstairs in that first place where he was offering arati, a sign of the Hare Krishna mantra, because there was going to be a big program at Tompkins Square Park. So the sign was about four or five feet on oak tag, and I had to sprawl my whole body across it to reach to the other end. We didn't have easels in those days. So I also apologized to Prabhupada when he came in the room that "I'm sorry that I'm offending the Holy Name."
So he told the story of when Krishna had a headache and the gopis took the dust from their feet to put on His head to relieve His headache, and they didn't care if they would go to hell as long as Krishna would be cured. So when I apologized, Prabhupada told me that story and he said, "It's fine because it's for service."
