Prabhupada was so childlike and innocent

Narada Muni das : I remember at one darshan Srila Prabhupada pulled out a letter that had recently been received from a very, very important personality in India, and Srila Prabhupada gave the letter to his secretary to read. He read the letter, and in this letter the person was glorifying Srila Prabhupada for his translations of all the Vedic literatures and appreciating how profound they were and how they were obviously dictated by the Supreme Lord Himself because this could not have been done by any ordinary jiva, any ordinary living being, but someone who is really empowered. I remember Srila Prabhupada's beaming smile. It was very innocent. Srila Prabhupada was always so…in many ways he was so childlike and innocent. He just smiled and, of course, we all said, "Jaya Srila Prabhupada! Jaya Srila Prabhupada!"
