    Devotees in ISKCON needs better education of our philosophy

    A really brilliant example of how a well known Bhagavad-gita 10.9 sloka is applied into practice: mac-citta mad-gata-prana, bodhayantah parasparam kathayantas ca mam nityam, tusyanti ca ramanti ca.

    Thank you very much Guru Maharaja for showing and teaching us such a nice example of what actually should be Sadhu-sanga amongst like-minded devotees in our modern day Vaisnava community.

    Always your humble servant Radha Govinda Dasa.

    Whatever the number of servants this king had.. im sure that these sorts of statements were put in to the sastra in order to provoke these kinds of sadhu sangas all about them… i have to say that i found listening to the discourse between the devotees and Srila Prabhupada very funny.. and it so reflects Srila Prabupada’s way of dealing with questions and problems that seemed to arise.. bottom line approach at all times.. you take it or leave it!! thank you for this.. wonderful discussion..
