PRABHUPADA LILAMTRA AS IT IS

|
"When the Lord is unhappy because of
the condition of the fallen souls, the devotee consoles Him, saying, "My
dear Lord, do not be in anxiety." This is service."
|
|
"One who tries to relieve Sri Caitanya
Mahaprabhu's anxiety for the fallen souls
is certainly a most dear
and confidential
devotee of the Lord."
|
|
"To blaspheme such a devotee who is trying his best to spread the cult of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu is the greatest offense. One who does so is simply awaiting punishment for his envy."

TRANSLATION: Haridasa Thakura
replied, "My dear Lord, do not be in anxiety. Do not be unhappy
to see the condition of the yavanas in material existence.
PURPORT:
These words of Haridasa Thakura are just befitting a devotee who has
dedicated his life and soul to the service of the Lord. When
the Lord is unhappy because of the condition of the fallen souls, the
devotee consoles Him, saying, "My dear Lord, do not be in anxiety."
This is service. Everyone should adopt the cause of Sri Caitanya
Mahaprabhu to try to relieve Him from the anxiety He feels. This is
actually service to the Lord. One who tries to relieve Sri Caitanya
Mahaprabhu's anxiety for the fallen souls is certainly a most dear and
confidential devotee of the Lord. To blaspheme such a devotee who is
trying his best to spread the cult of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu is the
greatest offense. One who does so is simply awaiting punishment for
his envy.
(C.C.
Antya Lila 3.52)

Dear Prabhu's please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. Please forgive my offenses. I humbly request you to send any quotes from Srila Prabhupada which describe his transcendental qualities and pastimes. In this way together we may be able to compile a book for his glorification and our meditation on his exalted personality. Thankyou. Your servant Mukunda dasa.
