Prabhupada Knows Everything
Sometimes devotees see me, a sannyasi, and ask, "How have you become so spiritually advanced?" Of course, I know more about my position than they do. Simply officially taking sannyasa is no cure for the nonsense mind. One thing, though, is that I never doubted anything Prabhupada said. I know that everything Srila Prabhupada says is right. Prabhupada knows Krsna; therefore he knows everything. If anyone thinks that Srila Prabhupada made a mistake, then he made a mistak

On Representing Srila Prabhupada
Nowadays I'm getting many letters, mostly from people met on preaching travels or who have read my books. Many ask for advice, and I reply, advising as Srila Prabhupada advised us. The replies are often filled with tremendous gratefulness. People become so enlivened to get what seems to me straightforward advice like, "Try to chant Hare Krsna attentively and read Srila Prabhupada's books every day." So much affection is being showered on me through the mail. I har
