EXCELLENT MASSAGE BY CO-OPERATING
During the two years I spent in Srila Prabhupada's personal service, it became apparent that he wanted us to cooperate. Disagreements have, and may always, be there. Despite our problems it is possible to work together.
Srila Prabhupada sometimes told the story of the sons who were massaging their father. They had some disagreements. One son would poke the father in the back where the other son was massaging and the other son, of course, would do the same. In this way they wereonly successful in hurting the father.
In the course of our arguing, it is important to remember that we are all massaging our father, Srila Prabhupada. The differences mayremain, but by respecting one another as loving children of Srila Prabhupada, we can still provide our father with an excellent massage. ISKCON is Srila Prabhupada's body.
Srila Prabhupada said that his morning walk and massage kept him in good health. While honoring our Godbrothers and Godsisters,let's contribute to the health of our beloved Srila Prabhupada by giving him a good massage. Let our motives and actions be focused on:
"The Glories Of Srila Prabhupada!"
