In appreciation of the service rendered by his disciples, Srila Prabhupada once said that his guru maharaja, Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati, had sent them to help him in his preaching mission.
One disciple spoke up and said, “But Srila Prabhupada how could that be? We were so sinful before we met you.”
Srila Prabhupada replied, “That is superficial. As soon as you heard the chanting of Hare Krsna you all came running!”
