The Influence of Srila Prabhupada
Just see the influence of Srila Prabhupada! Lying on his bed in Vrndavana, at the last stage he was hardly able to move, eat or talk. Yet without even doing anything or going anywhere, he was inspiring his disciples all over the world to distribute his books in unprecedented numbers. His going to London in that condition was another incredible pastime that clearly sets Srila Prabhupada apart from the rest. There, his disciples danced with full enthusiasm before the almost completely immobile Prabhupada. But when Srila Prabhupada slightly moved his finger to indicate even more heavy dancing, the devotees went wild and almost jumped through the ceiling. Srila Prabhupada's influence came, not from mind-control, bribery or force, but was born of deep and powerful love.
