Krishna Nandini dasi shared wonderful memories of meeting Srila Prabhupada in Dallas at the time of the installation of Sri Sri Radha-Kalachandji.
“Srila Prabhupada has given us the key to happiness, which is what our soul is hankering for. If we actually at all appreciate that, it is our job to share that same love that Srila Prabhupada shared with everybody else — without discrimination. Krishna just loves every single living entity; there is no living entity that Krishna does not love. And the greatest service that we can do — if we want to please Radha, if we want to please Krishna — is to share this love with others and to make sacrifices like Srila Prabupada did, to do that. Here was Srila Prabhupada, seventy something years old, heart attack, dealing with crazy, weird people. But he did it because he loved Radha and Krishna. He did it because he felt he had an obligation to his guru. And this is our responsibility as well. So here I sit forty years later. And I am telling you all: this has not been an easy path. I would not dare to tell you that it has been. This path has been fraught with difficulties and challenges and pains and tears. But I wouldn’t trade a single ounce of it.”
