Always be careful. You are dealing with Krsna!<br \/>\nThere is a Vamsidasa Babaji Maharaja, he was talking with his Deity. And Krsna\u2026 Just like Madana-mohana, He was talking with Sanatana Gosvami.<br \/>\nMadana-mohana\u2026 Sanatana Gosvami at that time had no temple; he was hanging his Deity on the tree. So Madana-mohana was talking with him, \u201cSanatana, you are bringing all these dry capatis, and it is stale, and you don\u2019t give Me even little salt. How can I eat?\u201d Sanatana Gosvami said, \u201cSir, where shall I go? Whatever I get I offer You. You kindly accept. I cannot move, old man.\u201d You see. So Krsna had to eat that. (chuckles) Because the bhakta is offering He cannot refuse.<br \/>\nYe mam bhaktya prayacchati. Real thing is bhakti. What you can offer to Krsna? Everything belongs to Krsna. What you have got? What is your value? And what is the value of your things? It is nothing.<br \/>\nTherefore real thing is bhaktya, real thing is your feeling. \u201cKrsna, kindly take it. I have no qualification. I am most rotten, fallen, but (begins to cry) I have brought this thing for you. Please take it.\u201d This will be accepted. Don\u2019t be puffed up. Always be careful. You are dealing with Krsna. That is my request. Thank you very much.<br \/>\nSrila Prabhupada, Sri Sri Rukmini Dvarakanatha Deity Installation \u2013 Los Angeles, July 16, 1969<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/40.media.tumblr.com\/3d3764c58f0c01b485993bd82ac1f85c\/tumblr_o0okd9TlW01sbj0vuo1_500.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>Srila Prabhupada: Don&rsquo;t be puffed up.
