Forever Grateful to Srila Prabhupada

Thus we can understand that the essence of Krishna consciousness is love -- love for the Supreme Lord and all His parts and parcels. So Prabhupada arrived on the shores of America with a most appealing message at a remarkably appropriate time in the history of the world. Young people everywhere were screaming and clamoring for love, and Prabhupada distributed the highest form of love without charge. "Please chant Hare Krishna and be happy" he would tell us again and again. It's no wonder that Lord Siva proclaims the following: "My dear Parvati, there are different methods of worship, and out of all such methods the worship of the Supreme Person is considered to be the highest. But even higher than the worship of the Lord is the worship of the Lord's devotees." (Lord Siva, Padma Purana)
