to BVKS Sanga, (Krsna) Katha, (ISKCON) Lipa Dalmacija, Prabhupada Said
Those who are following in the footsteps of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu should
take the Lord's mission most seriously. In this Age of Kali, people are
gradually becoming less than animals. Nevertheless, although they are eating
the flesh of cows and are envious of brahminical culture, Sri Caitanya
Mahaprabhu is considering how to deliver them from this horrible condition
of life. Thus He asks all Indians to take up His mission:
bharata-bhumite haila manusya-janma yara
janma sarthaka kari' kara para-upakara
"One who has taken his birth as a human being in the land of India
[Bharata-varsa] should make his life successful and work for the benefit of
all other people." (Cc. Adi-lila 9.41)
It is therefore the duty of every advanced and cultured Indian to take this
cause very seriously. All Indians should help the Krsna consciousness
movement in its progress, to the best of their ability. Then they will be
considered real followers of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu. Unfortunately, even
some so-called Vaisnavas enviously refuse to cooperate with this movement
but instead condemn it in so many ways. We are very sorry to say that these
people try to find fault with us, being unnecessarily envious of our
activities, although we are trying to the best of our ability to introduce
the Krsna consciousness movement directly into the countries of the yavanas
and mlecchas. Such yavanas and mlecchas are coming to us and becoming
purified Vaisnavas who follow in the footsteps of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu.
