Srila Prabhupada Pastimes:68-Defeat scientists and philosophers

Bhargava: Another time we were walking in Paris, when Prabhupada turned to the devotees and said with a serious tone, "I want you to all become Krishna conscious philosophers and to defeat the rascal philosophers and scientists."

A week or so later I was in Prabhupada's Bury Place room with Prabhupada and Kulashekar, a nice, outgoing devotee. His parents, quiet country people, had come to see Prabhupada. Kulashekar had been taking 8mm films of Prabhupada, and he was going to show Prabhupada the films. He went to get his parents so they could watch also. When he went out, I looked at Prabhupada and said, "Prabhupada, these materialistic scientists and philosophers are so strongly entrenched. How will we ever change them?" I don't know how I got the nerve to ask a question like that. Prabhupada looked at me and said, "Whether they change, whether they do not change, still I will go on with my propaganda work." You could almost feel the earth shake when he said that. It was that powerful. His determination was incredible.

Srila Prabhupada pastimes: 67- Who is crying

A Heart Touching Pastime Of Srila Prabhupada Ji.

Sripada Hrdayananda Babaji Maharaja was born in Radha Kunda and has been a pujari for 78 years. He lives next to the Radha Damodara Temple.
At the beginning of the interview, upon being asked if he knew Srila Prabhupada, Babaji Maharaja began to cry, "Never have I seen anyone do sadhana as he did.
I have lived all my life in Vraja and I have never seen anyone like him.
Prabhupada did many arduous things, he worked very hard there at the Radha Damodara Temple. At that time it was austere, undeveloped, and very muddy and dirty with no facilities.”

"Many years later, when I heard that it was actually he who had been chosen by Caitanya Mahaprabhu to spread the Hare Krishna Maha-Mantra around the world, I was not surprised.”
Prabhupada spread this Krishna consciousness by the mercy of Rupa Goswami. Prabhupada used to pray to Rupa Goswami, "You please give me your mercy." And then he got that mercy. I know this because I saw some things he did at the Radha Damodara Temple. My room is still located in the same place as it was then, in 1964 or '65.
Many times in the middle of the night, at midnight or 1 or 2 in the morning, I would hear a voice crying from inside the courtyard by Rupa Goswami's samadhi mandira.
 That voice was calling out and crying but I did not know what it was because I was trying to take rest.
But one night, on the full moon, I heard that voice again, so I climbed up to the roof of our house and looked down into the Radha Damodara courtyard.
 I saw something very amazing. Srila Prabhupada was sweeping the courtyard of Rupa Goswami’s samadhi. He was bending down with a small broom and as he swept the ground by the samadhi, he was crying out, "He Rupa! He Sanatana! He Gurudeva! Please give me your mercy. Without your mercy, I cannot do anything.
Give me the mercy.
Give me the strength that I may fulfill your orders." Then, I realized that it was he who almost every night was calling out as he was sweeping like this."

ALL GLORIES TO HIS DIVINE GRACE A.C. BHAKTIVEDANTA SWAMI SRILA PRABHUPADA !!!
