How fortunate are we that somehow or other we just took birth in the right universe – because there are lots of universes, and we just happened to be in the right one, just at the right time! And so shortly after Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu appeared! And then the teachings of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, well they are still a bit difficult for us. And then Prabhupada came and made it more simple!
And how fortunate are we that we are just here right after Prabhupada in the right universe! Just sort of walking around here. And we just walk in the door, say: “Well I like the halava and the pakora!” And we have no idea about all that mercy, which has been all packed together by all these Acaryas. And then they say: “Here’s the mercy!”
And we go “Oh, well I don’t know hey….”
Anyway in between the pakora and the halava we take a book home. And somehow or other we join the movement. And even when we are part of it, we hardly know, what we’re actually part of! But somehow or other we are here.
How amazing is our fortune! It’s just inconceivable. And we are just part of it all and we have no idea, no idea what it is even!
“But I guess I’ll stay…”
