1. Follow the supreme leader

    By nature we are destined to follow a leader. Nobody is independent. Even in the animal society, the animals, they have also got a group, and there is leader of the group. And we are trying to make some group according to the similarly of thought and propensities. There are association, you know, various association, mercantile association, bankers’ association, lawyers’ association, and there is a leader. That is the nature’s way. Now, the supreme leader is Sri Krsna. That we do not know. Supreme leader, the leadership is accepted, but we do not know that the supreme leader is the Supreme Lord, or Krsna.
