1. “Just see”

    Stories often floated around about Prabhupada. I had recently heard a fantastic story from several devotees who obviously accepted it as true. I had my doubts and decided to ask Prabhupada directly.

    "Prabhupada, some devotees told me a story that I wanted to ask you about. The story was that you were in your room with Visnujana Maharaja and he asked you about your rasa. The way I heard the story was that you started glowing brighter and brighter until Visnujana Maharaja crawled out of the room. Did that happen?"

    Prabhupada smiled, leaned back, and expanded his smile even further. "Just see," he said while shaking his head.

    Prabhupada's "just see" and his expression told it all. The remainder of the sentence — "the nonsense that people are speaking" — was clearly understood.
