1. Srila Prabhupada, an Enemy in West and East

    When I come to India, they say that I am spoiling Hindu system of religion. And when I go there, the Christian says that “You are the greatest enemy.” (laughter) This is my position: If I go ahead, then… And if I go behind, then… So what can be done? I have to execute my duty. I am not encouraged by the government, by my godbrothers, and still I have to do this duty. What can be done?

    From Srila Prabhupada’s lecture on The Nectar of Devotion — Vrndavana, October 16, 1972
