Airline Hostess
Prabhupad was travelling to South America with his two servants, the temple where they'd been gave them a packed lunch for the plane, so in the air Srutakirti Prabhupad's servant opened Prabhupad's lunch pack and served him his prasadam of puffed rice and peanuts. Prabhupad had his fill and handed over the remnants to Srutakirti who'd just began eating when the lady air hostess comes over and in one motion says that looks tasty and grabs a handful throws it in her mouth. Prabhupad smiled, Srutakirti was somewhat shocked. She then asked why bring your own food. Srutakirti informed her that they are vegetarians etc etc. She immediately said is there anything else I can get you, fruit milk? Prabhupad said "Hot milk". Five minutes later she returned with three cups of hot milk she got from First class. Prabhupad thanked her and the devotees discussed among themselves Prabhupad remarking that it is a natural nature of a pious woman to serve....... Anyway over the years this had become one of Srutakirti's favourite Prabhupad pastime stories to tell.
Anyway now part two, he was recently again in South America doing a preaching tour enlivening devotees there (and selling his book "What is the difficulty?") and he told that story in Brazil. Afterward one devotee came up to him and asked would Srutakirti prabhu like to hear an amazing story? This devotee was out in some remote village going door to door selling books when he knocked on a door a lady opened the door wearing tilak. She then invited the devotee in and her house was like a little temple,an altar with Deities, pictures on the walls and all of Prabhupad's books in Portuguese in her bookshelf. The devotee just had to ask her how she became a devotee....... She said she used to be an airline hostess some years ago and she met the author of these books, he was so saintly and gentle and kind that she looked up who he was and what he did from his boarding pass name. She then got some of his books and began to read, they said to chant so she chanted and offer her food to Krishna, so she did all that and became a devotee from that small contact.... Srutakirti was amazed, while at the same time understood the potency of Prasadam and even a moments association with a pure devotee like Srila Prabhupad. Now that has become one of Srutakirti's favourite stories to tell also.

Personal misunderstanding
There is competition of loving Krishna even in the party of Srimati Radharani.
It is a kind of rasa to compete in loving affection centering around Krishna.
Even amongst our God-brothers we have misunderstanding
but none of us is astray from the service of Krishna.
My Guru Maharaja ordered us to execute his mission combinedly.

Engage Whatever Talents We Have Already Got
Anyone's special talent should be engaged in the service of the Lord, and thereby become successful in life….. We are not meant for learning something new for the service of the Lord; but we have to engage whatever talents we have already got. - Letter to: Murari, Vrindavan, August 3, 1967

Why we Love Bodies
By His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada
Just like we take care of our body. We want to keep body very fit, healthy and beautiful, very nicely kept. Why? Why we take care of our body? Because I, the spirit soul, part and parcel of Krsna, I am living in this body. Therefore I take care of my body. Nobody takes care of the dead body. This is a fact. Either I take care of my body, or my family's body, or my wife's body, or my children's body.
Why? Because the part and parcel of Krsna is there. The soul is there. And as soon as the soul is gone, the part and parcel is gone from the body, the body has no value. Throw it away. The same body. This is practical. Therefore I love my body because the part and parcel of Krsna is there. Or you love your body. I love your body. Only for the reason.
