Prabhupada Preached
I was always interested in seeing how Prabhupada managed, because there are different management styles. I wondered how Prabhupada managed the movement, because generally managers of an international society have many secretaries, telephones, desks, offices, and so on. But every time I was with Srila Prabhupada, no management went on. He preached. There was never a time I was with him that he was rushing as we do with this emergency, that emergency. He had a totally different way of dealing with things. He didn’t use the phone, but he wrote letters. Every time I was with Prabhupada, he was either hearing about Krishna or preaching to devotees. When I sat with him I thought, “How is Prabhupada managing this international society? Every time I’m with him, he’s always preaching. He’s not talking about any of the problems, and he’s not talking about management.” I was awestruck by Prabhupada’s potency.
