July 6, 2021 - A Recent Letter to a Sincere Devotee (from the Blog)

Please. Don't be so hard on yourself, and don't let yourself dwell so much upon guilt. You have that faith. I have faith that you have that faith. Don't worry about being impure. Don't worry about the thoughts which come up in your mind about yourself and about others. It will pass. Just keep faith in all that is pure. You have not at all failed. You're simply becoming purified. That is not failure. The process is working.

Srila Prabhupada
Lecture on Bhagavad-gita 13.1-3, Durban, October 13, 1975

There are some men who claim to become isvara, to become God. So we have no objection, that if somebody says, "I am god" or "I am controller," we have no objection. But if somebody says that "I am supreme God," or "supreme controller," then we have got objection. Supreme means he has no controller. And ordinary controller, just like we are... You are controller. You are controlling some sphere of life. I am also controlling some. But I also being controlled. But isvarah paramah krsnah means He is the supreme controller. He has no controller over Him. He controls everyone, but He is not controlled by anyone.
