Your love for me will be shown
On May 23, 1977, you also made a well-known statement about the test of love.
As recounted by Satsvarüpa däsa Goswami:
“Your love for me,” said Çréla Prabhupäda, “will be shown by how much you
cooperate to keep this institution together after I am gone.” [Çréla
Prabhupäda-Lélämåta: Uniting Two Worlds, p. 313]
Or, as recorded by Tamäl Krishna Goswami:
Çréla Prabhupäda emphasized, “Your love for me will be tested how after my
departure you maintain this institution. We have glamour and people are feeling
our weight. This should be maintained. Not like Gauòéya Math. After Guru
Mahäräja’s departure so many äcäryas came up.” [TKG’s Diary, p. 45]
