Stealing from Krishna

Dayananda Dasa remembers a morning walk in Dallas.

Srila Prabhupada was told that H L Hunt lived across the river to where they were walking; he was one the richest man in the USA at the time.

Srila Prabhupada questioned his disciples, "So, if you see him what will you tell him?"

Somebody replied, "We'll tell him that we have a school here and we're producing first class citizens and..."

(Since Srila Prabhupada had been talking a lot about the Dallas Gurukula, everyone thought that the reply was in context.)

But Srila Prabhupada interrupted him, "No! You will tell him he's a thief! " (...because he is stealing from Krishna)
