Deena Bandhu Prabhu relates:
I remember we were doing harinama at ‘Diamond Jims’ in Hollywood Boulevard.
Visnujana was there chanting the Hollywood melody. And suddenly his eyes just got big and he said: PRABHUPADA! And he hit the ground and we all turned around and there was Srila Prabhupada in this little Ford Pinto, a small car; Srila Prabhupada was there making pranamas.
I was thinking, “We’re like mlecchas or something. And yet Srila Prabhupada was so happy to see the devotees out on Harinama, preaching the holy name in such a degraded place. So Srila Prabhupada was so happy and folding his hands to us in pranamas.”
We all just paid our obeisances, right there on the street; we all just hit the deck.
Srila Prabhupada was just so pleased to see us out there preaching.
