He was such a mercy giver!

Yogesvara Dasa continues:

Srila Prabhupada was such a mercy-giver! He never asked us to fill any questionnaires. He never asked your history, what’s your background. What have you done good? What have you done bad? There was never any such auditioning for becoming his disciple.

Srila Prabhupada said, "Whatever you have done before that’s behind you. Now, from this point on, follow the rules and regulations."

That should be our disposition towards people in Krishna Consciousness. There should be such an effort to bent over…backwards... to anyone who’s trying to serve Krishna.
What to speak of people who may, for one reason or another, fallen away from the movement.  As Vaisnavas we are meant to see what their service has been, and find a way to encourage them; to bring them back by demonstrating to them the same kind of love, affection and concern that Srila Prabhupada showed us.
