Vaikuntha Men | The Hare Krishna Movement

Jananivasa And Pankajanghri Prabhus!

Tamala Krsna: These two pujaris, the two brothers…

Prabhupada: They’re ideal.

Tamala Krsna: …they look like they’re out of the Caitanya-caritamrta. They appear as two persons right out of that book.

Prabhupada: Yes. Very good boys.

Tamala Krsna: Vaikuntha men.

Prabhupada: Oh, yes. They do not know except the Deity. Very good boys.

Tamala Krsna: Perfect team of brothers.

Prabhupada: Oh, yes. Therefore Krsna has brought them here in Mayapur. Previously they were advanced. All of you. You are simply born because the mission was to be started. Just like in Yadu-vamsa Krsna ordered all the devotee demigods to “Go and take birth there to help Me.” Similarly, you are also… You were born in Europe, America, to help this. Otherwise you were devotees in your past lives.
