And this was what Prabhupāda claimed to be the fulcrum of power in his campaign to take Kṛṣṇa consciousness all over the world. He said that by taking the intention of my spiritual master and following his instruction, which he clarified as Mahārāja mentioned. Prabhupāda clarified it because he had received that instruction at Rādhā-kuṇḍa, and then later on, he had written to his spiritual master, just a fortnight before his guru had left the world, and asked, 'How may I serve you?' He had already told him how he might serve Him. And then his guru wrote back and told him that he should preach in the West, and he should engage those he preached to in also carrying forth the message of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu. He said it would be good for them, and it would be good for the people that received that message through them. And Prabhupāda told us repeatedly that one must only take up the order of the Spiritual Master of the Guru Paramparā and represent it in a way that would be appreciable by those who would receive it in their particular culture without changing the meaning. So Prabhupāda knew that by following the order of his Spiritual Master, which was very clear, he would be successful. One may follow that, remembering Prabhupāda's claim that 'I am not endowed with any special power except this.' Therefore, he said, everyone who follows what I have passed on to you, and those who pass it on to others in the same mood and mission, will also be successful because it's backed by the Supreme Personality of Godhead. A favorite quote of mine—those who've listened to me speak before probably know this in their sleep because I've quoted it so many times—is from the second canto of the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam. In the purport, Prabhupāda writes that the order of the Supreme Personality of Godhead is a manifestation of His internal potency, and it is by that potency that one comes to see the Lord face to face.
