Guest (2): ...interesting. I see Elder Forester and myself, we feel that we're called to God through a living prophet ourselves. And our feeling is in our own hearts we feel that we have a living feeling in what we call a testimony of Christ. And we feel that he is our savior and that he did atone for the sins of the world.

And we were wondering what your feelings were about this.

Prabhupāda: Our feeling is direct, carrying the orders of God. The direct orders are there, and we have to carry. Ānukūlyena kṛṣṇānuśīlanam [Cc Madhya 19.167], favorably to carry out the order of Kṛṣṇa. Kṛṣṇa means God.

Prabhupāda: So favorably. What God says, "You do it," we have to do that.

Guest (2): Great. Okay, supposing when you die, how will there... Will there be another man of your sort who people would look to, like these here?

Prabhupāda: Many. Anyone who will carry out the order, he'll be prophet.

Guest (2): Oh, I see. So you just carry the order out fully.
