"I don't read the book. I read the author. I first see the author to see if he is authentic or not. I am a proof reader. I always see what is right and what is wrong. My father trained me in proof reading, but I am not only a proof reader of the press. I am a proof reader of the world. I proof read men; I see their faults and try to correct them. I am a proof reader of religion also. I have appeared in the karkata lagna (astrologically). So whenever I see anything undevotional I will act like a karkata (a crab). If I see any so called devotion which is not actually in the true unalloyed spirit, I shall pierce it!"

Fri, April 8, 2005 - 2:19 PMI *wish* there was some similarity between me and Srila Bhaktisiddhanta! But other than the fact that I sometimes look a bit like a crustacean, and have a tendency to be crabby, I'm afraid there's little resemblance. :o
