700103 Lecture - Srila Prabhupada Speaks a Nectar Drop in Los Angeles

Nectar Drops from Srila Prabhupada
"We are eating. Everyone is eating; we are also eating. The difference is somebody is eating for sense gratification and somebody is eating for satisfaction of Kṛṣṇa. That is the difference. So if you simply acknowledge that 'My dear Lord...' Just like a son, if he acknowledges the benefits derived from the father, how much the father is satisfied, 'Oh, here is a very good son'. The father is supplying everything, but if the son says, 'My dear father, you are so kind to me that you are supplying such nice things. I thank you', the father becomes very much pleased. Father does not want that thanks, but it is natural. Father does not care for such thanks. His duty he is supplying. But if the son feels thankful for the father's benefit, the father is especially satisfied. Similarly, God is the father. He is supplying us."
