turning crows into peacocks

 
Imported quote 20850
You say that before meeting me you could not read or write, so this is all Krishna's grace. If He likes, he can make a crow into a peacock. That is His grace. Krishna consciousness is so valuable that it plays wonderful, and there are many instances within our society. Similarly I was a crow, and now they consider me a peacock. But, I was trying to be a peacock whenever there was the opportunity. I took the endeavor to publish the "Back to Godhead,'' but I wasted so much time. Ultimately Krishna saved me.
I hope this meets you in good health.
Your ever well wisher,
A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami
