Krishna consciousness is like a razor’s edge. The proverb often quoted by Srila Prabhupada states, “Suci haya muci haya yadi Krsna bhaje, muci haya suci haya yadi Krsna tvaje?everyone can become a devotee and anyone can fall.” Here’s an excerpt from a Srila Prabhupada lecture in Boston on 26 December 1969: “So Vrndavana dasa Thakura says, muci haya suci haya. A cobbler, muci, can become a suci, yadi krsna bhaje, if he’s Krsna conscious. That’s all. If he’s Krsna conscious, never mind he is a cobbler, he becomes immediately brahmana. Muci haya suci haya yadi krsna bhaje. suci haya muci haya yadi krsna tyaje. And even if he’s born in a brahmana family, if he gives up Krsna consciousness, he’s immediately cobbler. So don’t lose this opportunity. Always remember Krsna, Krsna, Krsna. (laughter) Don’t become cobbler.”
