Preach this Bhagavad-gītā as it is. People will be benefited. You will be benefited. Don't make unnecessary interpretation, misguide others and spoil your own life. That is very unfortunate. What is the difficulty to accept Bhagavad-gītā? There is no difficulty. Unfortunately we interpret in different way and take it other way.

Indian man (3): What's the difference between grace and mercy?

Prabhupāda: Grace means he'll willingly give you mercy; and mercy means you ask for mercy. Kṛpa-siddha. Sādhana-siddha and kṛpa-siddha. You are trying to earn one lakh of rupees—that is sādhana. But if somebody is gracious, he can give you, "Take one lakh of rupees. Don't work hard." That is grace. That is kṛpa. You are ambitious for one lakh of rupees or somebody graciously gives you, "All right, take"—there are many persons—so that is grace. Otherwise, you earn by your hard labor. That is sādhana. Similarly, by association, by sādhana-bhakti, you attain perfection, and by grace also you can attain perfection. Two ways. So those who are kṛpa-siddha, they are more fortunate. Sab chiz hai. Aur humara, sab bharatiya hai, ye bharatiya culture choriye nahi, isme kuch labh nahi. Lokshani hai, ye sab achi tarah se samaj lijiye aur . . . Everything is there and it is from India itself. The culture is also Indian. Don't give it up. There is only loss if you do so. Consider it carefully and . . . Preach this Bhagavad-gītā as it is. People will be benefited. You will be benefited. Don't make unnecessary interpretation, misguide others and spoil your own life. That is very unfortunate. What is the difficulty to accept Bhagavad-gītā? There is no difficulty. Unfortunately we interpret in different way and take it other way. So our little attempt is to spread Bhagavad-gītā as it is, and whatever it may be, it is being accepted in the Western countries. Not by all, but the people in general. Now the . . . feeling the weight, they have now began opposing.

Mr. Bajaj: Have seen the new light.

Prabhupāda: Yes. They're opposing me very vigorously in America.
