<div class="heading">The leader, perfect leader, is God. Nityo nityānāṁ cetanaś cetanānāṁ (Kaṭha Upaniṣad 2.2.13). That nitya and cetana, all living entities, we are eternal, and we are conscious. And He is the supreme conscious. Therefore God means Supreme Being. You take His leadership. Then He'll properly guide you. That is our philosophy.

<span class="link">[[Vanisource:Morning Walk -- March 16, 1976, Mayapura|Morning Walk -- March 16, 1976, Mayapura]]: </span><div class="text"><p style="display: inline;">Puṣṭa Kṛṣṇa: Everyone requires leader, yes, Śrīla Prabhupāda?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: That is a fact.</p>
<p>Puṣṭa Kṛṣṇa: So they are changing leaders one after another because they think that the present leader will satisfy their present desires more.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: The leader, perfect leader, is God. Nityo nityānāṁ cetanaś cetanānāṁ (Kaṭha Upaniṣad 2.2.13). That nitya and cetana, all living entities, we are eternal, and we are conscious. And He is the supreme conscious. Therefore God means Supreme Being. You take His leadership. Then He'll properly guide you. That is our philosophy.</p>
<p>Madhudviṣa: Śrīla Prabhupāda, actually, I think it was either Marx or...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: But the leader says, sarva-dharmān parityajya mām ekaṁ śaraṇaṁ vraja, ahaṁ tvāṁ sarva-pāpebhyo ([[Vanisource:BG 18.66|BG 18.66]]): "I shall give you protection from all pitfalls." This is. We also accept leader, but the most perfect leader, who can actually give me protection from all dangers. So Śrīdhara, when you go, you take some letters from me. So what happened about Ganguli? (break) ...this nature. Just like a child is born, immediately he requires protection by mother.</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: What... Śrīla Prabhupāda, what are the qualifications of a perfect leader?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No mistake, no illusion, no cheating, no imperfection. Anyone who commits mistake, he's illusioned, he's a cheater and imperfect—he cannot lead. So bring any leader of these rascal groups and test with these four principles; he is misleader.</p>
<p>Trivikrama: They're all servants of their senses.</p>
<p>Madhudviṣa: They will also say that within our movement the so-called leaders also have imperfections.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Eh?</p>
<p>Madhudviṣa: They will say, within our movement, that the leaders also have imperfection.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No imperfection.</p>
