By examining what he did not wish to do, we see a spiritual master who deliberately avoided mundane arguments, petty politics, and unnecessary managerial distractions.

- As you have written in a friendly spirit, I do not wish to discuss this point further. If you will kindly take a little trouble to read this chapter "Lord Caitanya meets Vallabha Bhatta" you will understand the whole situation
- At the present moment I do not think the society can invest any money in New Vrindaban, for the reason that we are starting this press, and until this press is all established I do not wish to divert my attention
I
- I am so sorry to learn that there is a sort of conspiracy by some of our God-brothers as not to give me a place at Mayapur. I do not wish to argue on this point
- I am trying to live at least up to the time I finish my translation of Bhagavatam. I do not wish to die before I finish
- I do not wish that Gurukula should be closed down in Dallas. So you kindly arrange to send your child back to Gurukula. One thing is at least for the time being, you must arrange to pay the tuition for your child
- I do not wish that the Gurukula should be closed. Please work combinedly and endeavour with great determination to keep it going on nicely
- I do not wish to discuss about activities of my Godbrothers but it is a fact they have no life for preaching work. All are satisfied with a place for residence in the name of a temple
- I do not wish to discuss this point very much, but according to our Manu-samhita, it is said that women should not be free. Na svatantryam arhati - Svatantryam is not allowed to the woman class
- I do not wish to discuss this point. But Krsna is for everyone. It is not that Krsna is for Indians or for the Hindus or for . . . no. Krsna is for everyone
- I do not wish to give any decision without the GBC's verdict. My only grievance is that I appointed GBC to give me relief from the management but, on the contrary, complaints and counter-complaints are coming to me
- I do not wish to interfere. You manage now. I want to see that you are managing without my interference
- I do not wish to mention by name - one artificial God, he was teaching his disciple, and the disciple was feeling electrical shocks. So unfortunately, I cannot give you electrical shocks
- I do not wish to prolong the body of this note further, but if you think that a meeting with you will be beneficial for the human society at large, I shall be very much pleased if You Holiness will grant me an interview
- I do not wish to put your wife into trouble for the money which she faithfully loaned to the Society. So kindly let me know that you are going to repay her loan. Otherwise I shall send her the money
- I do not wish to see that somehow or other we have built up a nice institution, on account of lack of management it may be hampered. That is my only anxiety
- I have actual experience in this connection (Krsna takes away all sources of income and place one into great difficulty). I do not wish to narrate this whole story, but it is a fact that I received Krsna's special favor in this way
- If your parents don't receive you as their beloved son, I don't wish to keep you in that blazing fire. I thank you very much for the strength of your mind and Krishna will certainly help you
- In this condition I do not wish to live
N
- No, I don't wish to agitate your mind. I want that if there is any difference, that should be adjusted, and we must preach combinedly. That is my point
- Now I am concentrating on translating of Srimad-Bhagavatam and wish to not be any more distracted. But if there is opportunity, I shall be very glad to visit your center in the future
T
- The ordinary man who is neither Krsna conscious nor a devotee of Krsna, he cannot explain Bhagavad-gita. Whatever they are explaining, they are simply spoiling their time and others' also, big, big scholars - I do not wish to discuss - simply misled
- Therefore I do not wish to leave Vrndavana. If by Krsna's desire I survive, then we shall see later on
- They deviated from the disciplic succession from Srila Prabhupada. So, I don't wish to discuss on this point, because you know better than me; but I think you are also old enough, and I am also old enough
