Bhagavad-gita As It Is Lectures

And hearing from whom? From a loafer? No. From Kṛṣṇa or Kṛṣṇa's representative.

Lecture on BG 7.1 -- Los Angeles, March 12, 1970:

Devotee: "The Lord therefore says to Arjuna, tac chṛṇu, or 'Hear from Me.' "

Prabhupāda: Yes. "Hear from Me." And hearing from whom? From a loafer? No. From Kṛṣṇa or Kṛṣṇa's representative. That will effect. Hearing, there must be hearing process also from the authorized person. Just like if you take electricity. You should take electricity where the electric point is there. Electric is everywhere; that's nice. Everyone accepts there is electricity. But you have to take electricity from the plug where the electricity current is going on. Then you get electricity.
