If you will please Krsna, He will give you this wealth. Today you must not criticize any Vaisnava even if his behavior is rude or bad -- Krsna will punish him Himself. Do not make fun of Vaisnavas.

We are chanting the maha-mantra and we have no faith in it; but this and all other mantras are truly kalpa-vrksa, desire trees. Every sloka of Srimad-Bhagavatam is like the kama-dhenus (the cows of Goloka Vrndavana, who can fulfill all of one's desires). Not only one kama-dhenu – each sloka can be compared to millions of kama-dhenus...
