Text 25] Prahlada Instructs His Demoniac Schoolmates 33

friend of everyone. A preacher should personally understand these
truths and preach them to everyone. Then there will be peace and tran-
quility all over the world.

The word sauhrdam (“friendliness”) is very significant in this verse.
People are generally ignorant of Krsna consciousness, and therefore to
become their best well-wisher one should teach them about Krsna con-
sciousness without discrimination. Since the Supreme Lord, Visnu, is
situated in the core of everyone’s heart, every body is a temple of Visnu.
One should not misuse this understanding as an excuse for such words as
daridra-narayana. If Narayana lives in the house of a daridra, a poor
man, this does not mean that Narayana becomes poor. He lives every-
where—in the houses of the poor and those of the rich—but in all
circumstances He remains Narayana; to think that He becomes either
poor or rich is a material calculation. He is always sad-aisvarya-purna,
full in six opulences, in all circumstances.
