Lectures from a Disciple, Vol. 2, The Lord Protects Those Who Glorify His Name
Krishna is capable of bestowing unlimited pleasure, and we can taste some of that pleasure when we come under the protection of His internal potency. Thus devotees sincerely pray from the heart for the Lord's protection and shelter, and especially protection and shelter under His internal potency.
Srila Prabhupada
Lecture on Bhagavad-gita 4.11, Bombay, March 31, 1974
Because by the propagation of Lord Buddha, whole India became Buddhist. And Sankaracarya wanted to establish Vedas again. So they were temporary necessities, for certain reason. Because people were addicted so much in violence, in killing the animals, therefore Buddha philosophy was needed. Again, this Buddha philosophy was driven out. The Sankara, impersonal, philosophy was established. But again, the acaryas, Ramanujacarya, Madhvacarya and other Vaisnava acaryas, at last, Caitanya Mahaprabhu, they established that brahma satyam means brahmeti paramatmeti bhagavan iti sabdyate [SB 1.2.11: Learned transcendentalists who know the Absolute Truth call this nondual substance Brahman, Paramatma or Bhagavan.] Both, three, Absolute Truth. So these are the philosophical development. So Krsna is summarizing this philosophical development here in this one line, that mama vartmanuvartante manusyah partha sarvasah. Either you follow Buddha philosophy or Sankara philosophy or Vaisnava philosophy, the ultimate goal is Krsna.
