Prabhupada taught Bhakti Charu Swami cleanliness

This morning (1st June 2013) in the kitchen of Bhakti Tirtha Swami's house, Bhakti Charu Swami mildly reprimanded me because the place was unkempt. He told me, "Srila Prabhupada taught me the standard personally. He told me that whenever you use a pot in the kitchen, immediately wash it, dry it and put it away." "In this way," he continued, "the kitchen remains clean and clutter-free." He added, "Remember that this is Bhakti Tirtha Swami's house. For his disciples, this is a place of pilgrimage. Make sure everything is spic and span. Devotees here should say, after our visit, "Bhakti Charu Swami and his devotees were here, and they left everything so clean."
