July 6, 2021 - A Recent Letter to a Sincere Devotee (from the Blog)
Even if we have attachments, frustrations, mental distress, lust, anger, greed, or whatever, we can still live with ourselves and accept all of our shortcomings if we just focus some time every day on thoughts which keep ourselves in the association of all that is pure.
Srila Prabhupada
Lecture on Bhagavad-gita 2.19-25, Seattle, October 14, 1968
Krsna says that "I am suhrdam sarva-bhutanam." Suhrt means He's such a friend... Just like you have got a friend, sincerely he wants how you shall be happy. Just like your mother. Mother is also friend. Or wife, devoted wife, she is also friend. So mother, wife or any such relative, or father. Or there are many person in our ordinary relationship. So they want actually that "My friend be happy." That is real friend, suhrt. And mitra, social friendship; bandhu, official friendship. But suhrt, suhrt means one who actually desires good of his friend, "sincere friend" which you describe in English.
