Brahmananda as he tells the story. Brahmananda says, "There was this stump. It was a stump. It looked like a dead wooden stump-no life in it - just there on the land".
And Prabhupada said, “Oh, Oh this is a tamÄla tree! Oh that tree cannot be cut!”
So, then they had to design the whole temple around that tree- and that tree started to flourish, and became quite big. So its quite amazing how Prabbhupada showed it like that.
“ No the tree cannot be cut”. So the living beings - all living beings are protected.
