Letter to: Himavati
Yes, to call one another prabhu is all right, but not to become prabhu. To accept others as prabhu, and remain as servant is the idea. But because somebody is calling you prabhu, one should not become a prabhu, and treat others as servants In other words, everyone should feel himself as servant, and not to think himself prabhu because he is being called prabhu.
Morning Walk
Therefore we say prabhu. Prabhu means "You are my master. Please order me. What can I do for you?" Gurudāsa Prabhu, please come here and brush my shoes." [laughter] What kind of prabhu? He should say, "Gurudāsa Prabhu, can I brush your shoes?" That is real Vaiṣṇava, not that "Gurudāsa Prabhu, come here and brush my shoes."

[pause] Therefore we teach our students to address "prabhu." "I am your servant, you are my master, prabhu." That is the meaning of prabhu. Prabhu means master.

Pahū means prabhu. The shortcut is pahū. Prabhu, lord, or master. So these prabhu, two, two prabhus, Caitanya Mahāprabhu and Nityānanda Prabhu. And others, they are addressed as prabhu. So these two prabhus, Nityānanda Prabhu and Caitanya Mahāprabhu, are very merciful, parama koruṇa.

managers is not difficult, except that all the European and American boys didn't understand the concept of prabhu We each call each other prabhu, but we are thinking that "I am prabhu, and all others are servants," not that the one I am calling prabhu or the one who is calling me prabhu are mutual prabhus.
