The Vaishnava is the crest jewel of the brahmanas.
Such a Vaishnava may appear in any caste or even be an outcaste.

Devotee comment:
But we ARE partial - partial to Srila Prabhupada and Sri Caitanya! And we DO want to benefit society - by giving them Krsna Consciousness as best we can. But we don't want to necessarily 'Please' society, by bending to their ideas. Like Srila Prabhupada, when other swamis tried to teach him what to wear or how to eat with utensils - he told them, I did not come to learn from them. I came to TEACH them! Haribol! \0/

Meena Devi Dasi:
Yes. When asked how to engage the crowd more in public kirtan, Srila Prabhupada replied, Our business is not "to please the crowd. Our business is to please Krishna, then crowd will be automatically pleased. It is ongoing. Not something new. The challenge of the Vaishnavas. Same problem Srila Vyasadeva himself was faced with. He compiled so many Vedic Scriptures to help those struggling under the modes of material nature. But he himself was morose. Narada muni the perfect Vaishnava spiritual master empowered him to write Srimad Bhagavatam. Kicking out all materially "motivated religion" for the perfection of life.
