Prabhupāda: So for myself, I may live or not live. It doesn't matter.
Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Actually, Śrīla Prabhupāda, it may not matter to yourself, but it matters too much for us and for the world. We don't want... We can't... You can't leave us now.
Prabhupāda: I don't want, but if there is force...
Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: But you said that Kṛṣṇa... And Kṛṣṇa will let you choose now, that you can live or go. Kṛṣṇa's given you that choice.
Prabhupāda: I am living still.
Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: There's so much to be done, Śrīla Prabhupāda. Your activities are not completed yet. You have to install the Deities in Bombay, you have to live in your palace in New Vrindaban, you have to show varṇāśrama, you have to complete the Bhāgavatam, you have to live in a new house in Māyāpura, and we have to at least make a good start to begin the big temple in Māyāpura. Everything is still incomplete, what to speak of the fact that we are all very much neophyte still. We need you more than anything else. This movement has to last ten thousand years. We're not ready yet. We're still very much conditioned and contaminated. If you stay with us for another ten years at least, then there's chance that we can become purified more. And it's within your... It's within you to be able to do that. Kṛṣṇa will allow you to do that.
Prabhupāda: People are coming like before?
Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: I'll have to start looking again, Śrīla Prabhupāda. My eyes have not been able to see everything very clearly in the last few days.
Prabhupāda: Hm?
Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Due to your being in this condition, I am not seeing very... I've not been very alert to looking at those things because I was worried about you. Today I'll try to see.
Prabhupāda: No. In Māyāpura.
Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Oh. In Māyāpura people are coming?
Bhavānanda: Yes, Śrīla Prabhupāda. Now the flood waters have recessed and the crowds are coming again. And winter season is coming up. Everything is back to normal. Busloads. Especially from Balrampura.
Subhaga: Almost every week one or two busload of people coming, and they want us we should do program there. Two days ago one professor came and talking to Bhakti-caru Mahārāja and Bhavānanda Swami regarding that. And also from Calcutta and other places.
Bhavānanda: Busloads of people, all respectable. Everyone at Māyāpura is expecting you to come for the winter season. The sweet sunshine in Māyāpura in the winter is the nicest, and the prasādam is the nicest. Everything is...
Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Actually, Śrīla Prabhupāda, if it gets very cold here it might be a good idea to go there.
Prabhupāda: Yes.
