<span class="link">[[Vanisource:Morning Walk -- January 16, 1976, Mayapur|Morning Walk -- January 16, 1976, Mayapur]]: </span><div class="text"><p style="display: inline;">Bhavānanda: (break) This is for.... We use for soaking paddy.</p>
<p>Jayapatāka: During the festival days for putting cooked food in big quantities.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Where?</p>
<p>Jayapatāka: In these.</p>
<p>Bhavānanda: A man who has joined us, he has given us the tempo.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: It is work...?</p>
<p>Jayapatāka: It needs to be repaired.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Oh, then don't take it. Don't take it. Kānā goru brāhmaṇa ke dāna.(?) You do not understand Bengali? "Blind cow given in charity to a brāhmaṇa." When it is useless—"Charity. All right."</p>
<p>Jayapatāka: If the man lives here, what to do? He's a devotee.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: You may go with your, this car, or throw it in the street. Don't take all these charities.</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: There's that verse about the puffed rice when it blows away.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes, "Govindāya namaḥ." Purify, govindāya namaḥ. Don't take it. Simply immediately throw it in the street. It is obnoxious. Immediately break the whole thing, and, part by part, sell it. But that is not possible. Ask him to first of all get it outside and then leave here. Don't allow this nonsense. (break) ...stand this space. Why? Why should we allow it? Useless.</p>
<p>Jayapatāka: We were thinking about whether we should repair it or not.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No. You should not take anything which requires repairing. Don't accept. (break) ...in the meantime. (break) (Bengali) It has not worked for three hundred years. (Bengali) You do not engage them for cleansing?</p>
<p>Bhavānanda: These boys are in charge.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: What is that in charge? Why it is so dirty? Why it is so dirty?</p>
<p>Devotee (3): We clean every day.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Every day?</p>
<p>Devotee (3): Yes.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: So why it is not clean today?</p>
<p>Devotee (3): We clean it in the evenings before we leave. The people living upstairs, they pass through here. This is the entrance into their living quarters, Prabhupāda.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: You clean in the evening and in the morning it is so dirty?</p>
<p>Devotee (3): In the afternoon or in the evening, early.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: You clean in the evening and in the morning it is so dirty?</p>
<p>Devotee (3): Well, they're passing through here to their living quarters.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: And therefore it should be dirty. Then what for cleaning? Just see. What is the cleaning? You clean in the evening; in the morning it is dirty. Is that very good reason? Clean. Engage them. (break) ...you are chanting, śrī-vigrahārādhana-nitya-nana-śrṅgara-tan-man..., tan-mandira-mārjanādau **. This is all temple. This is not ordinary hotel, free hotel. If they cannot take care as temple, they must go away. (break) ...eating, sleeping. That's all, not working. See that they do not make it a free hotel for eating and sleeping. Don't allow this. It should be clean. Why in the evening? Every morning it should be clean and washed and mopped. (Bengali)</p>
<p>Jayapatāka: Generally they chant the japa till about 7:15.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: And therefore everything should be.... They must give up japa; first of all clean. That is japa, first. In the name of japa and dozing and everything is unclean. This nonsense should not be allowed. Ask them, "Stop japping. First of all clean. Then japa, make japa." This is a plea, "japa."</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Yes.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: This is a plea, excuse.</p>
<p>Jayapatāka: Generally at 7:15 they start cleaning.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No, no. I see. Why it is not clean? It must have been clean. (break) (Bengali) Yes, but I don't see they are working at the gate. (break) ...theoretical.</p>
<p>Jayapatāka: They make every day the rice for the day.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: So where they are doing? Today is no rice required?</p>
<p>Jayapatāka: They start when the schedule starts at 7:30.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: What is the time now?</p>
<p>Jayapatāka: They're all waiting for you to...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Very punctual, 7:30. Not waiting.</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: They're chanting japa.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Who is japping? Please be careful that this idle class in the name of japa...</p>
