<p>Prabhupāda: Oh, yes.</p>
<p>Indian man: How many rooms?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Huh?</p>
<p>Indian man: How many rooms?</p>
<p>Gurudāsa: Thirty.</p>
<p>Indian man: Thirty rooms.</p>
<p>Gurudāsa: Small, behind the altar.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: But the temple is very nice. Well kept.</p>
<p>Indian man: Well kept.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: It is colored nicely.</p>
<p>Devotee (3): If he gives to you, what will we make there?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Huh?</p>
<p>Devotee (3): If the king gives to you, what will we make there?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: We shall make a guest house for visitors. You are visitor now.</p>
<p>Devotee (3): Then you will have two temples in Vṛndāvana?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes. We can take all the temples. (break) ...completely stop. (break) (indistinct), he was a nonsense. This is the tendency in India also.</p>
<p>Indian man: Fortunately, it's not so with the great majority of people.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Not people. I am speaking of the leaders.</p>
<p>Indian man: Leaders. The new generation that is now coming up, they are mostly atheists.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: These teachers came with that (indistinct), although they have been (indistinct). (break)</p>
<p>Indian man: Top-ranking scientists have begun to realize that they simply don't know anything.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Hm?</p>
<p>Indian man: Modern science, these top-ranking scientists, not the middle ones, the topmost scientists, they all say that "We really do not know anything."</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes, that is real (indistinct).</p>
<p>Pañca-draviḍa: I was being trained up in this. For one-and-a-half years I was going to MIT in Boston and planning to go into this chemical, chemistry or chemical engineering or metallurgy, something like that. But I could see that actually the people around me, my student body, all the people in the school, they were so maladjusted and miserable that I decided "If this is the result of their scientific training that they are so miserable, I'm going to leave here immediately," and I did so. I got out as quickly as I could. (break) ...see that their training is just simply bringing them misery in life and, therefore, there is no purpose in acquiring such knowledge. And Prabhupāda describes it as being like the jewel on the hood of a snake, more dangerous.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Once I was invited to speak in that institution, MIT. So I questioned, "Where is your department of technology to understand the difference between dead body and living body?" So I spoke on this. So the students appreciated. After my lecture, they gathered around me. How do you explain? What is that technology, why the man is dead? Science is simply based on this bodily concept. Yasyātma-buddhiḥ kuṇape tri-dhātuke ([[Vanisource:SB 10.84.13|SB 10.84.13]]).</p>
<p>Indian man: But about body also they don't know anything.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: That also they have no perfect knowledge.</p>
<p>Indian man: About matter they say... (indistinct) has written a book in which... (end)</p>
