I thought that a cultural presentation...</p>
<p>Puṣṭa Kṛṣṇa: We have to somehow or another get the local people to join there.</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Well that's the way, see they're not going to join as Hare Kṛṣṇas because of the bad publicity. They're not going to join like that. You have to have a different method.</p>

<p>Prabhupāda: When I first saw from the window that the street was all white, "How is that? One white-washed?" (laughter) Then when I saw in the street, "Oh!"</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: You never saw snow.</p>

<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Even in the Himalayas?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: I saw in Kashmir, but that was not so white.</p>
