<p>Prabhupāda: But Kṛṣṇa's devotee.... When he surrenders, he is devotee. When he does not, he is not devotee; he is trying to become devotee.</p>
<p>Pañca-draviḍa: "But why do they ask us for money for these books? Why don't they give them away, if they're so surrendered to Kṛṣṇa?"</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Why shall I give you? Why shall I give you?</p>
<p>Gurukṛpā: "Kṛṣṇa says He is the proprietor of everything. Why He has to ask me?"</p>
<p>Pañca-draviḍa: "Yes, why is He asking us for money?"</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: And He is proprietor of your money. Give Him. (laughter) I think our Girirāja played this trick.</p>
