Bali-mardana and I. Maybe when I come back here to live, maybe after Christmas, he and I, we'll see if we can work out... He knows some people that are in the movie business.</p>
<p>Siddha-svarūpa: Which actors?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Actors, we shall play. They haven't got to pay for us.</p>
<p>Ambarīṣa: He was thinking also maybe to make it an epic picture of Bhagavad-gītā.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes.</p>
<p>Siddha-svarūpa: That would be most popular, I believe.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes. Kṛṣṇa-līlā also. That will be also popular. From Bhāgavatam we can have so many.</p>
<p>Siddha-svarūpa: Endless.</p>
<p>Ambarīṣa: They could be run on T.V. too.</p>
<p>Siddha-svarūpa: Have a series. (break) ...not to continue or make any impression. And that will necessitate very good acting, not slapstick comedy. (break)</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: ...not professional. (break) ...men can be trained up—that is possible—to play. We require professional director. Money may be spent by the movie company. And we give our men an idea. (break)</p>
<p>Siddha-svarūpa: ...always looking for new movies, new ideas, the companies.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes.</p>
<p>Ambarīṣa: 'Cause they have made many great religious pictures, big epics about Jesus and stuff like that. So maybe they would be open to the idea of doing the Bhagavad-gītā. That would be nice. (break)</p>
<p>Siddha-svarūpa: I mentioned to you something about making a movie of Bhagavad-gītā. You said it would be very difficult to find fifty thousand elephants. (laughs) There will be some... (break) ...Kṛṣṇa-līlā will be easier. He can be fighting one demon or dancing with the gopīs. Bhagavad-gītā is... (break)</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: ...do not understand the existence of soul, then why do they say, "My head, my hand"? Why not say, "I head." What is their answer? Why do you say, "My head"?</p>
<p>Siddha-svarūpa: They have no answer. (break) ...very much to know about this.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: That is the folly.</p>
<p>Siddha-svarūpa: Their desire is to enjoy the world and have religion to help them.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: It is not the question of religion. Unless one understands, then he does not understand the transmigration of the soul. (end)</p>
