<span class="link">[[Vanisource:Room Conversation -- July 6, 1976, Washington, D.C.|Room Conversation -- July 6, 1976, Washington, D.C.]]: </span><div class="text"><p style="display: inline;">Svarūpa Dāmodara: All the, even the government participates so they wrote me a letter saying that they can give us nice land, plot, and...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Oh yes. Now that Govindajī's temple?</p>
<p>Svarūpa Dāmodara: Govindajī's temple is taken over by the government, so I talked to, I wrote a letter...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Government, they cannot manage.</p>
<p>Svarūpa Dāmodara: They are not managing properly.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: They cannot. As soon as anything goes to state especially in India, goes to the government track(?), it is spoiled. Government means all thieves and rogues. How they'll manage? They'll simply swallow whatever they get. Government means... They cannot manage, they are not devotees. It should be in the hands of the devotees. So (indistinct), the paid man, they want some money, that's all. How they can manage temple? It is impossible.</p>
<p>Svarūpa Dāmodara: It becomes a political problem.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: That's all. Eh?</p>
<p>Svarūpa Dāmodara: It becomes involved in politics. So that... Nothing to do with the worship.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: The government should give to the hands of the devotee, we are recognized devotees, ISKCON. If they want, really management. We are managing, so many centers, on account of devotees. It is not possible to manage all these things by paid men. It is not possible.</p>
<p>Devotee (2): No.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: They'll never... They'll not... This movement can be pushed on vigorously so long we are devotees, otherwise it will be finished. It cannot be conducted by any outsiders. No. Only the devotees. That is the secret.</p>
<p>Devotee (2): You cannot pay a devotee.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Eh?</p>
<p>Devotee (2): You cannot buy a devotee.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: That is not possible.</p>
<p>Devotee (2): You can buy someone to sweep the floor, but you cannot buy a preacher.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No, that is not possible. So so long we remain devotees, our movement will go, without any check.</p>
<p>Devotee (2): Devotees should take over the world.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yeah, that is... That is good for the world.</p>
<p>Devotee (2): Yes.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: If devotees take up the whole world for management, then everyone will be happy. It is no doubt it. Kṛṣṇa wants that. He wanted the Pāṇḍavas should be in charge of the government. Therefore He took part in the fighting. "Yes, you should be the... All the Kauravas should be killed, and Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira installed." That is the dharma-saṁsthāpanārthāya. Paritrāṇāya sādhūnāṁ vināśāya ca duṣkṛtām ([[Vanisource:BG 4.8 (1972)|BG 4.8]]). He wants everything goes very smoothly and people become God conscious. So their life be successful. That is Kṛṣṇa's plan. That, "These rascal misleading and therefore... the (indistinct) the human life has been spoiled." Therefore I was talking about the "What is the meaning of the independence, (indistinct)?" ? The life is spoiled. And they will spoil their life and become next life a dog, and this big, big building, with stair, that's all. What the big buildings will do benefit to these people who is going to be a dog next life? Taking as a theory, that those who have constructed this big, big building and next life they're going to be a dog.</p>
<p>Svarūpa Dāmodara: But they don't know that next life they're going to be a dog.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: That is the difficulty. They do not know it. Therefore māyā. It is same thing (indistinct). The life is meant for spiritual realization. They are not (indistinct) chance. They're going to become dog, and they think that, "Now we have got this big building, that is success."</p>
<p>Svarūpa Dāmodara: That awakening of their understanding is necessary.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes.</p>
<p>Svarūpa Dāmodara: Otherwise, if they know that it's going to be like that then they won't do that.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Therefore they dismiss, "No, we don't believe in the next life." And they're so degraded even for argument's sake, "What is the wrong if I become dog?" They say, university students.</p>
<p>Devotee (2): They say that, yes.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: "What is the wrong if I become a dog?" The same thing. Hell. Everyone is going to hell. So what is wrong? The same philosophy, if father is going, mother is going, brother is going, I am going, then where is hell?" That's all. We shall go there all together.</p>
<p>Devotee (2): Will this movement take over the world, Prabhupāda?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: At least you keep one idea. There is possibility.</p>
<p>Devotee (2): I think it will be very big.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: That is possible. If we become serious and sincere, then it will go on, undoubtedly.</p>
