<span class="link">[[Vanisource:Evening Darsana -- July 6, 1976, Washington, D.C.|Evening Darsana -- July 6, 1976, Washington, D.C.]]: </span><div class="text"><p style="display: inline;">Hari-śauri: Śrīla Prabhupāda, it's 8:30. Want to finish up?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: What is your question?</p>
<p>Vipina: I was talking to Dr. Diksha and I was explaining to him that if he was unable to chant or to become a full-time devotee, that your program for a person in that condition of life, was something like Life Membership Program, whereby he could become a member of the Society, maintain his occupational duty, but become a member and take books and read and try to understand gradually that way. Is that satisfactory, if they can do that much, that would be, some way they would be serving Kṛṣṇa to your satisfaction? (Prabhupāda laughs)</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes, we are taking so much labor in writing books. If somebody reads, certainly that is satisfaction. (laughter)</p>
<p>Rūpānuga: It is to their benefit, Śrīla Prabhupāda, if they read.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes, I am writing for reading by others.</p>
<p>Rūpānuga: Thank you, Śrīla Prabhupāda. What time is the initiation? (break)</p>
<p>Puṣṭa Kṛṣṇa: ...our temple early in the morning at about seven o'clock Śrīla Prabhupāda will deliver a lecture and also there will be a sacrifice, very ancient sacrifice performed, which is formal initiation, of becoming a disciple of a spiritual master, and you are welcome to come by. It is a very colorful and beautiful ceremony. This will take place tomorrow morning at 7 a.m. here in the temple. Hare Kṛṣṇa.</p>
<p>Rūpānuga: Thank you. (end)</p>
