<span class="link">[[Vanisource:Room Conversation With Madhudvisa and others -- August 17, 1977, Vrndavana|Room Conversation With Madhudvisa and others -- August 17, 1977, Vrndavana]]: </span><div class="text"><p style="display: inline;">Prabhupāda: It doesn't matter. Live like gṛhastha, but don't leave. So where you are staying now?</p>
<p>Madhudviṣa: I just came from Hawaii.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Where is your wife?</p>
<p>Madhudviṣa: She's there. I just had a baby boy.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Huh?</p>
<p>Madhudviṣa: I just had a son.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: That's nice.</p>
<p>Madhudviṣa: I called him Abhay. I hope that's all right.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: So remain as gṛhastha and render your service. There is no harm. If one could not proceed, it doesn't matter. Failure is the pillar of success. Then try. Again you shall try. Where is Śrutakīrti? How are you?</p>
<p>Śrutakīrti: Very well, thank you.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Śrutakīrti is also gṛhastha. So jointly you can work and improve this movement. That is our ambition. Gṛhe bā banete thāke, hā gaurāṅga bole ḍāke, narottama māge tāra saṅga. "Either he remains at home or as a sannyāsī, if he is devotee of Lord Gaurāṅga, I want his association." That is Narottama Ṭhākura's... Gṛhe bā banete thāke, hā gaurāṅga bole ḍāke, narottama māge tāra saṅga. So follow the principles, and whichever position is suitable. Don't be carried away by the waves of māyā. Capture Caitanya Mahāprabhu and you'll be saved. Is that all right? Don't leave us. You are quite... At least you made advance. You are one of the important devotees. So don't lose that position now. Manage in the position you want to remain. Now Gaurasundara has also come. So I'm glad to see that you are... Your bunch of hair is long. Yes. Cut it. So give them place to stay nicely.</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Prasādam.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Prasādam. And remain here for some time. Of course, according to my horoscope, these days are my last days. But if Kṛṣṇa saves, that is a different thing. They have calculated eighty-two years and two days?</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Eighty-one years, five months, and twenty-eight days.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: That is the..., according to calculation of my horoscope. Eighty-one years will be completed, and eighty-second year will begin. It doesn't matter I leave this body. Even in death I'll live. One year before or one year after... Now as far as possible, I have trained you. Try to follow the principles. And go ahead. Don't be set back by māyā's tricks. Go ahead, forward, at any cost. Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura said... So many obstacles are coming. Māyā is strong. And still, we are going forward. That's all right.</p>
<p>Devotees: Jaya Śrīla Prabhupāda. (break)</p>
<p>Śrutakīrti: ...started on the beach walk at Pico Blvd. and went down to Venice Beach. That's where you used to walk, on Venice Beach.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Oh, it started from the beach.</p>
<p>Śrutakīrti: Yes. All along the beach for two miles.</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: A lot of people?</p>
<p>Śrutakīrti: Oh, thousands, tens of thousands of people. They served prasādam. I don't know how many. Several thousand. It was much bigger than San Francisco.</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Bigger?</p>
<p>Śrutakīrti: Yes. I was at both. It was very big. It was... I think it was the best that I have seen. The carts were very beautifully decorated with nice carnations all over.</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: People pulled it?</p>
<p>Śrutakīrti: Yes. They had no problem with the people pulling. There was nice kīrtana and a very nice feast. And Sudāmā Mahārāja was there with his players. They put on a play. That was the...</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: They liked that?</p>
<p>Śrutakīrti: Yes.</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: What preparations did they serve at the feast?</p>
<p>Śrutakīrti: For free they had an orange lassi and halavā and a sweet and a nice potato vegetable with sour cream. And they had a sweet booth, and I think they made about four or five thousand dollars selling sweets right at the beach walk. They had watermelon and samosās they were selling. It was a very big day.</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Good weather.</p>
<p>Śrutakīrti: Excellent weather. It was hot.</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Los Angeles has good weather.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Hm. Very good weather.</p>
