They are serious to know about God. Therefore you cannot find in our group many thousands of people, only selected, fortunate people. So . . . but anyone can become fortunate, provided he agrees that, "There is God, and I must submit to God." That's not . . . but that mentality is very rare to be found. It has to be created. Therefore you will find not very many followers of this Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement. But one who is following he is very fortunate.

Interviewer: Are you happy with the way the mission's going in Australia, the center?

Devotee: (explaining question) "Are you happy with the way the mission is going in Australia, our activities?"

Prabhupāda: Well, after all, this is a difficult job, because to accept God or to know God, that is very difficult job. Out of many thousands of people are anxious, one may be very much anxious to know what is the highest perfection of life. And those who have attained the perfection of life, out of many thousands of them, one may know what is God actually. So to know God actually is not a very easy job.

So those who are coming to this Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement, they are very fortunate, because they are not in the category of ordinary men. They are serious to know about God. Therefore you cannot find in our group many thousands of people, only selected, fortunate people. So . . . but anyone can become fortunate, provided he agrees that, "There is God, and I must submit to God."

That's not . . . but that mentality is very rare to be found. It has to be created. Therefore you will find not very many followers of this Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement. But one who is following he is very fortunate.

Interviewer: How many centers are there altogether, then? How many have you opened personally, yourself?

Devotee: Fifty-two.

Interviewer: You've opened all of them?

Devotee: Yes.

Interviewer: I see.

Prabhupāda: Fifty-two outside India, but in India there are many thousands.

Interviewer: I see. And what specifically will you do in Australia? How long will you be here for, and what will you do while you are here?

Prabhupāda: Well, I am going from Australia day after tomorrow. I simply came to see my disciples, how they are doing; to give them direction, further direction to improve. That's all. But if the Australian people like to hear me, I invite any scientist, any philosopher to understand. But I don't think they are interested.
