<p>Prabhupāda: And this means that ambrosia. And you are all Mohinī-mūrti, distributing ambrosia. These scriptures should be brought to the (indistinct) system, and they'll get opportunity to meet with them. So how...?</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Yeah, I also... It could mean... According to Gopāla, from Africa, that prasāda...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Prasāda from...</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: From all over.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Has he come with some news?</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: No one knows, Śrīla Prabhupāda.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: How they'll do? They have no asset. Engrossed with bogus things, cheating. That was my ambition. You have seen that Delhi shop? He was preparing first-class ghee, and all, hundred... So we are giving the real spiritual life. Automatically there is response. Customers will come. And (indistinct). And you can cheat somebody. (pause)</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Śrīla Prabhupāda, the Śyāmasundara Deity in temple today was beautiful.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: That Deity is very, very nice, Śyāmasundara. Yaṁ śyāmasundaram acintya-guṇa-svarūpaṁ govindam ādi-puruṣaṁ tam ahaṁ bhajāmi.</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: When you see that Deity, are you... Do you call it Śyāmasundara or Govinda?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: And Śyāmasundara is good name.</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: More appropriate.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Nitāi-Gaura, Rādhā-Śyāma, Jaya Kṛṣṇa-Balarāma. (laughter) That includes all our Deities. Nitāi-Gaura, Rādhā-Śyāma, Jaya Kṛṣṇa-Balarāma. The "jaya" word is in the middle with this "Jaya, Haribol."</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Jaya is very auspicious.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: I don't think there is any other temple in India, in this quarter... I can say, in India... (end)</p>
