Prabhupāda: You must take this clue, that we American, we say: "In God We Trust." Now, every American should know what is God, what is trust. This is propaganda, Kṛṣṇa consciousness. The government must come forward to patronize this. This is my proposition. So you write articles. You are theologicians. The America must rise up to the occasion. They have pledged themselves, "In God We Trust." Every human nation or every human being should be like that. In God they must trust. So America has especially taken up the slogan as part of Constitution. Now there should be regular educational program, that every child, every man, every woman will trust in God. And this is Kṛṣṇa consciousness. So? Am I wrong in my arguments? Karandhara: No, correct.

Prabhupāda: Turn your whole nation, turn into God consciousness. Because they've declared in the Constitution, "In God We Trust." Now they must take it very seriously. What does it mean by "God"? What does it mean by "trust"? You take this propaganda. We are doing, actually. We trust in God; therefore we have sacrificed our whole life for God. This is trust in God. Not that smoking in the parlor, and we trust in God. Not that kind of trust. Real trust.

Trust means first of all you know what is God. Suppose that if you say: "Trust this man." But I must know what is this man. Then my trust will be convinced, that "He is a very respectful man, he's rich man, he's able man . . . yes, I can trust." But simply "Trust in God," you do not know what is God, what is trust, and it is going on. Why this bluff? Ah? What you say?

Prajāpati: That that's right, Śrīla Prabhupāda.

Prabhupāda: Yes. So you must take this clue, that we American, we say: "In God We Trust." Now, every American should know what is God, what is trust. This is propaganda, Kṛṣṇa consciousness. The government must come forward to patronize this. This is my proposition. So you write articles. You are theologicians. The America must rise up to the occasion.

They have pledged themselves, "In God We Trust." Every human nation or every human being should be like that. In God they must trust. So America has especially taken up the slogan as part of Constitution. Now there should be regular educational program, that every child, every man, every woman will trust in God. And this is Kṛṣṇa consciousness. So? Am I wrong in my arguments?

Karandhara: No, correct.

Prabhupāda: So why don't you take it seriously, you American boys?

Prajāpati: Also in the Constitution, Śrīla Prabhupāda, there is a thing called separation of Church and State, that they would have . . .

Prabhupāda: Yes, that is all right. We want to educate; we don't want to take part in administration. But the administration should be under our guidance. They should take advice from us, how to do it. That is required. We are not going to be president. We are satisfied in our humble temple.
