Prabhupāda: Anyway, criticize or not criticize, we have to give everything carefully. But our preaching must be to save the people from pitfalls.
Śyāmasundara: Hmm.
Prabhupāda: Acyutānanda has done a great service.
Śyāmasundara: Yes.
Prabhupāda: A great service, in Navadvīpa. And therefore he has been elected as secretary.
Śyāmasundara: Yes.
Prabhupāda: They are appreciating.
Śyāmasundara: Yes.
Prabhupāda: So similarly, we shall preach. It is true that our authorities . . . always reading should be continually going on in our centers. These books, regularly should be discussed and preached: the ideal life of Kṛṣṇa, ideal gṛhastha, householder, what He is doing. Our gṛhastha is not condemned, but provided he is right gṛhastha. But Kṛṣṇa had sixteen thousand wives. He is lying down there with Kṛṣṇa . . . they are lying down, and who can leave Kṛṣṇa? If one has got Kṛṣṇa . . . they know Kṛṣṇa is the Supreme Personality of Godhead. So they are embracing Kṛṣṇa. How much happy they are? Eh?
Śyāmasundara: Yes. (laughs)
Prabhupāda: But still Kṛṣṇa gets out.
Śyāmasundara: (laughs) As soon as the first cock is crowing.
Prabhupāda: How much devoted, beautiful. They are select . . . spiritual, they are not material. Their bodies are not material bodies. Kṛṣṇa does not embrace a material woman.
