Prabhupāda: So don't worry. Kṛṣṇa will give you better place.
Satsvarūpa: That was a disappointment because we almost, almost had it.
Prabhupāda: Yes. No question of disappointment. In Los Angeles, we had so many disappointments. At last, we got very nice place. Now we are after bigger place.
Candanācārya: Tell Swamiji about the church we want to get.
Miss Rose: The church...?
Prabhupāda: Then that article has worked adversely?
Satsvarūpa: Yeah. The real estate man said if it had only come out a week later, he said, "You'd be in."
Prabhupāda: So publicity like this is not good for us, that people are thinking we are hippies.
Miss Rose: Yes. That's true, Swamiji. Yeah.
Prabhupāda: So then you should not give publicity. You must even in the beginning verify that we are not hippies. Hare Kṛṣṇa movement is not for hippies. In many places this is a notion, that we are hippies.
Devotee: Montreal.
Prabhupāda: Eh?
Devotee: Montreal too, the same thing.
Miss Rose: Yes, but a lot of hippies have gone back to... They've went to Florida, Swamiji. Thousands of hippies went back to Florida. They left Boston.
Prabhupāda: They are, most of them, in Hawaii also.
Miss Rose: Oh, there's some in Hawaii too?
Prabhupāda: Yes.
Miss Rose: Oh.
Candanācārya: Prabhupāda, I think he was worried because... (Break)
Prabhupāda: ...all right. We don't hate hippies. We have nothing... But these people misunderstand. That is... That is another thing. We welcome everyone. We have no such distinction.
Miss Rose: Oh, yes, yes. Everyone can come.
Prabhupāda: Never mind.
Miss Rose: Kṛṣṇa's good.
Prabhupāda: Yes.
Devotee: Kṛṣṇa wants a better place for us.
Miss Rose: Kṛṣṇa wants a better place.
Prabhupāda: (laughing) And also it is a fact that many of our students have come from the hippies.
Haṁsadūta: Almost all of them. (laughter)
Prabhupāda: So they are our best candidates. So you can advertise that "We are not hippies, but we are converting many hippies to the sane condition of life." That's a fact. They are searching after something better, but they have no leader.
Miss Rose: Yes, that's true. That's it.
Prabhupāda: They have no leader. Now, if they come to us seriously, they get the right thing. But that is also their defect. When we propose, "Come and take this Kṛṣṇa," they don't want. They want that marijuana.
