| <p>Hari-śauri: "Just to teach you law."</p>
| | Prabhupāda: So by this counterpropaganda we have not lost anything. |
| <p>Prabhupāda: Huh?</p>

| <p>Hari-śauri: "Just to teach you law."</p>
| | Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: No. People were not so much aware of what our movement stood for. Now, with this propaganda, we're getting an opportunity to explain to them what our movement means. |
| <p>Prabhupāda: (laughs) Yes. There was big lawyer. In those days he was earning not less than thirty-thousand per month. Rajbery Ghosh, Doctor. He was Doctor. So in one case he brought so many books in the court, the judge remarked, "Well, Dr. Ghosh, You have brought the whole library?" "Yes, my lord, just to teach you law." (laughs) No, any statement we give, it has to be considered. They cannot neglect. So you can simply put these books, eighty-four books: "This is our statement. You read them. Then give your judgement." How do you think? Did you consult any lawyer?</p>

| <p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Yes. We're going to do it. It can be done.</p>
| | Prabhupāda: I wanted that all our books should be given to the court: "This is our statement. Let him read. He can . . ." |
| <p>Prabhupāda: "It is not brainwash. It is science. You have to know the science." And actually that is the fact. The court case is going on.</p>

| <p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Yes. The next... The next date for the trial is on March the 2nd, but it may be postponed until about March the 10th. So Ādi-keśa Mahārāja wanted to take the opportunity to come and visit.</p>

| <p>Prabhupāda: Very good. The more it is prolonged, it is good for us. Things will be discussed.</p>

| <p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Yeah. We are relishing the opportunity.</p>
| | Hari-śauri: "Just to teach you law." |
| <p>Prabhupāda: Yes. (laughs) And it will be published in the paper. It is a good opportunity.</p>
| | |
| <p>Brahmānanda: Even they had a preliminary hearing, and all the major newspaper, Time Magazine, Newsweek, they were all present. And also from the Indian government.</p>
| | Prabhupāda: Huh? |
| <p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Yes, the Consulate. The Indian Consulate came. Ādi-keśa Mahārāja has been contacting some of the important officials. He has had a lot of meetings with the Ambassador. So the Ambassador ordered that from the Consulate one person must come to give a statement that the Indian government supports the Hare Kṛṣṇa movement. So they came and made this statement.</p>
| | |
| <p>Prabhupāda: Oh, that is... (laughs)</p>

| <p>Brahmānanda: As official... And he was ordered to do so by Indira.</p>
| | |
| <p>Prabhupāda: Yes, the Home member. The Home member said to... "We want that this movement should be spread all over the world."</p>
