Lectures

Bhagavad-gita As It Is Lectures

Four annas means, according to modern exchange, it is five cents only, five cents according to your exchange value.
Lecture on BG 4.19-22 -- New York, August 8, 1966:

In our childhood, when I was a boy of eight or ten years, sometimes I used to accompany my father. My father was a great devotee. He would take prasādam from the temple. So I have got experience that we paid for two dishes, four annas. Four annas means, according to modern exchange, it is five cents only, five cents according to your exchange value. For five cents we were, very nice prasādam we can get. Two persons we were fed. Still there is a place which is called Nāthadvāra. Nāthadvāra, if you pay there two annas, you will get worth prasādam, two dollars worth. So this system is going on still.
