I never keep my Bhagavata on the floor. I keep always my head. So better you take it. I keep my Bhagavata either on this table or on the head, and never on the floor

Conversations and Morning Walks

1974 Conversations and Morning Walks

This instruction was for you, that you are keeping. I never keep my Bhāgavata on the floor. I keep always my head. So better you take it. (laughter) (laughing) I keep my Bhāgavata either on this table or on the head, and never on the floor. So that is for you.

Prabhupāda: This instruction was for you, that you are keeping. I never keep my Bhāgavata on the floor. I keep always my head. So better you take it. (laughter) (laughing) I keep my Bhāgavata either on this table or on the head, and never on the floor. So that is for you. (laughter) Yes. Then next? (laughter) Yes. It is good, nice.

Amogha: This was knitted by a devotee who came from Sydney—a scarf for you to wear in the cold.

Prabhupāda: Hmm. That's nice.

Amogha: And I also brought one from me.

Prabhupāda: That's nice.

Amogha: And some mangoes . . .

Prabhupāda: Oh, that is good.

Amogha: . . . from Queensland, very nice mangoes. They are really difficult to get.

Prabhupāda: Mangoes, very good. The mango I like very much. Mango is the king of all fruit. Do you accept it or not?

Amogha: Yes.

Prabhupāda: It is the king of fruits. Rose is the king of flowers. There is a statement in the Caitanya-ca . . . two fruits. One fruit is the Neem tree fruit. You have seen Neem tree? In not your country. Neem tree you have seen in India, and their fruits . . .

Bhūrijana: A little bitter.

Prabhupāda: Yes, very bitter. So the cuckoo, they try to eat the mango fruit flower when small, and the crow, they eat that Neem tree fruit. So amongst the birds also, there is discrimination according to the quality. Cuckoo sings very nicely. He is fond of mango fruit. And the crow is fond of this Neem tree fruit. The white swan, they live in a very nice garden—there is lake, flower. And the crows, they live in the city. Of course, here in your country the garbage is not open. In India there is thrown anywhere, and the crows . . . you have seen it?

Devotees: Yes.

Prabhupāda: They enjoy that. Tad-vāyasaṁ-tīrtham. It is mentioned in the Bhāgavata. Tad vāyasaṁ-tīrtham. (aside) Find out this. No, it is in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam.

Satsvarūpa: Part One?

Prabhupāda: Na tad-vacaś citra-padaṁ harer yaśo pragṛṇīta karhicit tad vāyasaṁ-tīrtham uṣanti mānasāḥ (SB 1.5.10).

Jagattāriṇī: Śrīla Prabhupāda, my friends have to leave now.
