Prabhupāda: Preaching must go on vigorously.
Gopāla Kṛṣṇa: Especially book distribution is getting very strong with Indians.
Prabhupāda: Yes. Preaching means book distribution. Now utilize here this flag ceremony.
Girirāja: Yes.
Gopāla Kṛṣṇa: Flag ceremony. Oh that Gujarati? They have a... When is that?
Girirāja: On the tenth. Procession is on the tenth.
Prabhupāda: Do in such a way that that Sharma will feel something.
Gopāla Kṛṣṇa: Only thing is most of our devotees may be in Allahabad. January 10th? All the devotees will be in Allahabad for that Kumbhamela and I don't think we have enough to...
Prabhupāda: No, no. They can go after the tenth.
Gopāla Kṛṣṇa: After tenth. Okay.
Prabhupāda: By fourteenth or by thirteenth. It takes only one night from here to Allahabad.
Gopāla Kṛṣṇa: Twenty-six hours. We're thinking of renting a small bus for devotees because coming back would be a problem.
Prabhupāda: I think Allahabad takes twenty-four hours.
Gopāla Kṛṣṇa: Twenty-six hours.
Prabhupāda: Twenty-six hours by train?
Gopāla Kṛṣṇa: Yes.
Prabhupāda: And Calcutta?
Gopāla Kṛṣṇa: Calcutta it is thirty-six hours.
Prabhupāda: Another ten hours.
Gopāla Kṛṣṇa: About thirty-six hours.
Prabhupāda: Hare Kṛṣṇa, Hare Kṛṣṇa. Preach as much as possible. By saṅkīrtana, big saṅkīrtana. Big saṅkīrtana is book distribution and small saṅkīrtana is with mṛdaṅga. Big saṅkīrtana is going on all over the world. Small saṅkīrtana locally. Overflood the demons' Godless civilization. Our declaration of war against this Godless civilization.
Girirāja: I met a very, very nice boy yesterday. His father is a life member, but he's studying in Boston at MIT.
Prabhupāda: Oh, technology.
Girirāja: Very superexcellent student. But he was so submissive and inquisitive that he could really... And because he lives there...
Prabhupāda: He qualified? No.
Girirāja: He's finishing his Ph.D.
Prabhupāda: Oh. So he's very qualified.
Girirāja: Yes. And his father said that he is always the first rank in the class. Very outstanding student. And I mean the best thing is his attitude towards Kṛṣṇa consciousness. He asked for a copy of the Bhagavad-gītā and...
Prabhupāda: Where he is now?
Girirāja: He's in Bombay so I invited him to meet you. Actually, he was so interested that the father became scared at the end. He said... You know first he was encouraging me to influence the boy but then at the end he said, "Don't make him a sādhu."
Prabhupāda: Now he has opened his mind.
