| <p>Prabhupāda: Yes. So if I get time... My time is very limited. So even there is difficulty, let them read over and over and again. Then they will understand. Why should we change it? Let it be presented as Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī has given, and... Then don't give more than one or two pages at a time. Their brain will be puzzled. (laughter) Yes. When Guru Mahārāja was speaking, at least my brain was puzzled. (laughter) Even he would speak in Bengali, it was very difficult to understand. He was speaking from a very, very high platform. But I wanted to hear him. That's all. Even I did not understand it. That he appreciated, (laughs) that "This boy does not go away. He hears." Actually that was my position. In the beginning I could not understand what he was speaking, but I wanted to hear him. That's all. I was very much anxious to hear him. That he marked. And he was kindly pleased on me, that "He wants to hear. He does not go away." That was my policy, that "let me hear. Even I do not understand, let me hear." That's all. Yes. Actually I did not understand in the beginning what he was speaking. So Bhaktisiddhānta's writing is not very easy to understand. Yes. But we should try, read and read again, and simply that vibration will help us. That's all. It is transcendental vibration, not that everyone will understand. But if you simply give aural reception to the vibration, that will make him advanced, not exactly that anyone has to understand it. Yes. Just like a man is sleeping and somebody is calling him. In his sleeping condition he does not understand. By calling, calling, calling, he gets up because that vibration is there. Not that in his sleeping condition he is understanding what is this sound is coming. So similarly, we should give reception to the transcendental vibrations made by Kṛṣṇa and His bona fide representatives. That will make us awakened. Not that we understand everything.</p></div>

| | Hayagrīva: I have though of doing Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī's ''Brahma-saṁhitā''. Do you think we could serialize it maybe in three or four ''Back to Godheads''? Or could we print it ourselves in a little pamphlet? Or which do you think would be better? |
| | |
| | Prabhupāda: No, if you publish in ''Back to Godhead'', then by portion, similarly, three, four pages. That's all, continually, Bhaktisiddhānta's . . . so when there will be articles sorted, first Guru Mahārāja's, Bhaktisiddhānta's, then mine. Like that. Yes. |
| | |
| | Hayagrīva: Yes. Do you think it would be a good . . . |
| | |
| | Prabhupāda: If you write something, quotation, from Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura, that should be first. Just like ''guru-paramparā'', when we offer our respect, first our own spiritual master, then his spiritual master, then his spiritual master. In this way. But when putting article, that should be the opposite. First Bhaktivinoda, then Bhaktisiddhānta, then my, then my disciples, like that. |
| | |
| | Kīrtanānanda: Why don't you write some purports to that? |
| | |
| | Prabhupāda: Huh? |
| | |
| | Kīrtanānanda: To Bhaktisiddhānta's ''Brahma-saṁhitā''. It would be nice if you would write some purports to it. |
