- Also they bump one another with the drum or with each other's bodies, they dance and they bump like this. That is not bona fide is it? It is very popular in our movement now
- And that they should not bump each other or dance with each other personally, distracting the attention from the Deity? Shouldn't all the dancing be focused toward the Deity?

- I also wanted to ask a question, Srila Prabhupada, on dancing in the temple room during arati, especially mangala-arati. Is it not that the devotees should not turn their back while dancing to the Deity?

- I would like to know if it is all right to play the Battle of Kuruksetra?
- If music is important to us?
- If we were in plays and we are playing such great personalities, how should we be thinking?
- If you can just tell me what you, the best way to have a nice scene of Jagai and Madhai?
- Is there any other information about Haridasa (and after burial there was distribution of prasadam and kirtana. Haridasa Ṭhakura. So here you have to show some talks with Haridasa, how feelingly)?
- Is there anyone there? Any of these characters there? I'm trying to introduce these characters (Srinivasa and Haridasa)
- It's all right that the women are dancing (I told him that you make some play for showing here in Vrndavana)?
N
- Now in the second scene He visits another temple. And is there going to be another narration about how the temple was founded? I don't think that's... I don't know. (laughs) Do you think that will be all right?
- Now is that all of the fourth scene (of a Lord Caitanya play)? Anything else in the fourth scene?
- Now the second scene here, this is when Caitanya on the seashore, this is when He would walk around saying, "Where is Krsna?" Is that right?
- Now the second scene. Is that the end of the first (scene of Lord Caitanya's play)?
- Now this third scene, meets Sanatana Gosvami, that's in Benares. And Sanatana is how old?
- Now we have the fourth scene. Does Advaita speak to anyone in the fourth scene or is that...?

- Should there be kirtana, Srila Prabhupada? You like kirtana?
- Should we chant it now? ... All the Brahma-samhita? Or those two in particular?
- So normally we don't use mic at all, but sometimes the devotees don't know how to sing very sweetly. Whether we should use a small microphone for his voice?

- So Srila Prabhupada, there's chanting party ready to do sankirtana. So may they come in?
- Some kirtana, Srila Prabhupada?
- Srila Prabhupada, sometimes during arati, many bona fide bhajanas are sung, but not much Hare Krsna. Is that not a good tendency, that maybe just two or three minutes of Hare Krsna mantra and many other bhajanas?

T
- That's the third scene, the rasa dance. So Radharani appears in that?
- The fifth scene is renunciation of household life... This is at age...? This is considerably later then. This is about ten years later
- The question is whether should it be played in the temple or not (western style songs recorded by devotees)?
- Then why do you say that it's all right and all that? I mean is it a compromise or what?... I mean the fact that we are doing songwriting and all that. It's a waste of time, isn't it? Without Krsna
- There's a scene about Lord Caitanya embracing the leper Vasudeva. Is that a nice scene to perform?
- To learn how to sing them nicely. To learn how to sing them (Each verse is a song. I wanted our students should do that)?
