| <p>Prabhupāda: Agra, which?</p>
| | Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Some people came here to the temple from Manipur today, Śrīla Prabhupāda. Did you preach to them, Svarūpa Dāmodara? |
| <p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Agra which university, Svarūpa Dāmodara?</p>
| | |
| <p>Svarūpa Dāmodara: Agra University is composed of several colleges. It's called Agra College, actually. It's the biggest university in Agra.</p>
| | Svarūpa Dāmodara: Yes. They are very impressed. They said they'll come many. They told me they're going to come many, in many numbers. |
| <p>Bhagatji: And Agra University is the biggest university in UP.</p>
| | |
| <p>Svarūpa Dāmodara: Many students.</p>
| | Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: What about that temple in Manipur? |
| <p>Bhagatji: It contains many colleges outside Agra also. Just in Aligarh, in Mathurā, all are affiliated to Agra University. All other universities in UP are local universities, just like Allahabad, Benares, Lucknow.</p>
| | |
| <p>Prabhupāda: This, our Bon Mahārāja's, that is also...</p>
| | Svarūpa Dāmodara: I was thinking that we can start it . . . |
| <p>Bhagatji: Affiliated to Agra University, this quarter, yes.</p>
| | |
| <p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Some people came here to the temple from Manipur today, Śrīla Prabhupāda. Did you preach to them, Svarūpa Dāmodara?</p>
| | Prabhupāda: Receive them nicely. |
| <p>Svarūpa Dāmodara: Yes. They are very impressed. They said they'll come many. They told me they're going to come in many numbers.</p>
| | |
| <p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: What about that temple in Manipur?</p>
| | Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: What, Śrīla Prabhupāda? |
| <p>Svarūpa Dāmodara: I was thinking that we can start...</p>
| | |
| <p>Prabhupāda: Receive them nicely. The Manipuri is devotee. Receive them nicely.</p>
| | Prabhupāda: The Manipuri devotees, receive them nicely. |
| <p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Didn't some Manipur devotees visit Caitanya Mahāprabhu in Jagannātha Purī sometimes?</p>
| | |
| <p>Prabhupāda: They go.</p>
| | Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Receive them nicely. Didn't some Manipur devotees visit Caitanya Mahāprabhu in Jagannātha Purī sometimes? |
| <p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: They are all Vaiṣṇavas.</p>
| | |
| <p>Svarūpa Dāmodara: Just on the western gate of Jagannātha Purī there is also a place for Manipur. Devotees there, they serve Lord Jagannātha in Purī, special section for Manipur on the western gate of Jagannātha Purī.</p>
| | Prabhupāda: They go. |
| <p>Prabhupāda: Everywhere. Navadvīpa there is Manipur Mandir. Here also.</p>
| | |
| <p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Yes, the Maharani of Manipur Mandir in Navadvīpa.</p>
| | Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: They are all Vaiṣṇavas. |
| <p>Indian man: In Vṛndāvana also Prabhupāda there is one? Which is that?</p>
| | |
| <p>Prabhupāda: The Sevā-kuñja.</p>
| | Svarūpa Dāmodara: Yes. Just on the western gate of Jagannātha Purī there is also a place for Manipur. Devotees there, they serve Lord Jagannātha in Purī, special section for Manipur on the western gate of Jagannātha Purī. |
| <p>Indian man: Sevā-kuñja.</p>
| | |
| <p>Svarūpa Dāmodara: Also in Rādhā-kuṇḍa.</p>
| | Prabhupāda: Everywhere. Navadvīpa there is Manipur Mandir. Here also. |
| <p>Indian man: Rādhā-kuṇḍa there is, I know.</p>
| | |
| <p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: That Sevā-kuñja is under the charge of the Manipuri devotees.</p>
| | Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Yes, the Maharani of Manipur Mandir in Navadvīpa. |
| <p>Prabhupāda: Manipur devotees are very enthusiastic.</p>
| | |
| <p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: So is Svarūpa Dāmodara. (Prabhupāda laughs)</p>
| | Indian guest: In Vṛndāvana also, Prabhupāda, there is one? Which is that? |
| <p>Prabhupāda: So Agra University, you lectured professors?</p>
| | |
| <p>Svarūpa Dāmodara: Yes, professors and students, mostly the professors, from all departments: physics, chemistry, mathematics, biology, and philosophy.</p>
| | Prabhupāda: The Sevā-kuñja. |
| <p>Prabhupāda: Hm!</p>
| | |
| <p>Svarūpa Dāmodara: They also asked me to bring a film from the Hare Kṛṣṇa movement. So I'm going to show the "Spiritual Frontier" just after the lecture. So I'll go with the Fairchild, the movie projector.</p>
| | Indian guest: Sevā-kuñja. |
| <p>Prabhupāda: Very good. When you have to go?</p>
| | |
| <p>Svarūpa Dāmodara: The lecture is at 3:15, so I'll go about 11 because I like to also talk personally with some professors to become members of the Institute. That's one of our projects.</p>
| | Svarūpa Dāmodara: Also in Rādhā-kuṇḍa. |
| <p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Svarūpa Dāmodara is enrolling members, Śrīla Prabhupāda.</p>
| | |
| <p>Indian man: To build his Bhaktivedanta Swami Institute?</p>
| | Indian guest: Rādhā-kuṇḍa there is, I know. |
| <p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Hm. How many members you have so far?</p>
| | |
| <p>Svarūpa Dāmodara: We have, so far, four. But one of the biggest men in Agra Medical College, Dr. Malviya, he became a member. He's a very well known biochemist. So he told me that he's going to contribute articles. We would like members, the professors of chemistry, physics, mathematics, biology.</p>
| | Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: That Sevā-kuñja is under the charge of the Manipuri devotees. |
| <p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: It seems like there is a good future for Bhaktivedanta Institute, Śrīla Prabhupāda. (pause)</p>
| | |
| <p>Prabhupāda: Who will be president?</p>
| | Prabhupāda: Manipur devotees are very enthusiastic. |
| <p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Who will be president? Of the institute, Śrīla Prabhupāda?</p>
| | |
| <p>Prabhupāda: No, tomorrow.</p>
| | Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: So is Svarūpa Dāmodara. |
| <p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Who will be present? President of the meeting?</p>
| | |
| <p>Svarūpa Dāmodara: Oh, it's arranged by the head of the chemistry department. There's one professor called Gupta. He's very enthusiastic. And there are also several professors who came to our conference. All of them are arranging together. There's one Dr. Sukla, also there's one Dr. Sharma. Three, four of them are organizing the lecture. They have... Most of the people I found there, they have great respect for ISKCON, and they appreciate Śrīla Prabhupāda's activities so much. I also requested them it is their responsibility to actually try to spread the genuine knowledge as a real science, scientists.</p>
| | Prabhupāda: So Agra University, you lectured professors? |
| <p>Prabhupāda: Yes. Stories and fables will not convince them.</p>
| | |
| <p>Svarūpa Dāmodara: I want to briefly outline tomorrow the comparative presentation of two aspects of modern science versus the Bhagavad-gītā, the varying concepts of life.</p>
| | Indian guest: Amongst profesors, or the students also? |
| <p>Prabhupāda: Very good.</p>
| | |
| <p>Svarūpa Dāmodara: We'll outline, saying that modern science thinks that we are children of chance and chemical reactions. But the Gītā says we are children of Kṛṣṇa. We are coming from the supremely conscious person.</p>
| | Svarūpa Dāmodara: Yes, professors and students; mostly the professors, from all departments: physics, chemistry, mathematics, biology and philosophy. |
| <p>Prabhupāda: Ahaṁ bīja-pradaḥ pitā ([[Vanisource:BG 14.4|BG 14.4]]).</p>
| | |
| | Prabhupāda: Hmm. |
| | |
| | Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Big! |
| | |
| | Svarūpa Dāmodara: They also asked me to bring a film from the Hare Kṛṣṇa movement. So I'm going to show the "Spiritual Frontier" just after the lecture. So I'll go with the Fairchild, the movie projector. |
