Śyāmasundara: George is going to Portugal next month for reading and chanting. He's . . .
Prabhupāda: Oh, Portugal?
Śyāmasundara: Portugal is a country in Europe, near Spain.
Revatīnandana: On the side of Spain, Portugal.
Prabhupāda: Portugal, yes.
Śyāmasundara: It's quiet and sunny there. So he wants to go and chant and read. He's beginning to read Kṛṣṇa book now. He said: "I've had it here so many years. I even wrote the Foreword, but I've never read it. So now I began to read it." And he reads every day. He's into the Fourth Chapter now.
Prabhupāda: Oh.
Śyāmasundara: Yeah, and he says he's completely amazed by it, how wonderful it is, Kṛṣṇa book.
Harry Edwards: (finishes reading letter) Very nice, yeah.
Prabhupāda: Yes.
Harry Edwards: Really.
Prabhupāda: In Athens, we stopped for forty-five minutes. The . . . I was going to Nairobi. So some young men, by seeing us, began to chant, "Hare Kṛṣṇa."
Harry Edwards: Yes.
Prabhupāda: So everywhere we go, as soon as people see us, they say: "Hare Kṛṣṇa." In Montreal, when I was going on road, the children will chant, "Hare Kṛṣṇa." So it is now popular. Yes.
Harry Edwards: Popular. Yes.
Harry Edwards: Popular. Yes.
Revatīnandana: Just last summer we were walking in . . . was it St. James' Park?
Prabhupāda: Yes.
Revatīnandana: Around that pond. And one old bum was there on the park bench. We went by and stood up: "Hare Kṛṣṇa." (laughter)
