| |
| <p>Revatīnandana: And they must also study your books.</p>
| |
| <p>Prabhupāda: Yes. Otherwise, so many Indian temples or churches, they think, "The church is there; everything is finished." No. Why people are losing interest in church? There is no preaching. Neither do they know what is preaching. They simply think that "This building will attract people." So they are now on sale.</p>
| |
| <p>Revatīnandana: In Calcutta it was like that. Everywhere we attract people with the Deity worship, but we hold them with the lectures.</p>
| |
| <p>Prabhupāda: Yes. (break) Come on. So how you were allowed to enter?</p>
| |
| <p>Śivānanda: Oh, it was all right. No difficulty. No difficulty.</p>
| |
| <p>Prabhupāda: Last time you had difficulty.</p>
| |
| <p>Śivānanda: No. Last year it was all right also. But before that it was...</p>
| |
| <p>Prabhupāda: Before that. So what news?</p>
| |
| <p>Śivānanda: Nice place in Heidelburg. Kṛṣṇa gave us a very nice temple there.</p>
| |
| <p>Prabhupāda: Your health is all right?</p>
| |
| <p>Śivānanda: My health is fine.</p>
| |
| <p>Prabhupāda: Thank you. You are the pioneer of European activities.</p>

| <p>Śivānanda: Yes.</p>
| |
| <p>Prabhupāda: From Montreal, you were pushed. Yes. And from San Francisco, Gaurasundara was pushed to Hawaii. (chuckles) So Śivānanda Prabhu was also pushed from Montreal. So Kṛṣṇa is very much pleased. And Sudama was pushed to Japan. Now, anyway, that pushing has not become unsuccessful. (end)</p>

| | Haṁsadūta: In, in the ''Bhagavad-gītā'' Kṛṣṇa also, He says to Arjuna, "What need is there of all this knowledge? Just know that with one spark of My splendor I am pervading everything." |
| | |
| | Prabhupāda: That's all. How He is doing that, it is very difficult to know. ''Jñāne prayāsam udapāsya namanta eva san-mukharitāṁ bhavadīya-vārtām jīvanti'' ([[Vanisource:SB 10.14.3|SB 10.14.3]]). |
| | |
| | Śyāmasundara: I see that they've got a telephone in Māyāpur now. |
| | |
| | Prabhupāda: Hmm? |
| | |
| | Śyāmasundara: They, they have a telephone in Māyāpur. |
| | |
| | Prabhupāda: Oh! |
| | |
| | Śyāmasundara: Svarupa Ganj 31. |
| | |
| | Prabhupāda: That's nice. That . . . that is wanted. |
| | |
| | Śyāmasundara: Yeah. (laughs with Prabhupāda) There's actually a telephone there. |
| | |
| | Prabhupāda: So many American brains are there, if they do not do like that, then what is the use? Have you seen the letter heading then? |
| | |
| | Śyāmasundara: Oh, it has a little on the side, Māyāpur Center. |
| | |
| | Prabhupāda: Oh, this is the same, Calcutta. |
| | |
| | Śyāmasundara: Mm-hm. |
| | |
| | Prabhupāda: Ah, Māyāpur Center. Sridhama Māyāpur, District Nadia, Phone Svarupa Ganj 31. |
| | |
| | Śyāmasundara: You can actually telephone them someday. Yeah, if you manage to get through. |
| | |
| | Prabhupāda: Construct big, big temples, and keep it alive—by ''kīrtana'', by book distribution, by distribution ''prasāda''. "And now we have got big temple, let us eat ''prasāda'' and sleep. (laughing) Then temple, will also sleep. That's all." Now we should also keep it in mind, unless there are four, five devotees experienced, we should not center, open a center, because alone he becomes polluted. Without any association he thinks otherwise and becomes fallen down, that which has happened to Kṛṣṇa dāsa. When he was alone, he, he could not manage. There was debts, and he became disgusted.

| | Prabhupāda: That's all right. You just living . . . keep them alive. |
| | |
| | Haṁsadūta: That's right, yeah. |
| | |
| | Prabhupāda: Simply because you have opened a center the business is finished, no. |
| | |
