Now come forward. I shall begin our... Where is your father and mother? You can please come here. Yes. You can sit down here with the girls. Or give them some pads. They will feel... They are not accustomed to sit. (chuckles) Yes. My disciples, they have been accustomed. (chuckles)
Satyabhāmā: Paramānanda's parents are here also.
Prabhupāda: Yes. Let them come also.
Satyabhāmā: (aside:) Would you like to sit on cushions?
Prabhupāda: So both the parents agree in this marriage.
Satyabhāmā's father: Yes.
Prabhupāda: Oh, thank you. Now those who are initiated, you can chant Hare Kṛṣṇa on your beads. (devotees chant japa) (break) (recitation of fire sacrifice prayers)
Prabhupāda: Now, you are father?
Satyabhāmā's father: Yes.
Prabhupāda: So you can say to your son-in-law that "So long my daughter such and such was under my custody. From today I am giving this daughter under your custody." Say it.
Satyabhāmā's father: Kate has been under me until now, and I give her unto your custody.
Prabhupāda: You say, "Yes, I accept."
Paramānanda: Yes, I accept.
Prabhupāda: And you say, "Yes, I agree."
Paramānanda's father: Yes, I agree.
Prabhupāda: Now you say that "My dear such and such, I agree to serve you throughout my life."
Satyabhāmā: Paramānanda, I agree to serve you throughout my life.
Prabhupāda: And you say, "My dear such and such, I take your charge of life throughout without hesitation."
Paramānanda: My dear Satyabhāmā, I take your charge of life throughout without hesitation.
Prabhupāda: So there is no separation in any circumstances. Promise that. There is no separation in any circumstances.
Paramānanda: So there is no separation in any circumstances.
Prabhupāda: Yes. Now you garland this... You change the garland. Now you come to this side. You go to that side. Now you are legal husband and wife. Is that all right? Yes. Now chant Hare Kṛṣṇa. (break) (prayers, fire sacrifice) Now offer this plantain like this, slowly. Thank you.
Satyabhāmā: Hare Kṛṣṇa. (devotees repeat last prayer of sacrifice after Prabhupāda, the mahā-mantra.)
Prabhupāda: Now bow down. (leads in recitation of praṇāma mantra) You chant Hare Kṛṣṇa.
