<div class="heading">They should be trained up properly. Special care should be taken. That is the idea of my Guru Mahārāja, a Gurukula. Gurukula, we are not going to make some big, big scholars.

<span class="link">[[Vanisource:Morning Walk -- July 13, 1976, New York|Morning Walk -- July 13, 1976, New York]]: </span><div class="text"><p style="display: inline;">Prabhupāda: So many children are coming, very fortunate children, from the beginning Kṛṣṇa conscious. We had the chance of taking birth from such father and mother. So all these children should be taken care of very nicely. Oh, yes. They'll be asset for our movement.</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Future hope.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Oh, yes. Therefore I wanted to organize the Gurukula very nicely. We have no objection. Let them produce hundreds of children.</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: You said that your Guru Mahārāja said...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: "If I could produce Kṛṣṇa conscious children, I am prepared to produce hundreds of children." What is the use of producing children like cats and dogs? Produce children like Prahlāda Mahārāja. The whole world will be benefited. Ekaś candras tamo hanti na ca. (break) Progeny, that is not condemned. Why it should be condemned? Let there be pregnancy, but Kṛṣṇa conscious. That, our Pradyumna's son, these, all children.</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Aniruddha.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Very nice. They should be trained up properly. Special care should be taken. That is the idea of my Guru Mahārāja, a Gurukula. Gurukula, we are not going to make some big, big scholars. We don't require scholars. We require ideal men by character, by behavior, by Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Not by studying grammar. There are many grammarians. Let them study our books nicely, English, little Sanskrit, that's all. Gurukula organize like that. We don't want big, big scholars. Unnecessarily. There are so many scholars in the universities, drinking and woman-hunting, that's all. In the universities, I know, to get the degree, pass the examination, the girls have to adopt prostitution with the teachers, I know that.</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Wow. In India?</p>
<p>Rāmeśvara: Especially in America.</p>
<p>Puṣṭa Kṛṣṇa: In America.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: That to pass the examination by prostitution. Whatever nonsense they may write, that's all right.This is Central Park still?</p>
