Brahmānanda: You told me that when I came from Pakistan to India. I was complaining how difficult it was, but you said that a businessman makes profit in any circumstance.

Prabhupāda: Yes. That is business. They are . . . police has no eyes to see that the Bal-Krishna (Guru Maharaji) is regularly cheating. Any man can understand.

Jayatīrtha: Yes.

Prabhupāda: There is no stoppage of that here. Yes. And here, stoppage. Just see. It is clear conspiracy. It is not that police. Police cannot be so powerful that he can stop. If there was any discrepancy, why did not they take step that, "You have done . . . you have violated the rules"? They should have prosecuted us. Now, without saying anything at that time, now want to stop it.

Jayatīrtha: It's just their tactic.

Prabhupāda: It is tactic. They're factually seeing that, "These people, they have brought some Jagannātha, and thousands of people following it. And nobody's coming to our church?" It is very commonsense thing. The church has being closed. And all the young men, they are joining. Not old men, old fools. No. All young, flourishing young men are joining. So they want to stop it now. (pause) Take it. (break)

Madhukāṇṭa: . . . regard, Śrīla Prabhupāda, you said that we are making counter-propaganda against ''māyā'', and that ''māyā'' will make propaganda very strong.

Prabhupāda: Yes.

Madhukāṇṭa: So we must become very sincere devotees or . . .

Prabhupāda: Unless we are very sincere, we cannot cope with ''māyā''. That is not possible. If you remain a servant of ''māyā'', you cannot conquer over ''māyā''. You must be very sincere servant of Kṛṣṇa. Then you can conquer. ''Mām eva ye prapadyante māyām etāṁ taranti te'' ([[vanisource:BG 7.14 (1972)|BG 7.14]]). It is clearly said. Otherwise, you are subjected to the tricks of ''māyā''.

Bahulāśva: Unless one surrenders to Kṛṣṇa.

Prabhupāda: Then you can get rid of ''māyā's'' tricks. Otherwise, you may dress yourself like anything, but you are simply ''māyā's'' servant. Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura has sung one . . . ''ei ota kalir chelā'': "Here is another disciple of Kali." ''Nake tilaka galai mālā''. "He has got ''tilaka'' on the nose and ''mālā, kaṇṭhī'', also." ''Sahaja bhajana kache namu saṅge laiyā pare bhalo'': "And he's . . . he has become a Vaiṣṇava by illicit sex." This is stated by Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura. "Here is a Kali's ''chelā''. He has dressed like a Vaiṣṇava, but he is doing his ''bhajan'' with illicit sex." ''Sahaje bhajana kache mamu saṅge lana pare bhalo''. You know? There is a class of ''sahajiyās''?

Bali-mardana: Yes.
