Paramahaṁsa: Well, they found some parts of a subway there, some big tunnel. But they don't know where it goes, though.
Prabhupāda: Yes, yes. That is from Ceylon to Brazil, subway. And Rāvaṇa's civilization, Rāmacandra's fight, some millions of years ago. That is in the Tretā-yuga. The duration of Kali-yuga is about, say, four lakhs of years. And Dvāpara-yuga, eight lakhs of years. And then Tretā-yuga, twelve lakhs of years.
Paramahaṁsa: About two millions years ago, Tretā-yuga.
Prabhupāda: Yes. No, why? Twenty lakhs, ah, two million, yes. Two millions of years ago the Rāvaṇa's civilization was there, and he was so prosperous. He had airplane. The zeplin, zeplin?
Amogha: Jet plane?
Prabhupāda: Not jet, zeplin.
Amogha: Oh, with the air and gas inside.
Prabhupāda: Yes. His son's name was Meghadūta. He was flying above the cloud. Therefore his name was Megha. Megha means cloud. They were so much advanced in civilization.
Paramahaṁsa: What kind of civilization was in South America at that time?
Prabhupāda: The same like. Therefore these Mexicans, South American, they resemble therefore almost Indian body.
Amogha: They also eat food... They eat a food similar to the cāpāṭi.
Prabhupāda: Yes.
Amogha: Tortillas.
Prabhupāda: Cāpāṭi, in Middle East also they eat.
Devotee (1): Yes, in Lebanon.
Paramahaṁsa: In Tehran we saw those big cāpāṭis.
Prabhupāda: Yes.
Paramahaṁsa: Six feet long.
Prabhupāda: Yes, so big. One cāpāṭi is sufficient for the whole family. They are sold in market, purchased.
Śrutakīrti: Very cheaply.
Paramahaṁsa: Only three or four cents apiece.
Prabhupāda: Ācchā?
Paramahaṁsa: Yeah.
Prabhupāda: They don't make much profit. That is the oriental culture. They make little profit; they are satisfied. Still in India you will find many hotel, very cheap, very cheap. Especially Mohammedan hotels. Still, by paying eight annas, you can get full meal.
