Interviewer: And you said that your followers may not drink? What about the drug picture, marijuana, LSD, and those?
Prabhupāda: No, no, we don't... There is no question, because all kinds of intoxication prohibited. We don't allow even smoking and tea-drinking, coffee-taking. You see? Any kind of intoxication we don't allow.
Interviewer: In other words, I guess it would be correct to say that this is in the Western sense of the word, a religious order.
Prabhupāda: It is not religious order. It is cultural because one cannot understand higher philosophical things if he is intoxicated.
