Yes... No, we can give you the names if... Yes. So you can submit immediately some of the names. Because we are organizing there, and the security department there: "Oh, your visa is now complete. You please return."
Room Conversation with Indian Ambassador -- September 5, 1973, Stockholm:

Ambassador: Have you been to Kerala ever?

Prabhupāda: Yes, I was in Cochin. While coming to New York, I came on ship. So my ship stopped in Cochin. Yes.

Ambassador: I see. We have got some wonderful Kṛṣṇa temples, Kṛṣṇa temples.

Prabhupāda: In Cochin?

Ambassador: In Cochin? Not in Cochin town. There is, but not very famous, but the one about ten miles from Cochin, where I come from, is one of the greatest temples called Pūrṇa-trayeśa (?). This is a very good. The Cochin royal family used to stay...

Prabhupāda: Oh. Oh, you come from there?

Ambassador: Yes.

Prabhupāda: Swami Cinmayananda also comes from there?

Ambassador: Yes. Swami Cinmayananda comes from Vernayakulam.(?)

Prabhupāda: Vernayakulam(?), yes.

Ambassador: I come from about five miles. I actually used to know him when, before he became... When he was a journalist.

Prabhupāda: Eh?

Ambassador: I used to know him when he was a journalist.

Prabhupāda: Oh, he was a journalist?

Ambassador: Yes, before. In Dacra.(?)

Prabhupāda: Oh.

Ambassador: But is there any special, specific person who wants to go to India immediately?

Prabhupāda: Yes.

Ambassador: Who would like to have visa?

Prabhupāda: No, we can give you the names if...

Ambassador: I see. Please give me the name and the nationality. I can immediately (indistinct).

Prabhupāda: Yes. So you can submit immediately some of the names. Because we are organizing there, and the security department there: "Oh, your visa is now complete. You please return."

Ambassador: I know.

Prabhupāda: But who... We have got now temples. Who will manage that? Big, big temples I have constructed. In Navadvīpa, in Hyderabad.

Ambassador: Navadvīpa... Of course, Navadvīpa is...

Prabhupāda: In Vṛndāvana.

Ambassador: (indistinct)

Prabhupāda: Yes, In Vṛndāvana. We have got very, very, big, big temples now. So those temples, the Indians are callous. They are after technology. They are not coming. So how I'll manage, how I'll manage them if they are driven away? That is my problem. But the Indian boys, they are not coming. Indian educated... They are coming, but not very educated.

Ambassador: That's... I, I understand what you mean.

Prabhupāda: Yes. The educated Indian, boys, they'll accept good service. Why they come to temple?

Ambassador: I'm sorry. You are right.

Prabhupāda: That is education. They are not prepared to spread this Kṛṣṇa consciousness. They want some good service and enjoy life. That's all.

Ambassador: (indistinct)

Prabhupāda: No, no. You can place there. What you want just now?

Ambassador: I just want to place it here, and that washroom.

Prabhupāda: Yes, you can wash inside. (break)
