1977 Conversations and Morning Walks

No. You have read?
Conversations -- April 19, 1977, Bombay:

Prabhupāda: And this opening hospital, that is not Vedic civilization.

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: No.

Prabhupāda: That is Western idea. "Give him some relief." Modern.

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Most of the time, instead of relieving, they make things even more difficult.

Prabhupāda: Because they do not know. Nowadays they make experiment.

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: I got the feeling that that gentleman yesterday was experimenting...

Prabhupāda: Hm.

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: ...or guessing. Have you read the book of Satsvarūpa Mahārāja?

Prabhupāda: No. You have read?

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: No. I was thinking I could read some portion of it to you if you would like to hear it. Or I could read some other book.

Prabhupāda: You can read his book.

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Would you like to hear some of it?

Prabhupāda: Hm. Keep it there. (break) ...is a Bengali common word. It is said, ksoprai kanana(?). Ksopra(?), that is like a coconut. Coconut pulp is within, and it is covered with a hard... What is called?

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Shell.

Prabhupāda: ...shell, and again covered with fiber.

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Husk.

Prabhupāda: Yes. So these people are interested with the fiber, not with the pulp. So all discoveries of the modern education, they are ksoprai kanana(?).

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: That fiber is the least valuable part.
