Prabhupāda: ...offering his blessings upon you. You are fulfilling his mission. He wanted that European, American should come here. It is all Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura's blessing. Hare Kṛṣṇa. So there is no scarcity of space for keeping all the devotees?
Bhavānanda: Everyone is situated...
Prabhupāda: Huh?
Bhavānanda: Everyone is situated in rooms.
Jayapatākā: Without these dwelling..., wall dwellings, there would have been no hope.
Prabhupāda: Therefore I said, (laughter) "You must complete, and whatever amount required, I shall pay." That I could analyze. (temple bells ringing in background) (break)
Jayapatākā: ...you Śrīla Prabhupāda. Only by your mercy you have brought us to this Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement.
Prabhupāda: Yes. I am simply messenger. Mercy is of Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura and Śrīla Prabhupāda. Before your coming they predicted, that "Somebody will bring." Maybe that somebody I am. (chuckles) Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura predicted. So anyway, Kṛṣṇa has given us nice place. Stay here. So you producing food grains?
Jayapatākā: Oh, yes.
Prabhupāda: Sufficient? What about the fruit garden?
Jayapatākā: Fruit garden, there is a... Many banana trees are producing their bananas, some pomegranate...
Prabhupāda: You are getting banana, both unripe and ripe.
Jayapatākā: Now they are all unripe. But they'll be ripe, pakka.
Prabhupāda: No, there is a class...
Jayapatākā: Right, the kacha kola we have..., getting very small. We have mostly the ripe bananas.
Prabhupāda: And parwala?
Jayapatākā: Parwala, yes.
Prabhupāda: Where you are here producing parwala?
Jayapatākā: Parwala, oh, across the road we get.
Prabhupāda: How many... (break) One who is sincerely engaged in the service of the Lord, He gives him intelligence, "Now do this, do this." Simply we have to become sincere servant; then all dictation will come from within. Kṛṣṇa is there is everyone's heart. So work sincerely and everything will make progress. Who has painted this picture?
Acyutānanda: Puṣkara.
Prabhupāda: Ohh. Very nice. So Atreya-ṛṣi prabhu, you are feeling all right here?
Jayapatākā: You feeling all right here?
Atreya-ṛṣi: Yes.
Jayatīrtha: The atmosphere here is sublime, Śrīla Prabhupāda.
Prabhupāda: Now make sublime management. (laughter) That is required now. We are now extended. We must manage very nicely. Of course, management means sincere service. Then everything will be all right. Still, we have to deal with the material world. We have to become little proper.(?) So in Calcutta the one lock was open. There was nothing. You said it is in Calcutta? Is it all right? You don't require fan. Therefore I planned two sides open, cross ventilation.
Jayapatākā: Everything you plan is perfect.
Prabhupāda: No. I imagine. Kṛṣṇa makes it perfect. I think, "It would have been nice if it would have been like this," but Kṛṣṇa... Yei prasāde pūre sarva āśā. Long, long ago, when I was publishing Back to Godhead, one sheet, I was thinking that "What is this sheet? If it would have been like Illustrated Weekly, then it would have been nice." Now they are coming like that.
Jayapatākā: Now Illustrated Weekly is nothing compared to Back to Godhead.
Prabhupāda: No. (laughs) Better than Illustrated Weekly. I thought of getting some help from artist. For painting picture, I will dictate, and they will paint picture. Now Kṛṣṇa has got lots of artists. So depend on Kṛṣṇa. He can do everything.
