Upendra: . . . at least half of the energy that you have to preach.
Prabhupāda: Hmm?
Upendra: We may develop at least maybe half of your energy to continuously preach someday?
Prabhupāda: Continuously?
Śyāmasundara: He says that someday he hopes that the devotees, your disciples, may acquire half of the energy that you have for preaching.
Prabhupāda: Why not full, or double? You may have doubled.
Upendra: It's inconceivable.
Prabhupāda: Just like my Guru Mahārāja did not travel all over the world, so I have got double energy than him. So you must triple energy, four times energy than me. Then actually disciple. My Godbrothers are envious because they could not do. They could not do even half of Guru Mahārāja's work, and I am doing ten times. So therefore they are envious. So if an ordinary man like me can do ten times, you are Americans (laughs) twenty times, then you are successful.
Devotee (1): If we can do twenty times, it's only because you gave us the energy.
Prabhupāda: Yes. My blessings are there, you do it, try. Just like Guru Mahārāja gave blessings to everyone, but if they do not try, if they remain Kuñja Babu, then let him remain Kuñja Babu. What can be done? If he's satisfied only one building in Māyāpur and two buildings in Vṛndāvana, that is his only ambition. The ambition is poor.
Śyāmasundara: Just like Tuṣṭa Kṛṣṇa and his wife, they hitchhiked all the way to Australia.
Prabhupāda: Just see.
Pradyumna: They landed by ship in northern Australia, Perth, where our plane first landed that night.
Prabhupāda: He is very energetic.
Śyāmasundara: And they hitchhiked across Australia, 1,500 miles through the desert.
Prabhupāda: Just see.
Śyāmasundara: He said sometimes a car would not come by for many hours, and they would be standing in the hot sun, no trees, anything.
Prabhupāda: Oh, desert, big desert.
Śyāmasundara: A huge desert they practically made their way across.
Prabhupāda: Just see.
