Prabhupāda: No, you talk amongst yourselves everything. And you are all GBC. Tell, "This is not good." They should have kīrtana here. They should go to the city, kīrtana party. People should know that there is..., something is going to be done. Actually they want to enjoy that sea-bathing. They're going here and there. That is their business. That is not preaching; that is sense enjoyment. Pṛthivīte āche yata nagarādi grāma (CB Antya-khaṇḍa 4.126). That is the order of Caitanya Mahāprabhu. Why there should be discrimination, "Not here, not there"? He wants in every village and every town. How you can discriminate? Wherever possible, you should start.
Satsvarūpa: How is all the money for construction for this temple supposed to come? By the local preaching by Gaura-Govinda or...
Prabhupāda: Somehow or other, it must come. He has promised that he will collect half.
Satsvarūpa: That's right. And whatever he collects, you said you would...
Prabhupāda: Hmm?
Satsvarūpa: I heard that he was told whatever he collects you would match that or match half of it.
Prabhupāda: Hmm, hmm, hmm. Gargamuni may go and organize in Dacca. That will be a great service. He was speaking of going to Dacca. That will be greater service.
Satsvarūpa: I thought they were mostly going for the library work.
Prabhupāda: Whatever... No, he says there is possible, that Gauḍīya Maṭha. If in Pakistan, in Bangladesh, if he can organize one center, it will be great triumph.
Satsvarūpa: Dacca.
Prabhupāda: Kīrtana and prasāda distribution. This is our preaching mainly. And if they hear little philosophy, that is very good. Otherwise simply kīrtana and prasāda distribution is sufficient. Caitanya Mahāprabhu used to do that. He was not speaking philosophy to everyone. Kīrtana and prasāda distribution. So our men can perform very nice kīrtana, and if they come to take little prasādam, that is preaching. You have to maintain this standard, that kīrtana must go on and prasādam should be distributed.
Satsvarūpa: And take collection for that, to continue that.
Prabhupāda: Yes. By selling books, by contribution, somehow or other maintain. Everywhere.
Satsvarūpa: Our movement has changed in America in the past six years or so. Now devotees are not much seen on the streets chanting. So there's different feelings. Some say it is all right, because everyone is now distributing books more.
Prabhupāda: That is also nice.
Satsvarūpa: That's also a kind of kīrtana. But then the public, they hardly ever see us anymore. They used to say, "Oh, the saffron-robed people chanting on the streets."
Prabhupāda: But they come to the love feast.
Satsvarūpa: Yes.
Prabhupāda: That's all right.
Satsvarūpa: Yes. It's not necessary to emphasize that street chanting.
Prabhupāda: No. Sell books and invite them to come to temple for love feast. (pause)
Satsvarūpa: And there is all these men. It's still five more days before the ceremony. If they can do this..., programs locally.
Prabhupāda: Yes. They should go to the... Yes, locally. Kīrtana party. They should go in their bus and have in the city kīrtana party. Try to collect something. (end)
