Akṣayānanda: I heard that if you pass stool more than once a day you become a bhogī? You are called a bhogī?

Prabhupāda: Yes.

Aksayānanda: Does that mean a serious devotee should only pass stool once a day?

Prabhupāda: Don't artificially do that. (laughter) First of all become yogī, then do it.

Akṣayānanda: Yes. Of course, it can only be done by Kṛṣṇa's mercy, but one should at least try for that.

Prabhupāda: (aside:) Hare Kṛṣṇa. Jaya. Don't try for passing stool once. (laughter) That does not make you a yogī.

Akṣayānanda: Well, that's another thing.
