Mr. Wadell: ...Well, we profess up there, which not all believe, but some do, and they must be given their chance. (laughs)
Prabhupāda: Oh, yes, that is nice.
Mr. Wadell: Will you please excuse me at this moment. I would very much like to come back and pursue this.
Prabhupāda: Yes, you come often. Yes, you are welcome. Yes.
Mr. Wadell: If you feel it is of any interest or value to you.
Prabhupāda: Oh yes, yes, After 4 o'clock you can come. You are welcome.
Śyāmasundara: You can come any night after 4 pm.
Mr. Wadell: Yes, well, we have a very busy week, because, as I say, we are correcting papers, we are ending our term.
Prabhupāda: Oh, yes, you must be busy.
Mr. Wadell: But what we are talking about is something which doesn't change from today or tomorrow or yesterday. So when these things have been done, perhaps next week, I will come down.
Prabhupāda: Oh, yes, you are welcome. I want that responsible persons like you should try to understand the scientific value of this movement. It is not a sentimental movement. It is based on philosophy, science, authority.
Mr. Wadell: Well, it's on this question of authority, in a sense, that we would have the greatest difficulty. But another time, please.
Prabhupāda: Well, every religion is authority. That's a fact.
Mr. Wadell: It is, yes. That's true. But every individual is free and must find for themselves.
Prabhupāda: No, we, we... Our proposition is, our proposition is that sa vai puṁsāṁ paro dharmo yato bhaktir adhokṣaje (SB 1.2.6). "That is first-class religion which teaches the followers how to love God." This is our proposal.
Mr. Wadell: Well, we shall see. We have a lot to... (laughs) It is quite possible that I too have been sent.
Prabhupāda: Yes. Give him some prasāda. Just wait little. Take prasādam. Our only fighting is against atheism, godlessness. This is our main fight.
Mr. Wadell: I agree.
Prabhupāda: Yes. People say, "There is no God, God is dead. This is all humbug." And so many there are, atheistic proposals. We are giving fight against this atheism.
Mr. Wadell: Will you excuse me. I must go.
Pradyumna: He's just bringing little...
Mukunda: We are just bringing you a little prasādam.
Mr. Wadell: Oh, no, no, I must. I have my boys. They wait for me and I must be with them. (laughter)
Prabhupāda: There is some prasādam.
Śyāmasundara: He is teacher just down the road in the school.
Prabhupāda: You take little this. Yes. Just take little.
Mr. Wadell: May I take just.
Prabhupāda: Just little. I am not giving you much. (lots of laughter)
Mr. Wadell: Oh, it's very good. Just a little.
Prabhupāda: It is very good, tasteful.
Mr. Wadell: Thank you.
Prabhupāda: All right.
