Interviewer (5): Do you think they are taking to it because it is novel?
Prabhupāda: Huh? No, many novel things go from here, but they are sticking to it. They are now seriously taking to it. They understand that this is a great science and we are publishing books. We have already published eighty-four books like that. Eighty-four of four hundred pages. And you'll be surprised that throughout the whole world we are selling books about sixty thousand dollars a day. That means six lakhs of rupees. That is the basic income for our expenditure, 102 centers all over the world.
Interviewer (3): A central minister the Parliament recently said that he will conduct a probe to see if there was anything fishy in this...
Prabhupāda: Therefore I am bringing before you, before probing, you try to understand what is our income. We are selling these books six lakhs rupees daily, and we are spending it fifty percent for reprinting the books and fifty percent for expanding temples all over the world. This is our activities. Now you probe it or understand it.
Interviewer (3): This is the only source of revenue for the society?
Prabhupāda: Yes.
Interviewer (4): Fifty percent books and for temples fifty percent?
Prabhupāda: Fifty percent for expanding temples and fifty percent for reprinting books.
Interviewer (4): Do you have any other source, like donations or something like that for your movement?
Prabhupāda: Very small. Mostly we have got a few cases of donation of land and house. Not very large sum or money, never.
Interviewer (4): But I thought Henry Ford has given some... I thought the Ford family has given some huge donation.
Prabhupāda: Ford, he has given us two, three houses, not donation. But we have purchased two, three houses by the money of Mr. Ford, Alfred Ford, he's my disciple.
Interviewer (4): Some members the Parliament says, the movement is in some anti-Indian activities. What do you...?
Prabhupāda: So you are intelligent man, you see what is that anti-Indian. We are spreading Indian culture, and this is anti-Indian. How foolish they are. Just see. We are spreading Bhagavad-gītā as it is, and it is anti-Indian. Do you think like that?
Interviewer (5): What if somebody is using this as a cover-up?
Prabhupāda: Huh? But if you have no eyes to see inside, you see the cover only. What can I do? (laughter) If you are so blind, what can I do?
Interviewer (5): What has the (indistinct) doing about solving world problems...
Prabhupāda: Every problem can be solved by Bhagavad-gītā. Every problem can be solved by Bhagavad-gītā. You put any problem and there is answer.
