Then accept program. [break] ...distribution of prasāda, then we can go everywhere, whole day program, kīrtana and distribution. So that is meant. And simply dry philosophy? What people will understand?
Devotee: You cannot buy gold. Government has prohibited.
Prabhupāda: Because you are rascal, your government is rascal-democracy. What is the government? Government means your replica. So why do you blame the government? You are fools, rascals; you send other fools and rascals and suffer consequence. [break] ...tea, growing tobacco, growing jute, and no grains. And grain for the animal, so that animal, as soon as it becomes fatty, send it to the slaughterhouse, and then finish business. Smoke, eat meat, drink, and be happy. So much land, but it is producing tobacco, which we are prohibiting, "No smoking." [break] Vegetable is utilized. (Hindi) These crops. (Hindi) [break] ...nityānāṁ cetanaś cetanānām.
Indian man: (Hindi) ...effulgence.
Prabhupāda: Yes. Prabhā. Yasya prabhā prabhavato jagad-aṇḍa-koṭi [Bs. 5.40].
Indian man: What is meant, "halo" and "effulgence"? That word meaning, "halo"? Prabhā?
Prabhupāda: Halo is ksatta(?). Practically the same meaning. [break] ...field is green and this field is not green? If you take care every field will be green. [break] ...prasādam to the audience.
Devotee: Sumptuous.
Prabhupāda: Yes.
Devotee: Full plate.
Prabhupāda: Then accept program. [break] ...distribution of prasāda, then we can go everywhere, whole day program, kīrtana and distribution. So that is meant. And simply dry philosophy? What people will understand? (Hindi) (end)Correspondence

I have shown your essay to Dr. Svarupa Damodara and he has read it. He is returning soon to California, and you can see him and discuss how to improve it. You should write more because it is very important subject matter.
Side by side to your writing you should also chant regularly Hare Krsna.Page Title: | Dry philosophy |
