Prabhupada: One Indian, a very learned scholar in Chandigarh, he has given very good certificate. What is that?
Satsvarupa: He said that "There have been many commentaries on the Bhagavad-gita, including Ramanuja, Madhva and Sankara, and then," he said, "Tilak and Gandhi, but of all of them the commentary by A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami is the greatest commentary." Punjab University. Then he said later that "In this suffering mankind, God has sent His Holiness A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami."
Tamala Krsna: He said greater than the other acaryas.
Satsvarupa: Yes. Greater than Ramanuja and Madhva.
Tamala Krsna: And he's a big man.
Prabhupada: He is very big man. Respected. Very good scholar also. He goes outside for lecturing.
Tamala Krsna: Practically all the devotees feel your presence through these books.
Prabhupada: Yes.
Tamala Krsna: Their life is sustained with these books -- these books and chanting and the Deity worship -- sustaining all the devotees in the world and bringing new devotees. Everyone we ask who joins this movement, "Before you joined, did you get a book?" "Yes." In every case I have seen that the first thing was the book.
Prabhupada: Hmm.
Tamala Krsna: Then, after reading, they became convinced, and then they joined.
Prabhupada: So let us do our duty. Our attempt Krsna will see. That gentleman has written, "Swami Bhaktivedanta will be remembered for centuries, making history." Is not that?
Satsvarupa: "Unsurpassed," this . . . Not just remembered; it will be unsurpassed.
Prabhupada: And many foreign scholars also, they have. In France . . . In France one professor has said, "The . . ."
Satsvarupa: Chenique?
Prabhupada: ". . . Aurobindo and Dr. Radhakrishnan, they have compromised with the Western idea, but here is the real tradition of India." Actually that's a fact. All of them, they have tried to make a hodgepodge. And from the beginning my idea was I shall present as it is. That's all. Therefore I gave this name, "As It Is." Caitanya Mahaprabhu said, yare dekha tare kaha 'krsna'-upadesa (CC Madhya 7.128). Why shall I manufacture idea? Present this as it is. All right.
Tamala Krsna: All right, Prabhupada.
Prabhupada: Let us do our duty. (devotees offer obeisances) (break) So at any cost, I am still dictating. I'll go on dictating so long I live. That's all. But this is very nice program, our farm program. Practical. So if possible, Paramananda may come and teach them.
Tamala Krsna: Yes. This is the most successful farm at least in our society from the production point of view.
Prabhupada: Yes. No, I saw personally. He is working very hard, and everyone is happy.
Tamala Krsna: Yeah, everyone is happy.
Prabhupada: You were there?
Hari-sauri: Yes.
Prabhupada: It is very nice. I always remember. Yes.
Tamala Krsna: Jaya Prabhupada.
Prabhupada: Jaya.
