Indian man: Have seen the new light.
Prabhupāda: Yes. They're opposing me very vigorously in America.
Indian man: And that is a good sign.
Prabhupāda: Yes. That is our victory, when there is opposition, and that is our victory. In spite of opposition, we are selling our books in large quantity. Yes. Large quantity. What is the one week sale that? Eighteen lakhs or something like...
Girirāja: In one week, the books, total of books, was seven lakhs books in one week.
Indian man: In one week? That would be hundred thousand dollars.
Prabhupāda: No, no. More than. Eh? Seven lakhs?
Guest (11) (Indian man): But mostly they are in America. Also in that number in Japan?
Prabhupāda: No, America. And opposition is also in America. No, Europe and America, they are taking.
Guest (10): Opposition is natural. Because you are converting their churches into temples.
Prabhupāda: No, there are many... First thing is that my students are advised, "No illicit sex, no meat-eating, no intoxication up to the point of smoking cigarette and drinking tea, and no gambling." But this is their life. How they can give up this? That is... It is a shock. Therefore they say, "brainwashing," that "How a gentleman can give up all these things?" Many... No many. A few of my students, they left. They said that "Swamiji is denying the primary necessities of life." They left. They could not tolerate even. So I do not make any compromise. That you want to become my student you have to give up these things. So the responsible parents, they are appreciating that "My son is now purified."
