Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Dr. Sharma, let Prabhupāda give his idea. What was your idea, Śrīla Prabhupāda?

Prabhupāda: Yes, here garden must be here. We want flowers.

Dr. Sharma: Small, say.

Prabhupāda: Flower.

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: He wants gardens.

Prabhupāda: Not big tree.

Dr. Sharma: Just for flower bed. In the middle we'll keep the fountain, and all around the fountain...

Prabhupāda: Yes.

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Fountain in the middle, Prabhupāda?

Prabhupāda: Yes. Garden must be there. And all around, pathway. Very good.

Indian man (2): The center of this...

Prabhupāda: That will be very nice.

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Big fountain in the center, just like in your garden there's a big fountain.

Prabhupāda: That will be soothing also. All right.

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Let's go. (break)

Dr. Sharma: One āśrama teacher can supervise all.

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: The advantage of a big room is that one teacher can watch over many children at one time.

Prabhupāda: Very good.

Guṇārṇava: And also, the other side of the room, right along the whole wing, we have a veranda with doors on the other side so you can just keep going in and out, in and out.

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: But do the verandas connect? Does it go all the way there.

Guṇārṇava: Yes. It's all one.

Prabhupāda: So bank building is down?
