To surrender to Kṛṣṇa is not easy, but if one is jñānavān, he can do it. So make your country jñānavān, not these rascals, unnecessarily wasting time by opposing us. They are rascals.

Gopāla Kṛṣṇa: After meeting with Mr. Narayana tomorrow I feel that what I . . . what we first asked him for was some free advertisement, free advertising space that sometimes he gets. And he says we'll have to write to Madras, to the head office.

Prabhupāda: That you do . . . if we get free, you send.

Gopāla Kṛṣṇa: No, so if they just tell me that will take a week for them to get the answer, then should I wait for a week before starting the advertising campaign?

Prabhupāda: No, the free, that is consideration. Let them give freely. You take advantage.

Gopāla Kṛṣṇa: Combined. But not individually by city.

Rāmeśvara: But it's very close. Just in this city, Bombay, only twenty thousand papers' difference. In Delhi, bigger circulation than Times.
