Initiation Ceremony -- Los Angeles, December 25, 1973:

Karandhara: Prabhupāda, do you want to give the names to the new devotees before the kīrtana, and after the kīrtana go on the walk?

Prabhupāda: The name is not given?

Karandhara: No. I have the beads.

Prabhupāda: So without name, how can we give?

Karandhara: No, I have the names. Do you want to give them now?

Prabhupāda: Oh. Yes. We can give. So come on. No, no, mantra, one mantra. That mantra. Chant mantra, then I will give the names. (break) ...such atmosphere. So we have to maintain this.

Karandhara: Jesus. (devotee comes up) (all spiritual names first told by Karandhara to Prabhupāda)

Prabhupāda: Virāha. Virāha dāsa. I am not asking individually about the four principles. I suppose you know this. But just I was explaining sat and asat. These two things are side by side. Just like there is darkness and there is light, you can see merging in the sunlight. You'll see, one side is light, and one side is dark. Similarly, sat and asat, they are existing side by side. If you don't remain this side, then you come to this side. So it is my choice. So this Hare Kṛṣṇa is the bright side, and the other things, material activities and sinful activities, meat-eating, intoxication, gambling, illicit sex, the dark side. So it is your choice. If you remain the bright side, then your progress is certain, and if you fall down again on the dark side, that is your misfortune. So you should always remember that. Come on.
