Prabhupāda: And the pipes regularly, as they do in dairy farm. When it is not working, only hot water is passing through the pipes to keep them clean. And one cow, the milk bag is so big, he gives 102 pounds daily. Similarly, in France also we have got farm. New Orleans, Philadelphia, West Virginia. We have got four or five.
Kartikeya Mahadevia: San Diego, near Los Angeles.
Prabhupāda: Yes. And all of them are successful. This time I installed Kṛṣṇa-Balarāma Deity in France.
Kartikeya Mahadevia: Paris, near Paris.
Prabhupāda: Yes. Near Orleans.
Kartikeya Mahadevia: I am thinking of going again on a world tour for my business, because we want to start some export business. So I'll start with Iran, then some other countries in Middle East, then Europe, America, Australia, New Zealand, Fiji, Mauritius and Seychelles. I've got friends all over the places, so they will come here, and we have some export business of cloth . . .
Prabhupāda: Mauritius is not developed. Fiji is good. Mauritius a poor country. Fiji well-to-do, more business, many Gujaratis. Mostly Gujaratis.
Kartikeya Mahadevia: I've got somebody in New Zealand also. They are selling for last four years.
Prabhupāda: Fiji and New Zealand . . .
Kartikeya Mahadevia: Are very prosperous.
Prabhupāda: Yes. They have got good dealings, purchase and selling.
Kartikeya Mahadevia: Did you meet Mr. Patel met you in Tehran? Bokumi Patel? One Indian is settled there, Patel.
Prabhupāda: Yes.
Kartikeya Mahadevia: Bokumi. They are very good friends of mine. So I am going to him only. Maitreya Muni is also there, he is also there.
Prabhupāda: Oh, yes.
Kartikeya Mahadevia: He is a very nice man.
Prabhupāda: She came to see me twice, Mrs. Patel. She is very nice . . .
Kartikeya Mahadevia: Very devoted. Her father is my father's friend, Mr. Gigubhai Pota. He was chairman of the Gold Control Board in India. Handlooms are working very nicely. That side of textile, which are made by hand, they are prospering like anything because . . .
Prabhupāda: They have to remain naked.
Kartikeya Mahadevia: No, khādi is available, so no problem.
Prabhupāda: Available is everything. If you pay, everything is available. Therefore they say: "If you pay, I can supply you tiger's blood." If you pay, everything is available. People have lost completely interest in spiritual life. They have lost completely.
Kartikeya Mahadevia: But in the new generation we think our children are more interested in religion or the bhakti than the parents. That is a new development. People who are, oh, say 25 or 15, they are not. But the children who are below ten or . . . (break)
Prabhupāda: . . . parents should encourage. They have no interest even.
Kartikeya Mahadevia: At the school level, something can be done. Suppose we . . .
Prabhupāda: The authorities will not allow. School authorities, if you say that you want hold . . . (indistinct) . . . they will not. Mandāḥ sumanda-matayo manda-bhāgyā hy upadrutāḥ (SB 1.1.10). This is Kali-yuga. All bad. And even one is interested, he is interested in something bogus. Sumanda-matayaḥ. They have manufactured a style of religious principle. Mandāḥ sumanda-matayo manda-bhāgyāḥ. And all unfortunate.
Kartikeya Mahadevia: Yesterday I met one Life Member who belongs to a very reputed family in Bombay who has donated about fifteen acres of land to Swami Cinmayananda on the Vihar Lake side. Now he has become our patron member yesterday.
Prabhupāda: Vihar Lake?
Kartikeya Mahadevia: Vihar Lake. I think we have gone to see that big temple near Powai. So this family has got about thirty, forty acres of land on the Powai side. Very beautiful site.
Prabhupāda: . . . that to know God there is no necessity of education. (break)
Kartikeya Mahadevia: No, he has got nothing. He cannot tell. Any children ask "What is this?" he will not be able to tell because he's not reading anything.
Prabhupāda: So you don't train, how they will learn?
Kartikeya Mahadevia: No, he himself is not trained, so he cannot give any answer to the children. So I told him, "At least you get their ISKCON books. You can read now before the children can read." So he immediately signed up. He immediately paid 2222 rupees by check, and he agreed, "I'll read Bhagavad-gītā and everything."
Prabhupāda: We don't require much money also. We require men first. Money will come. Money is coming. I started this business forty . . .
Kartikeya Mahadevia: Forty rupees.
Prabhupāda: So there is no scarcity of money. Now our daily collection is six lakhs of rupees throughout the whole world.
Kartikeya Mahadevia: Per day.
Prabhupāda: Per day. So there is no scarcity of money. A business started with forty rupees bringing six lakhs daily, it is not ordinary business.
Kartikeya Mahadevia: No, extraordinary. Most extraordinary. Everybody wondering that only, how it has been done.
Prabhupāda: Kṛṣṇa is giving. I never thought my books will be sold as much. I never . . . neither in the history of human society religious books sell six lakhs of rupees daily.
