Room Conversation , Rishikesh , 1977-05-08

Prabhupāda: If you have got the name, so why not reply to each one, with the letter...

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Oh, I see.

Prabhupāda: ...that "We are intending to make a huge planetarium. If you can help us?"

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Mentioning the Fifth Canto, Bhāgavatam?

Prabhupāda: Exactly to the description of Fifth Canto, we want.

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: How will we get their addresses?

Prabhupāda: Hmm? Or I can write to Mr. Chandali[?].

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: There's one thing we could do. I haven't seen the article, but he must have spoken at some institution or some meeting. We can write a letter to the secretary of that institution and meeting, telling them what we intend to do and to forward us a list of the people who attended and their addresses. And in that way we can... Should... Of course, I can do it, but do you want us to do it, or should Surabhi's office do it?

Prabhupāda: Surabhi?

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Yes.

Prabhupāda: Why?

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Well, he's already got letters like this, and he's receiving letters from people. He has... I don't mind doing it.

Prabhupāda: Surabhi... No. I shall deal it personally.

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: All right, Śrīla Prabhupāda.

Prabhupāda: Otherwise there is chance of being cheated.

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Yeah, okay. So then...

Prabhupāda: I know what are things, but still, they are specially specialists.

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Little confirmation...

Prabhupāda: Yes, that's all right. I know everything.

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: I think, more than anything, you want confirmation just in case... [break]

Prabhupāda: That is my request, that I may remain unconscious... [break] ... kapha-pitta-vāyu.

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Conscious, unconscious and...

Prabhupāda: Hmm. But never put me in hospital. You can refuse, that "This is our Guru Mahārāja's order." Chant Hare Kṛṣṇa. Bās. Let me die peacefully.

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: When Caitanya Mahāprabhu was unconscious, all that His disciples would do is they would chant in His ear.

Prabhupāda: That's all.

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: So we'll take that example. Please don't ever doubt that. We will never let them. It will be over my dead body.

Prabhupāda: This is my order. If I become unconscious... Otherwise... [Bengali]

Bhakti-caru: [Bengali] [end]
