Mahāṁsa: Pious people, they see that actually they are not giving any spiritual benefit by converting them into Christianity. So they are very against this. They want some original Vedic school, *gurukula *schools.

Prabhupāda: Yes. So that is, we have done already. Satsvarūpa has got practical experience. He can give you advice. He started this gurukula. Practically this gurukula I suggested, but he began. Yes. So you can take practical advice from him. [break]

Mahāṁsa: I don’t think we can start building until we finish this temple.

Prabhupāda: No, you can start in a cottage.

Mahāṁsa: Yes, small way.

Prabhupāda: Yes.

Mahāṁsa: And then develop.

Prabhupāda: Building is not very important. Work is important. Activity is important. I started my movement not with buildings, but real activity. So building is opulence. But we can do without opulence. You can start anything, even underneath a tree. There is no difficulty. [break] They will allow our men?

Mahāṁsa: I went. They did not ask any questions.

Prabhupāda: No, there is no question of asking, but is there any hint from their side?

Mahāṁsa: I have not heard that they, in Tirumala, they refuse foreigners.

Prabhupāda: Ah,

Mahāṁsa: I have not heard that they have refused I have never heard any incident.

Prabhupāda: T hat’s all right. [japa] [break] So far reporters, they agreed that others have no right to…

Mahāṁsa: Spread.

Prabhupāda: No, to comment on this. [end]
