Cāṇakya Paṇḍita says, ko 'tha putreṇa jātena yo na vidyā na bhaktimān: "What is the use of such son who is neither devotee nor learned?" Kāṇena cakṣuṣā kiṁ cakṣuḥ pīḍaiva kevalam: "What is the use of blind eyes? It is simply troublesome."

Prabhupāda: For feeding. Feeding. Give them sumptuous food so that they may become healthy, nice food. (laughter) Yes. That is also wanted. Children, they must eat sufficiently. Not overeat. Even overeat, that is not wrong for children. And that will be exercise, by going to Yamunā and coming. That will be bodily exercise. This is nice. Do that. Strictly follow. There is no scarcity of space there. Yes. Vṛndāvana is holy place. And there is no government interference, so increase it. Bring more student from all over the world. Then it will be unique. And you also make scheme to get Indian children from aristocratic family. Śucīnāṁ śrīmatāṁ gehe yoga-bhraṣṭo sañjāyate ([[Vanisource:BG 6.41 (1972)|BG 6.41]]). Those who are born in high-class, rich family or brāhmaṇa family, they are not ordinary. But there is no brāhmaṇa family now. So at least the richer section, they can be induced to send their boys to learn Sanskrit and English and Bhagavad-bhakti. They can do business, and whatever they like, they can do later on. But these things, they should be . . . Father, mother should be careful. (Hindi conversation with Bhagatjī) . . .just attract all good family, children. (Hindi) . . . working, they will have to live, they cannot. They cannot become paṇḍita or spiritually advanced men. They have to work. But if the richer section, they get their sons good character, good devotee . . . Cāṇakya Paṇḍita says, ko 'tha putreṇa jātena yo na vidyā na bhaktimān: "What is the use of such son who is neither devotee nor learned?" Kāṇena cakṣuṣā kiṁ cakṣuḥ pīḍaiva kevalam: "What is the use of blind eyes? It is simply troublesome." So if the aristocratic family, they do not give education in spiritual line, they'll become all hippies, loafer, and drinking and wasting father's money. They should be informed. (Hindi) (break) I think there must be three, four classes.

Bhagatjī: Three, four classes afterwards, but at present?

Prabhupāda: Ah.

Bhagatjī: If students are in great number, then we shall introduce; otherwise . . .

Prabhupāda: Classes to be arranged according to the number of student increases. That's all. That shall be . . .

Jagadīśa: Now there are two classes.

Prabhupāda: Eh?

Jagadīśa: There are two classes according to age.

Prabhupāda: Kata(?) according to time and circumstance.

Bhagatjī: In my opinion, Prabhupāda, there should be one period for Hindi classes.

Prabhupāda: That's very nice.

Bhagatjī: Forty minutes, forty-five minutes

Prabhupāda: Oh, yes, very good. That is essential. If the Indian students come, they will require some vernacular like that.

Bhagatjī: Hindi class there should be. In Vṛndāvana they will . . .

Prabhupāda: Oh, yes. Do that, Hindi.

Bhagatjī: In Māyāpur there should be Bengali class. And Hindi and Bengali, two language are very close.

Prabhupāda: Yes. Not any other language. Hindi is essential—must be compulsory, Hindi. That is State language.

Jagadīśa: For the Western children also?

Prabhupāda: Oh, yes. Everyone.
