Gopāla Kṛṣṇa: At the present moment he's okay; he's quiet. Prabhupāda: No, we should beat them. If somebody, ātatāyī . . . "You unnecessarily attack me, I must first kill you. That is my duty." Just like you have done here, Setterji: "I'll bring my revolver." So that is argumentum baculum. Here they wanted to put us into trouble, and he was in great trouble. So he came, he stood: "All right, come on. We shall fight. Bring my revolver." He did that. So we have to do like that. Why shall I tolerate unnecessary injustice? Take that spirit. And in meantime, apply. That is the solution. Why shall I spend for them? And unless they arrange for the sewer lines, we're not going to pay tax. Gopāla Kṛṣṇa: No, that's our position.

Gopāla Kṛṣṇa: We're not paying tax. We are fighting it in the court.

Prabhupāda: So in this way we have to fight. We should not be afraid for these rascals. Why you should be afraid? If they take to guṇḍā-ism, we shall engage fifty guṇḍās, "Come on. Let us see." We have to maintain that spirit. Anaye yei kare prabhu anaye yei sahe. The Rabindranath Tagore's one poetry, "One who does wrong and suffers wrong, he is wrong." One should not do anything wrong; one should not suffer anything wrong. That is human. If somebody does harm to me, wrong to me, I cannot suffer it. I shall not do any harm to anyone. That's all right. But if you want to give me suffering, I must fight you. Why shall I suffer it? That is kṣatriya spirit. Yuddhe cāpy apalayanam ([[Vanisource:BG 18.43 (1972)|BG 18.43]]). "If you are challenging, 'All right, come on,' I accept this challenge." We have to do like that. Now, this bāniyā spirit . . . our Bhagatji, he purchased that land, and he's afraid of him. What is this? Bāniyā spirit. But you are kṣatriya.

Gopāla Kṛṣṇa: (laughs) He has to . . . I'm not there all the time. They come to his house to . . .

Prabhupāda: No, you argue with weapon. Beat them. We shall see. Go to the police that, "This is nonsense."

Gopāla Kṛṣṇa: Yeah, we've done that.

Prabhupāda: So how is that?

Gopāla Kṛṣṇa: At the present moment he's okay; he's quiet.

Prabhupāda: No, we should beat them. If somebody, ātatāyī . . . "You unnecessarily attack me, I must first kill you. That is my duty." Just like you have done here, Setterji: "I'll bring my revolver." So that is argumentum baculum. Here they wanted to put us into trouble, and he was in great trouble. So he came, he stood: "All right, come on. We shall fight. Bring my revolver." He did that. So we have to do like that. Why shall I tolerate unnecessary injustice? Take that spirit. And in meantime, apply. That is the solution. Why shall I spend for them? And unless they arrange for the sewer lines, we're not going to pay tax.

Gopāla Kṛṣṇa: No, that's our position.

Prabhupāda: Let us go on, one court after another, one court after . . . if there is fight, we must be prepared to fight . . . (indistinct) . . . if required, take Setterji. He'll help.

Setterji: Girirāja . . . (indistinct)

Girirāja: He's very heroic. He was very heroic.

Prabhupāda: Yes. He is kṣatriya. Aap log toh kshariya? kshatri? (Aren't you people kṣatriya? Kṣatri?) You take him.

Gopāla Kṛṣṇa: Okay.

Setterji: In the Pakistan time, I fight forty, fifty men.

Prabhupāda: Yes. That is kṣatriya spirit. If you want to fight . . .

Setterji: Yes, always.

Prabhupāda: You killed? (laughter)

Setterji: Yes! So many times. So many times.
