I heard from our, or I read in the invitation that this center is not only a center as such but something more. It should also be an āśrama and also a forest university in the tradition of the ancient times.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes.</p>
<p>Prof. Pater Porsch: A kind of a university also.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Oh, yes. Yes.</p>
<p>Prof. Pater Porsch: Like Indian and allied sciences, Vedic sciences.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: My idea is that all our centers should be self-supported. We do not like that idea that for your support you have to go 100 miles to get your bread. That is a very dangerous drawback. You produce your food locally and then support yourself. The main problem is what to eat, where to sleep. So we get some place and support ourself by producing our own food. We have already begun in New Vrindaban, New..., West Virginia, Virginia, and similarly in other centers, we are producing our food, grains, vegetables, fruits and milk. That is sufficient. But we don't kill any animals. That we don't do.</p>
<p>Prof. Pater Porsch: But will this center also be a place of learning for Sanskrit studies and allied topics?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Oh, yes. We are educating our children in Dallas. We have got very good institution, Sanskrit and English, and they are reading these books. That is sufficient. If they read these books, all different department of knowledge will be acquired. Yasmin vijñāte sarvam idaṁ vijñātaṁ bhavati. Yes. You can play a little record. Last night...</p>
<p>Haṁsadūta: This morning's recording?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes.</p>
<p>Prof. Pater Porsch: May I please ask, are there is also room for physical yoga exercises while chanting of the God's names?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes, but we are exercising by dancing.</p>
<p>Prof. Pater Porsch: Yes, of course. (tape of Prabhupāda singing is played)</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Make little louder. (tape plays for about five minutes of Prabhupāda singing prayers to the six Gosvāmīs) What are these pictures?</p>
<p>Haṁsadūta: These are pictures of our society's activities in the temples.</p>
<p>Prof. Pater Porsch: Very constructive and very... So much success in a relative very short time, if you began in 1966.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: '67.</p>
<p>Prof. Pater Porsch: And during the Bangladesh crisis you also...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes, anyone came; we feed. That much... There were many refugees, so we fed them.</p>
<p>Prof. Pater Porsch: But that automatically answers the question of this gentlemen also, the body in the service of other people, you see...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No, we give food. Anyone come and take food. Here also. There is no question of Bangladesh. Let anyone come and take food. In our Māyāpur center we especially give food distribution on Saturday and Sunday. At least five thousand people come. So all humanitarian work is included.</p>
<p>Lady: Thank you very much.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Hare Kṛṣṇa. Thank you. (some guests leave) So now we have come to Germany. You cooperate and make it a great success for the general benefit of the whole humanity. We have got arts, music, literature, culture, food, everything.</p>
<p>Prof. Pater Porsch: I think it will also help to quite a considerable extent for the removing of prejudices and for a better understanding of...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No, this is the only platform where all people, all religion, all culture, can unite. This is the only place, Kṛṣṇa consciousness. We practically see how they are becoming successful. In Africa also, within the villages they are responding. (break) ...distinction.</p>
<p>Devotee: (showing Śrīla Prabhupāda's books) This is Spanish, Chinese.</p>
<p>Prof. Pater Porsch: (indistinct) Chinese.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Japanese also. And Hindi.</p>
<p>Devotee: Italian, French. Hindi also we have. Bengali, Gujarati.</p>
<p>Prof. Pater Porsch: But I also noticed on the faces of the devotees downstairs that many or several faces were, we would say in the West, sublimated, that the facial features showed that a certain form of sublimation had taken place. (German)</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Even children are learning how to dance, how to offer obeisances, how to chant, how to clap. They are also learning, small children.</p>
<p>Prof. Pater Porsch: And I think that it comes at the right time so that people may not be misled into juvenile delinquency, all of those "easy riders" and motorcycles and adolescent criminality. They find creative outlets for their energies also as a by-product.</p>
