<span class="link">[[Vanisource:Press Conference -- July 16, 1975, San Francisco|Press Conference -- July 16, 1975, San Francisco]]: </span><div class="text"><p style="display: inline;">Bhaktadāsa: Śrīla Prabhupāda, one press man wanted to know what is this Rathayātrā festival? Why is it going on over here in the western world?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Well, that is the mistake. If God is the proprietor of everything, He is also proprietor of the western world. Is there any dispute? If we say, "God is the proprietor of the western world," what is the wrong there? Is there anything wrong? Who will answer this.</p>
<p>Jayatīrtha: Nothing wrong.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: So if the western world has forgotten God and He comes to remind him, where is the wrong?</p>
<p>Reporter (3): Is that the significance, then, of the festival, to remind people of God?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes, yes. This is the significance. Jagannātha. Jagannātha. Jagat means the whole universe, and natha means the lord or the proprietor.</p>
<p>Reporter (3): What is the purpose of the large carts and other things you use?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Large car mean God is very great, He requires very great car. (laughter) Why should He go in a small car? (laughter)</p>
