<span class="link">[[Vanisource:Room Conversation -- September 11, 1976, Vrndavana|Room Conversation -- September 11, 1976, Vrndavana]]: </span><div class="text"><p style="display: inline;">Saurabha: And on the opening day the Deities will be on the altar or they will be in front when they're bathed? When the bathing is taking place in Bombay for the opening...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: That the priest will arrange who will come from...</p>
<p>Saurabha: Yes. But they will be on the altar or they will be in front?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No. In the front they are left.</p>
<p>Saurabha: So not on the altar.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No. But if it is risky, you should not do. Big Deity, we have got big Deity, huh?</p>
<p>Harikeśa: Yes, very heavy. They are very heavy, Rādhā-Rāsabihārī.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: What they do in Hyderabad?</p>
<p>Harikeśa: Hyderabad the Deity was already installed. There was no need for bathing so they didn't do it.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Other Deities?</p>
<p>Dhanañjaya: Here, just like here for the opening on pratiṣṭhā.</p>
<p>Harikeśa: Yes, they bathed the small Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Anyway, we should not take risk at any rate.</p>
<p>Harikeśa: Rādhā-Rāsabihārī, also, when They came from Akash-Ganga there was a disturbance with Them also. Rādhā has a tendency to crack on the arm. Her left arm cracks.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Where?</p>
<p>Harikeśa: Slightly. There was a very weak, it was very weak. Very weak. I remember 'cause they had to move three times. I was there all the times when They were moved.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: In Bombay.</p>
<p>Harikeśa: In Bombay. And every time they were very upset because of this left arm.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: This risk should not be taken at any gain. Never mind Hari-bhakti-vilāsa, this-vilāsa—no risk. You must always know. No risk. That is the first point. Then we consult Hari-bhakti-vilāsa. Nobody can give reference to Hari-bhakti-vilāsa at risk. No. Not at all. Do? Anything more?</p>
<p>Dhanañjaya: Can I ask one question? You were mentioning that you wanted to start local industries, casting Deities.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes, we can purchase... We can...</p>
<p>Dhanañjaya: Purchase raw materials?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: So, everything is all right now?</p>
<p>Dhanañjaya: So I was wondering...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Can you come, there... (break) There are, what is called, Deity makers here?</p>
<p>Dhanañjaya: Well, most of the Deities, they are cast in Aligarh.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Aligarh? Oh.</p>
<p>Dhanañjaya: Yes. Then they're brought here and there is, craftsmen, they finish. They polish then they add...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: So who is from Aligarh? You go to we have got a best friend in Aligarh.</p>
