<p>Prabhupāda: Yes, already. Even in small scale we can start from Boston.</p>
<p>Haṁsadūta: Just like one or two pages.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes. Never mind. Just like I began in that way. You have seen the...</p>
<p>Haṁsadūta: Yes, I saw the original Back to Godhead. A lot of your articles were commenting about current events.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes. The editorial board must be very intelligent how to talk about Back to Godhead with current politics. Giriraja, you can do that?</p>
<p>Giriraja: I could try.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Try. You just try it immediately. You take one newspaper and comment on the current news. Any one of you... Every one of you can do. And show me how you have given. Then you start immediately. We have got many things to do. We have Kṛṣṇa, and Kṛṣṇa is the bhoktāraṁ yajña-tapasāṁ sarva-loka maheśvaram ([[Vanisource:BG 5.29|BG 5.29]]). What these petty politicians and three acres of land? Their stage is three acres of land; our stage is the unlimited. That I have mentioned in the second volume of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. So what news they can publish? Three acres of land. We have got the innumerable universes. We can supply so much news, provided people are ready to read it. We have published so many books, they are not even able to read these books. So the other devotees, (laughs) they cannot ri..., come at five o'clock. That is the test. Yes. One who cannot rise early in the morning, he is not spiritually serious. That is test. Brāhma-muhūrta, this hour, one hour before sunrise, is very auspicious moment.</p>
<p>Haṁsadūta: I can tell everyone that wants a program to come at five o'clock.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Huh?</p>
<p>Haṁsadūta: If somebody wants a program, I can say "Come and see me at five o'clock." Because after they hear you and they have maṅgala-ārati, then they will be more thoughtful about our...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes, tell them.</p>
<p>Haṁsadūta: I think that's a good idea.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: You can say now, "If anyone wants to see us, please come at five o'clock, early in the morning." Then I shall see how much serious he is. Now I have decided to go to Delhi. Even Gurudāsa suggests rightly. All of us, we should go to Delhi.</p>
<p>Yamunā: It might be difficult to make arrangements, Guru Mahārāja. The place where Gurudāsa is presently staying is not equipped for ten people at present. We'll have to arrange.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No, we can arrange in the Birla's house. He has a nice dharmaśāla. You know Birla's house?</p>
<p>Yamunā: Yes. We were invited to stay there for ten days.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: So that's all right. So, who invited?</p>
<p>Devotee (3): One of the people connected with the temple has associated with us in Delhi and (indistinct) has invited us.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: So first of all take information from the Pujari(?) in which train they have booked our seats for Delhi, and you write immediately one letter to Dhruva in Bombay and Tamal Kṛṣṇa also, that Dhruva may instruct the Delhi Birla's dharmaśāla to accommodate us immediately. So their dharmaśāla. It is Birla's dharmaśāla. First of all we have to see how they have made our seats.</p>
<p>Revatīnandana: So the residential place belongs to Mrs. Birla?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No, it is a temple, very big temple.</p>
