<p>Śyāmasundara: Yes. If we built the most magnificent temple and center here, which was full of spiritual life, day and night hundreds of devotees would be there having kīrtana, and all the devotees of Vṛndāvana would come. They're simply astounded by our kīrtana when they come to our house.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: (Hindi)</p>
<p>Śyāmasundara: What's this? This is another temple? Imlitala?</p>
<p>Devotee(2): Imlitala.</p>

<p>Hari-śauri: I don't think that's too difficult. You're the best friend for everyone.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No, but after all, they are children. How they can take it as it is? So they are fortunate children, and their parents and everyone should take care of them. A very difficult age.</p>
<p>Hari-śauri: You always said they're our asset for the future.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: If they can be trained up, they can become very good preacher, each one of them. And they can make hundreds of devotees. In this way we can expand. Are you realizing that there is no civilization? Actually civilization we are introducing. Except Aryan civilization, Vedic civilization, there is no civilization—animal society. What do you think? Are you convinced about it?</p>
<p>Harikeśa: Oh, yes, every time I walk out the door I'm convinced. And when you come back to the temple, it's marvelous, the spiritual world. No matter what going on, may be bad, may be good, doesn't matter. It's very relieving.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Civilization means to push the man forward for perfection. That is civilization.</p>

<p>Gargamuni: In one room you had many corners for your different projects. (chuckles)</p>
<p>Rāmeśvara: But if you have hundreds and hundreds of devotees in one center, then you have to be concerned with their spiritual life, how they are engaged, how they're supported.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes. Spiritual life...</p>
<p>Rāmeśvara: So the more people that come, the more intelligence is required to manage.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: We can accommodate more people also. There is no difficulty.</p>
<p>Gargamuni: Our Māyāpura can hold five hundred men now.</p>

Young people especially are eager to receive our philosophy and this must be presented very palatably, jut as you have induced your young son, Ekendra, to become first-class devotee. Now you must make hundreds of devotees like him.</p>

Now go on holding this Bhagavata Dharma discourses in every city of the world, in simple way, as we have done it in Nairobi, speaking something, having kirtana, distributing prasadam, and keep place to stay, camping and tents, for the devotees and guests, and in this way very quickly Lord Caitanya's movement will be spread all over the world and actually everyone will get enlightenment out of it.</p>

<span class="link">[[Vanisource:Letter to Bhavatarini -- Bombay 3 April, 1974|Letter to Bhavatarini -- Bombay 3 April, 1974]]: </span><div style="display: inline;" class="text"><p style="display: inline;">During the festival hundreds of devotees from countries all around the world all very much appreciated that these transcendental spots, Mayapur and Vrindaban are place of spiritual inspiration for all devotees of ISKCON. They are the best places in the world to come and chant Hare Krishna and prepare for going Back to Home, Back to Godhead. So you can help by your contribution so that all your Godbrothers and Godsisters can come and find shelter here. As for yourself and your child, these places are for you also. You can come to Mayapur where you can have a separate room, also Bombay this facility is there and it is very comfortable, or Vrindaban, or L.A. or wherever you choose. My only desire for my disciples is that they chant Hare Krishna Mantra at least 16 rounds, follow the rules and live in association of devotees then you will be happy and peaceful and not disturbed.</p>
