The western tendency is always not to accept Vedic authorities. And imitating them Indians are also now declining to accept the Vedas. Our Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement are based on Vedic authorities. If people do not accept Vedic authorities then our movement has no sound foundation.

Prabhupāda: We do not take, the philosophical side is not primitive then why they are reading ''Bhagavad-gītā'' and ''Vedas'' there are many scholars they appreciate. German people appreciate. Hitler was too much fond of Vedic civilisation he therefore marked his flag swastika. Why mark is there? That is appreciation. And still by comparison the idea of modern civilisation and the ideal presented there, one must have appreciation.

The social structure of Vedic civilisation, ''brāhmin'', ''kṣatriya'', ''vaiśya'', it is very scientific. If it is not scientific then why modern young men they are accepting it as nice? So by accepting Kṛṣṇa consciousness you're going back to primitive stage? Or making advancement?

Karāndhara: Well so far as. If we consider dismantling the industrial pathological . . . (indistinct) . . . the advancement? They are convinced they must have a newer newer machines, newer newer technology, newer newer medicines, more and more research. They considered this as manifest . . . (indistinct)

Prabhupāda: More and more researching means whatever you are doing that is imperfect. And with their ideas not everyone agrees. And why the section known as hippies they are not taking part in it? They are also born in this country.

The western tendency is always not to accept Vedic authorities. And imitating them Indians are also now declining to accept the ''Vedas''. Our Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement are based on Vedic authorities. If people do not accept Vedic authorities then our movement has no sound foundation.

Devotee: (indistinct) . . . very difficult.

Prabhupāda: Eh?

Devotee: To accept another authority other than your own, the process involved is very difficult.
