Prabhupāda: (to passerby) Hare Kṛṣṇa. (someone's pet dog yaps) (break)

Prabhupāda: Now they are becoming civilized. (laughter) Advanced. (break) Therefore I made this Trust: fifty percent, fifty percent.

Brahmānanda: So there will always be money for purchasing.

Prabhupāda: Yes. And because we are doing that, Kṛṣṇa is giving us facility. (break) . . . beginning how much difficulty we had. We could not purchase that house, number Sixty street?

Brahmānanda: Yes. That was a hundred thousand dollars, that house.

Gopāla Kṛṣṇa: A hundred thousand? That's. . .

Prabhupāda: No, no. Not hundred. Sixty. Sixty thousand dollars. Sixty thousand dollars, and still, we could not. Another attempt was made to purchase that bank building. So we had no money, only five thousand, and that was also taken away.
