You have to preach very nicely

Audio

Prabhupada:

...radha srila govinda-devau
presthalibhih sevyamanau smarami.

Sriman rasa-rasarambhi vamsi-vata-tata-sthitah
karsan venu-svanair gopir gopinathah sriye 'stu nah.

Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna, Krsna Krsna, Hare Hare
Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare.

All right. Chant. [devotees chant japa] Give me your beads. [japa]

Prabhupada: Is it tight? It must be tight?

Devotee: It must be tight?

Prabhupada: Yes. [japa]

Begin from here. Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna, Krsna Krsna, Hare Hare / Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare. Then take next. In this way you'll come this side. You don't cross this. Again from..., begin here, and come to this.

Such sixteen rounds must be done every day. Your spiritual name is Chandanacarya dasa. Chandanacarya. C-h-a-n-d-a-n-c-h-a-r-y-a dasa. Chandanacarya, a great preacher of this Krsna consciousness movement. So you are servant of that. You have to preach very nicely. Bow down.

nama om visnu-padaya krsna-presthaya bhu-tale
srimate bhaktivedanta-svamin iti namine

Now chant Hare Krsna and be happy. Take this.

Lady devotee: Haribol.

Prabhupada: [japa] You could not secure like that? This is all right. [japa] Put in your bag and do... [japa]

Begin from here, Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna, Krsna Krsna, Hare Hare / Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare. Next. In this way come to this point, again like that. And where is that chart, the ten kinds of offenses and the regulative principles?

Hamsaduta: I have it in Montreal.

Lady devotee: They have.

Hamsaduta: They have that. They already have that, Prabhupada. Yes.

Prabhupada: You must give them copies. Is there any name Madana-mohana dasa? Yes? There is? So his name should be Baradraj. B-a-r-a-d, Baradraj, r-a-j, Baradraj. Baradraj is another name of Lord Visnu. Baradraj dasa Brahmacari. All right. Just bow down. Bow down. Bow down.

nama om visnu-padaya krsna-presthaya bhu-tale
srimate bhaktivedanta-svamin iti namine

All right. Take your beads. Be happy. Baradraj. Hare Krsna. [japa] Chant. [japa] Keep it there. You can keep it. [japa]

Saradiya: [to devotees] You want to move a little closer?

Prabhupada: You can keep it.

Candanacarya: Put it down?

Prabhupada: Yes. Nama... You take little, little, everyone, and when I say svaha, you put it.

Satsvarupa: Prabhupada? Is Saradiya dasi going to take Gayatri?

Prabhupada: Gayatri... So where is that mantra sheet? Then I'll give you after. That's all.
