Hari-sauri: This will more or less revolutionize the way we're running our centers. If we introduce it, it will more or less revolutionize the way we're running our centers.

Prabhupada: Why? Why revolution?

Hari-sauri: Because right now our only emphasis is just to simply produce brahmanas.

Prabhupada: So why you are taking "we"? Why not others? This is kanistha-adhikari. You are thinking of "we." That is kanistha-adhikari. It is not that "we." Na tad-bhaktesu canyesu. You have to think for others also.

Satsvarupa: But the people are not at our disposal to organize.

Hari-sauri: We are thinking of "we" because actually we only have our own society at the moment to organize.

Satsvarupa: We cannot approach the masses to organize.

Hari-sauri: It can't be implemented on such a big scale.

Prabhupada: I do not follow what you say.

Satsvarupa: Just like...

Prabhupada: Ideal. We are giving the ideal.

Satsvarupa: But no one's listening and no one's taking it up except a few...

Prabhupada: But you take. You show them.

Hari-sauri: That's why we say, "we."

Prabhupada: That "We said" means not we are going to take them, but we are simply giving the ideas. We are not going to be a shudra. But to show the... Just like you play in a drama. You are playing the part of a king. You are not a king.

Hari-sauri: No.

Prabhupada: So similarly, just to give them idea, we have to play like that.

Hari-sauri: Well, again, that's...

Prabhupada: Not necessarily that we are going to be shudra. So that is it. That is the thing. We are servant of Krishna. That's all. And as servant of Krishna, we have to execute the order of Krishna.

Satsvarupa: So we can ideally organize ourselves and then for the rest of the people all we can do is hope that they'll follow it.

Prabhupada: Yes.

Bhavananda: Set the example.

Prabhupada: Example. Just like Bhavananda, when there was no commode here. He was taking my stool and urine. Does it mean he is a sweeper? He's a sannyasi Vaishnava. Similarly, apani acari' jive sikhaila. Caitanya Mahaprabhu said, "I am not a sannyasi." But He took sannyasa. Actually He is God, so what is the benefit of becoming a sannyasi, for God? But He became that. (break) In order to serve the mass of people, to bring them to the ideal position, we should try to introduce this varnashrama, not that we are going to be candidates of varnashrama. It is not our business. But to teach them how the world will be in peaceful position we have to introduce. Now, here is a very nice institution for the benefit of the whole society human. Now the days of wind will come from March.

Satsvarupa: Winds begin?

Prabhupada: And April this wind is...

Satsvarupa: Winds begin now?

Bhavananda: Yes. They'll start to come from the south. Vaikuntha breezes.

Prabhupada: Now, here is a very nice institution for the benefit of the whole society.
