Morning Walk — December 18, 1973, Los Angeles 731218MW-LOS ANGELES [44:49 Minutes] Walk_731218MW-LOS ANGELES Prajāpati: ...big gold letters over the whole front of the building where they were having inauguration of vice-president, "In God We Trust." Big letters.

Prabhupāda: Ācchā. Prajāpati: So they are advertising for us already, for Kṛṣṇa.

Prabhupāda: Belonging to the Ford family?

Devotee: Not the people that make the cars. No. Different Ford. Prajāpati: If we were there and we could make one speech in front of that assembled Congress and Senate, the main government of the United States, what were the main points we would stress?

Prabhupāda: Yes. The main point is that "In God We Trust," on this slogan... So the same point, that "What do you mean by God, and what do you mean by trust? That you do not know." So you have to explain what is God and what is trust thoroughly, from our books.

Our point of propaganda should be that "It is very good that you write this slogan, 'In God We Trust,' but nobody has got clear conception of God; neither they do not know what is the meaning of trust under the circumstances. So you have to learn it scientifically. And our propaganda is like that, to teach actually what is God and what is trust. And you important men of the State, you come forward, try to understand, and open schools, colleges.

Make it perfectly known what is God, and make America strong. "As the Communist party, they are preaching godlessness, now America should preach, 'No. In God we trust.' Now there should be a fight—not on the political point of view, but actually it includes everything. A class of men godless and a class of men who knows God, there should be fight. Then there will be peace in the world.
