Devotee (1): She would like to ask you some questions. [lots of background chatter as things are set up] Royal Kennedy: I would like to know what the occasion is.
Prabhupāda: Just now I have seen one article in the Times, four, five pages article, "Crime...," and what is that? Brahmānanda: "Why and How to Solve It." Prabhupāda: "Why and How to Solve It." Brahmānanda: It's the cover story of Time.
Prabhupāda: So if you are serious, you can take our method and suggestion. Then you can stop this crime. Royal Kennedy: You have a way to stop the crime?
Prabhupāda: Oh, yes, I have. Royal Kennedy: Can you explain a little bit more? How do you do it?
Prabhupāda: That we have to suggest. The social, political, educational, cultural—everything has to be changed. So if you come, we can give you in details how it can be done. Royal Kennedy: Can you tell me how you feel about this welcome that you got?
Prabhupāda: Yes. Of course, by God's grace, wherever I go they welcome me like that. Royal Kennedy: Are you used to anything a little bit more serene? Prabhupāda: Serene? Of course, our whole propaganda is serene. Yes.
We are distributing God consciousness. It is the most serene movement. People has to learn it very nicely. Royal Kennedy: Thank you. [break] Prabhupāda: ...to stop the crimes of your country.
