Prabhupāda: Nobody knows. Jayapatākā: The volume is a million times more than the earth. Don't know the circumference. They say the sun is a million times bigger than the earth, volume.

Prabhupāda: Cleansing. Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Cleaning, pūjārīs, cooking.

Saurabha: Cleaning is very big job to maintain, especially with exhibitions that... Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Maintenance.

Saurabha: Yeah. Jayapatākā: We can get a lot of people, village people, to come and live without pay and do the cleaning, but they won't be productive. I mean, they'll have to be supported by the temple. They'll just be cleaning all day.

Prabhupāda: Supporting is no problem. To everyone we can give place and food. There is no problem. Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: If there is an escalator in the building, simply the proceeds from people going on that escalator, Prabhupāda...

Prabhupāda: Yes, there will be income. Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: ...will be a huge income. I'm certain thousands of people will come daily just to ride that escalator. [laughter] Because even now a few hundred or more—five hundred to a thousand people—come every day just for darśana.

So these will all pay a rupee. And if this building is there, that will be ten times the number of people. It'll be a gigantic income.
