Prabhupāda: ...there should be any difference of amongst ourselves. We may differ from other philosophers, but why there should be any difference of philosophy amongst ourselves? Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: There seems to be some philosophical difference.

Prabhupāda: That I am asking. What is that philosophical difference? [break] Madhudviṣa: One of the points, obvious points, that is there is that many of the boys that are working with Siddha-svarūpa feel more allegiance to Siddha-svarūpa than they do to you.

Prabhupāda: That doesn't matter. Madhudviṣa: And they distribute his books instead of your books on the street. Which is a fact. Siddha-svarūpa: Which is a lie.

Madhudviṣa: Which is a fact. Siddha-svarūpa: Why do you do like that? Why do you say like that? Madhudviṣa: Because I have seen it in New Zealand.

Prabhupāda: No, no, if he denies that... Siddha-svarūpa: You know that they distribute Prabhupāda's books, but they can't give them away as cheaply, that's all. Madhudviṣa: Back to Godhead is very cheap. It is twelve cents a piece.

Siddha-svarūpa: They give those away. They give those away. Madhudviṣa: It is twelve cents a piece. You cannot say that.

Siddha-svarūpa: But anyway... Jayatīrtha: One of Siddha-svarūpa's men bought some Bhagavad-gītās from us in Los Angeles, several cases, so they are distributing Prabhupāda's books at least as well, along with others.
