Without Krishna consciousness, education and progress are merely symptoms masking civilization's fatal disease of godlessness.Listen — Srila Prabhupada Uvaca
Prabhupāda: When I was a child my father gave me one air gun. And then I was not more than eight years. Then, after getting one, I said, "I must have another one." "Eh?" Then father said, "Why another one? You have got already one." So I said, "No, I have got two hands.
I must have two guns." Then my father, "No, you are naughty. I am not going..." Then I made so much agitation, he was obliged to give me two guns. [laughter] I was very pet child of my father, and very pet son-in-law also. And I am very pet guru also.
[laughter] Hare Kṛṣṇa. [aside:] Thank you. What is this? Dr.
Prabhupāda: Oh. Puṣṭa Kṛṣṇa: Today is also the rāsa-yātrā of Balarāmajī.
Prabhupāda: Oh, rāsa-yātrā. Oh. So you have some festival? Dr.
Patel: Yes, they have got the festival in the Rāma-mandira. Girirāja: We're having a bigger festival in our mandira. Dr. Patel: Hanumān-jayantī?
Good. Puṣṭa Kṛṣṇa: Also it is the appearance day of Śyāmānanda Gosvāmī and Vaṁśī-vadanānanda Gosvāmī.
