Spiritual consciousness combined with practical service and social organization creates genuine transformation.Listen — Srila Prabhupada Uvaca
Prabhupāda: [Transl. Please come.] Kartikeya... He's your son? No. Mr.
Dwivedi: No, he's my nephew. Prabhupāda: Nephew. Good boy. Mr. Dwivedi: And he's his brother-in-law. I came with one request and also a suggestion, if that is appealable to Your Holiness.
When I had been there in the night at home I has pondered a little, and I thought I am on very good terms with Mr. Jatti; easily approachable for me. Even in spite of the ministerial crisis on the 22nd, he met me. On the 2lst evening I went to Vṛndāvana.
So I saw the, our Mr. President, Akṣaya[nanda] Mahārāja. He wanted me to stay. I said, "No, I am going away.
I'm going with Mr. Jatti for tomorrow." And I think if he is just a little free from government engagements, he would like to preside or inaugurate this function, and I would call it by the inauguration of the Krishna Consciousness Society branch in the state of Madhya Pradesh and at this place. And therefore, as soon as I'll get permission from Your Holiness, I shall try to contact him tonight on telephone. Prabhupāda: It is... I think it is a good proposal.
If President comes, it must be acceptable. A very good chance. Mr. Dwivedi: So if I have your permission, I'll do this. Prabhupāda: Oh, yes.
I... For mine, that... You told that "You gain your weight, increase your weight." That induced me. Mr. Dwivedi: The very fact that Your Holiness will be going there, that has manifold increased our worth.
