Suddenly Prabhupāda again began to speak: “There’s a very big conspiracy against us.”
“By the church?” guessed Dr. Patel.
“Not by the church,” said Prabhupāda.
“By the society?”
Prabhupāda uttered a thoughtful “Hmmm,” then added, “Now they are determined to cut down this movement.” He didn’t give any details, and neither Dr. Patel nor the others could fully draw out what was on his mind. Whatever it was, said Dr. Patel, no conspiracy against Kṛṣṇa consciousness could take place in India.
“I wanted to start this movement in India,” Prabhupāda replied. “I requested so many friends, ‘Give me just one son.’ But nobody agreed. They said, ‘Swamiji, what will be the benefit by this if I make my son a Vaiṣṇava or a brāhmaṇa?’ They do not give much importance to the movement. They are planning how to stop this movement in so many ways.”
Always a faithful Indophile, Dr. Patel replied, “The Americans are like that, always making propaganda.”
“There is good and bad in every place,” said Prabhupāda. “Kṛṣṇa says, manuṣyānāṁ sahasreṣu. Out of thousands of persons hardly anyone is interested in perfecting his life. This is Kali-yuga.”
