[someone chanting verses in Sanskrit] 

Prabhupāda: [Hindi] [break] 

Haṁsadūta: …to Bombay. 

Prabhupāda: Yes. 

Haṁsadūta: The roadway is always difficult. It’s better if you travel by air. [break] 

Prabhupāda: They are dangerous road. 

Vāsughoṣa: The roads are not very good. 

Haṁsadūta: Tribhuvanātha is in Gujarat, is that right? 

Vāsughoṣa: Gujarat, right. 

Haṁsadūta: He’s collecting to get the bus fixed. [break] Another one, a small one. [break] The day Your Divine Grace… [break] …so much danger with these machines. Not a… [break] Motorcycle… [break] [indistinct fragments] 

Vāsughoṣa: It’s very old. [break] Many Arabs are here in Hyderabad. 

Prabhupāda: Oh. 

Indian man: They come here to get married. They marry local Muslims and go. 

Vāsughoṣa: They have so much money, but they only have a desert, so they have to come to India to try and enjoy. There’s nothing to enjoy in Arabia, simply sand. 

Prabhupāda: Arabians come here, I know. 

Vāsughoṣa: In Bombay also, all the big hotels are filled with Arabians. 

Prabhupāda: Ācchā? 

Devotee (1): This Taj and Oberoi, so many are there. 

Prabhupāda: India has good income from Arabian tourist. 

Vāsughoṣa: Yes. And they come back again and again to India. 

Prabhupāda: Ācchā? 

Vāsughoṣa: Even in Bahrain I met the brother of the ruler, and he said that he liked India the best of any place he had been. He had been all over the world. 

Prabhupāda: That’s a fact. 

Vāsughoṣa: He said India was the best place. So I told him to stay in our hotel in Juhu next time he came. [break] [end]
