740619rc.germany Conversations Prabhupada: My idea is that all our centers should be self-supported. We do not like that idea that for your support you have to go 100 miles to get your bread. That is a very dangerous drawback. You produce your food locally and then support yourself. The main problem is what to eat, where to sleep. So we get some place and support ourself by producing our own food. We have already begun in New Vrindaban, New…, West Virginia, Virginia, and similarly in other centers, we are producing our food, grains, vegetables, fruits and milk. That is sufficient. …..
As the times all over this world , get even more tough to make a “living” and one has to
undergo so much austerity-just to– get to “work”, and then actually work
at a place one really doesn’t like, these instructions by Srila Prabhupada are starting
to sound more and more attractive to one so much harassed by modern day
so called “living”.
Hare Krsna,
Damaghosa das-go ahead shoot the messenger, see if I care…
