Prabhupāda: Eh?

Acyutānanda: (indistinct) room this land and (indistinct) for us.

Prabhupāda: We can accommodate them but he gives us donation.

Acyutānanda: (indistinct)

Prabhupāda: .. And to satisfy the (indistinct) you cannot (indistinct).

Acyutānanda: Yes.

Prabhupāda: This is inevitable. Now we can now... Whenever he comes we can provide four rooms, whenever he comes, this much (indistinct) but if we have allocated this four rooms (indistinct) always reserved for rooms.

Acyutānanda: We can use them (indistinct)

Prabhupāda: Ah.

Guru dāsa: Whenever you come when you have left?

Prabhupāda: Yes.

Guru dāsa: Whenever (indistinct)
