Srila Prabhupada's children

[Guest guest]

Srila Prabhupada: "When I was a small boy, one of my father’s friends said

to him that he should send me to England to become a barrister, as I was

very intelligent. But my father said that he would never send me to become

a mleccha. When I became a young man, I liked that idea and was thinking

why my father won’t let me go? Why not go to England and get a white wife

and white children? I thought somehow or other I should go and get an

English wife. When I was walking on morning walks in London near the law

colleges, I was thinking, ‘Now I have got thousands of white children

without the help of a white wife.’ If I had become a barrister, I would

have been a first-class barrister, putting so many convincing arguments in

so many ways. Just like the Japanese know how to strike you in the right

way. I put my arguments like karate."
