Prabhupada saw how disappointed we were, he saved the situation
Brahmananda das: When Prabhupada saw how disappointed we were, he saved the situation by saying, "I can understand by this impulse that you want to know about the spiritual world and Radha and Krishna, Goloka. I will explain it to you." And then he just sat down and he started reciting the Brahma-samhita prayers and gave a very elaborate explanation of those prayers, the cintamani-dhama and Radha and Krishna, how They look, how They appear, what They do. He transported us to Goloka by his consciousness.
When he finished, we were leaving Brooklyn Botanical Gardens, Prabhupada ordered me, "This place is very nice and this will make a very nice location for a temple, and we want to build a temple. So you arrange to get this land donated. We'll make a very nice temple." Prabhupada had such a high vision that he would try for, so I had to do it. This park is a municipal park by the City of New York.
