They want to hear.
Suresvara das: Srila Prabhupada is ushered into the temple room, small temple room, and he is surrounded by gurus and GBCs and then the rest of the men came in. It was so small that the ladies couldn't even come inside. There was one window on the side of the room and their noses are pressed against the window trying to at least see Srila Prabhupada, and Prabhupada is about to speak.
Then Prabhupada notices them in the window and Prabhupada says, "You have to make room for them. They want to hear." I remember that, "They want to hear." So he insists that all the leaders and then the rest of the men squeeze in closer to him so that all the ladies can come in and hear. And it just struck me how he did that because Prabhupada was always very attentive to everything that was going on, and he saw them, how eager they were, and he just immediately, "You have to make room for them. They want to hear."
