Support one another. Do not think that all students must come only to my center, questioning why they might go to another. To prevent such jealousy, we advise that in small towns there should be only one center. In a large city like Zagreb, centers may exist in different districts, but they should not be too close to one another. Now, if someone asks for information, saying, "When can I come to practice as a beginner? I only have time on Wednesday," but your center has no beginner class on Wednesday, it becomes your duty to tell this person: "We do not have the beginning course here on Wednesday, but the same class—identical in yoga and in life—is offered at that other center. You can go to that place." This is important because, in some countries, a sense of competition has already begun to appear, along with commercial interests. But that is no problem. You should earn money; you can earn money. I want to see you next time as a billionaire so that we can establish more ashrams. Money itself is not wrong. What is wrong is how we utilize it. What is essential is that I should be able to suggest my people go to Śrīdharan, and Śrīdharan should be able to suggest people go to Kṛṣṇānanda, and Kṛṣṇānanda should be able to suggest people go to Bhaktānanda. Or, if you have one class with too many people, you should tell some to go to the other center, explaining that you, as a teacher, will also be present there as a higher step. Give them the motivation to go to the other temple. Do not try to catch people only for yourself. Give people freedom. This approach is in the interest of yoga and the deathless life. Maintain the quality. Maintain the philosophy. Maintain the spirituality. Maintain your psychic, physical, spiritual, and intellectual condition so that you can give the light of Mahāprabhujī, or so that you yourself can be worthy enough to give that light. The system of yoga, the life, and our spiritual lineage are something very special. Therefore, do not count the people, but count the quality. All around the world, people are coming and beginning again to practice more and more yoga in their life.
