Nectar Drops from Srila Prabhupada
"If you don't give them some attraction, they will keep the same attractions in the village: the same intoxication, wine, meat-eating, gambling. So they will not be happy. They will import the same thing, because they have no other attraction. So if you give us chance, we can give them spiritual attraction. If you allow us that some of us can go and give them spiritual attraction. And practically the hippies, drug-addicted, they have attracted, they have got attraction now for Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement, and they have given up their other bad habits, eating meat and drinking and illicit sex, gambling. If this is introduced again in the village, they must have some attraction. Because living entity is ānanda, sac-cid-ānanda, part and parcel of God. They want eternal, blissful life of knowledge. That is their hankering."
