Prabhupāda: Eh? ¶
Karāndhara: They never hit the tiger. ¶
Prabhupāda: Yes. ¶
Karāndhara: They just crack the whip. ¶
Prabhupāda: The tiger is so afraid simply by seeing that—he shuddered. Summarily it is not used. Simply in the hand. That is tactic. So if a tiger can be trained in that way, an animal, a ferocious animal and they cannot train the children? It needs a good teacher[?] Children will cry they will fight but you have to create. Teachers [indistinct] [LOUD] TAK! TAK! TAK! Immediately they stop. ¶

Karāndhara: They are bringing it [indistinct] did they get more work done on it? ¶
Kṛṣṇa-kānti: Yes [indistinct]. ¶
Prabhupāda: There was, there was a contract between a teacher and his students, law students. So the students says, “Sir I have no money I shall pay you when I practical.” [indistinct] so he says, “all right.” So after learning the law, so he was not going to the court… [indistinct] ¶
