While explaining to Srila Prabhupada some of my War Stories of Dacca 1971, His Divine Grace recites to me His Incredible Story, of How He Saved Srila BSS Thakur Dacca Math from being secretly exchanged with a property in Calcutta through a Muslim……
Prabhupāda: Tīrtha Mahārāja was planning to exchange that property with a Calcutta Muhammadan, that he would give him that property, and this Muhammadan would give him this property, his property. I checked it. I approached the donor, the zamindar, that “You donated this temple, and it is going to be in the hands of Muhammadan. Do you like it?” So he said, “No, I don’t like it.” I said, “Make it inquiry.” He inquired, and he immediately wrote Tīrtha Mahārāja that “You are contemplating. This we do not approve. We are the donor.” So Tīrtha Mahārāja replied him that “It is no more in the hands of the donor. I am the trustee. Whatever I like, I can do.”
Gargamuni: Ruthless.
Prabhupāda: There was very strong correspondence, and Tīrtha Mahārāja could not dare to do it. Otherwise he arranged like that, to give the temple to a Muhammadan and accept a Calcutta property which belonged to the Muhammadan.
Gargamuni: So when he could not do that, he just left it.
Prabhupāda: Yes. He had no spiritual idea. Simply he wanted to exploit the property. That’s all.>>> Ref. VedaBase => Room Conversation — January 19, 1977, Bhubaneswar
