Jayapataka Swami: Generally, we give classes in the temple free of charge. I am trying to think. Sometimes like for instance in Vrndavana or Mayapur, they teach Bhakti Sastri or Bhakti Vaibhava. So they charge something. But you take the course and it is understood that they are charging something. There is a teacher, for three months, he has dedicated himself to teach you. So if there is a particular special course, they are offering a certain degree, diploma or something, then they may charge it but then people know that this course is long, I have to pay this much and I will get this degree. Unless some people think that these degrees should be given for free. Then someone should finance the teachers. Normally if we are giving class or something, we don’t charge unless there is some program to get some degree.
