My first meeting was with Prime Minister Morarji Desai.32 We talked about the Bhagavad Gita and he was very nice.
Once when I was travelling to a particular country, they said that I did not need a visa, so I did not have one. But when I arrived, they would not allow me to enter the country. I never carry any credentials with me. I had only a newspaper. In that newspaper was a photograph of me with Morarji Desai. I showed it to the official and he said, “Oh, your Prime Minister!” Then I did not need a visa.
Very briefly we saw Indira Gandhi in New York. The disciples were singing for her.
Narasimha Rao said such nice things at the United Nations.33 Afterwards we became very close.
Prime Minister Vajpayee was very, very nice.34 I met him in Bali.
