we all know about the famous quote pounded at us ad infinitum... (demon-crazy) but check that one out:
Prabhupada: This deposition is very difficult to solve.
(laughing) You want to stay, and he wants to burn it. (laughing)
Hayagriva: Yes. '85If the president is in charge, then if he says
to cut it down, it gets cut down.
Prabhupada: No. The committee. The majority decision will be'85
Hayagriva: That'92s democracy. That'92s democracy. That'92s no good.
Prabhupada: Democracy? This is the age of democracy.
Hayagriva: I thought you said we should have enlightened monarchy.
Prabhupada: No. Monarchy is out of date now. '85
If you have to live together, you have to work together; if you disagree in that way, it will be a difficult job.

but isnt democrazy just dictatorship in disguise? ( see the US for example)user [2] · 2007-08-20
Greek concept of democracy has nothing to do with the US present model. In Greece any citizen could get elected for office or responsability post and they did it.
Not a "dual-boot" autocrat two parties haven like now.
