Conversations and Morning Walks

1977 Conversations and Morning Walks

A very risky civilization. A living being gets the opportunity to understand all the secrets of nature's path, but he's denied the opportunity. Very dangerous. He's thinking like animal—eating, sleeping, that's all. And big, big educationist, and in . . . like Professor Kotovsky, he said: "Swāmījī, after this body is finished, everything is . . ." Just see.

Brahmānanda: We don't know what it is.

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Something like a boil. So he was sitting most of the time.

Prabhupāda: Now I have advised the books in the schools, colleges, our Hindi, Bengali, English. We can put in every school. I was instructing . . .

Devotee: Māyāpur town?

Prabhupāda: Everywhere, all over the world. It will be a revolution from godlessness to understanding of God. That is wanted. Otherwise the whole human society is suffering. Harāv abhaktasya kuto (SB 5.18.12). This advancement of so-called education has no value. It is very risky. They do not know how the nature's law is working. Rascals. They're taking this short duration of life, māyā-sukhāya bharam udvahato vimūḍhān (SB 7.9.43), making big, big plans, forgetting they're completely under the control of nature. A very risky civilization. A living being gets the opportunity to understand all the secrets of nature's path, but he's denied the opportunity. Very dangerous. He's thinking like animal—eating, sleeping, that's all. And big, big educationist, and in . . . like Professor Kotovsky, he said: "Swāmījī, after this body is finished, everything is . . ." Just see.

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: No intelligence. (break)

Prabhupāda: Anyone who has understood the value of Hare Kṛṣṇa, he's saved. We should not simply keep ourselves saved. We should think for others. That is para-upakāra. That you cannot do unless you are in the safe position. Janma sārthaka kari'. If you become polluted, then you cannot do. That is the secret. If you are not polluted, then you can do. Otherwise it will be show only, no effect. This is the secret. Janma sārthaka kari' kara para-upakāra (CC Adi 9.41). So things are very easy, not at all difficult. If you follow, then you can do good to others.
