Prabhupāda: No, no, if you are in knowledge, you can predict. But if you are fool, you cannot say. If I see that in July there will be rain, and if you are a fool, you'll protest. That is your foolishness. It is natural sequence, one after another.
Madhudviṣa: When is the natural sequence . . .?
Prabhupāda: Natural sequence . . . Just like you are infected some contaminous disease; you will suffer. There is a story that one fool was sitting on a branch of a tree and he was cutting off. And somebody said, "You'll fall down." "Ha, fall down." But when he fell down he said, "Oh, you are a great astrologer." So who goes to the astrologer? Only fools and rascal. No sane man goes. They know that what is . . . Yad bhavyantam tad bhavata.(?) What is to happen, that will happen. Why shall I go to astrologer?
Gurukṛpā: I can prepare myself to make change.
Prabhupāda: Yes. My only business is to serve Kṛṣṇa. I don't mind what will happen next.
Puṣṭa Kṛṣṇa: That desire to serve Kṛṣṇa, though, that Kṛṣṇa . . .
Prabhupāda: Don't talk like foolish. That desire everyone has. He is serving. He is serving so many things, but he doesn't want to serve Kṛṣṇa. That is his foolishness. He is serving māyā; still, he denies to serve Kṛṣṇa. That is his misfortune. Ei rūpe brahmāṇḍa bhramite kono bhāgyavān jīva (CC Madhya 19.151). So unless one is very fortunate, he does not agree to serve Kṛṣṇa.
Madhudviṣa: So that future is determined by the great souls, such as yourself.
Prabhupāda: No, that . . .
Madhudviṣa: Because you are creating people's good fortune.
Prabhupāda: Fortune, there. It is already there. I am simply informing.
