Conversations and Morning Walks

1975 Conversations and Morning Walks

What will come? Trust no future, that's all. We must be always ready for destruction. Material world is like that. Nitya anityatam.
Morning Walk -- June 7, 1975, Honolulu:

Śrutakīrti: Siddha-svarūpa had said every twelve years it erupts, and I think it's been ten years since the last one or something. So it's expected that in two years...

Prabhupāda: The last time it devastated? No.

Śrutakīrti: I don't know. He said some damage, yes.

Bali-mardana: Paritally, not completely.

Paramahaṁsa: Partial devastation.

Prabhupāda: No, when volcano is in smoke, that is dangerous. That is dangerous. (break)

Devotee: Shall we sell our land, then?

Prabhupāda: What will come? Trust no future, that's all. We must be always ready for destruction. Material world is like that. Nitya anityatam. Canakya Paṇḍita has says, tyaja durjana-saṁsargam: "Avoid bad men's company." Bhaja sādhu-samāgamam: "Always try to associate with learned, what is, ādhu, with devotees. Avoid this worldly men's association and try to associate with devotees." Tyaja durjana-saṁsargam bhaja sādhu-samāgamam, and then smara nityam anityatam. "And always think that everything here in this material world is for few days." That's all. Tyaja durjana-saṁsargam bhaja sādhu-samāgamam. (break) Anityatam. (break) ...be the motto of life. (break) ...associate with the materialistic person, try to associate with devotee, and always think that this world is for few days. That's all.
