The world going around, spinning, and the Sun and so many nice arrangement. **[01:04]** This very complex machine. But they just won't ask, "What's the cause of that?" **[01:08]** If everything goes to disorder, who started the order in the first place? **[01:12]** They don't ask it, they just won't ask. Everyone raises this question. They just say, "We have no means of knowing." **[01:20]** That means you are rascal. Because you have no means... **[01:41]** ...there are many patients in the hospital, starving. Why do they not mention about them? **[01:46]** And give them food? Will it be allowed? There are thousands of patients in many hospitals, they are starving. **[01:56]** And go and supply them food. Why do they not go there? **[02:06]** Because it is the order of the superior. **[02:10]** Whatever it may be, there is some reason for their starving. **[02:18]** Most people do not understand that suffering is allotted to people, due to karma. They think it is just some accident. **[02:31]** We see that starvation...voluntary. They are also starving. **[02:40]** They have got enough food at home but still they are starving. Why? **[02:46]** Why they do not go there. - They become disgusted with their families. **[02:56]** Anyway starvating, there are many persons starving. **[03:10]** Conclusion is starving is one of the items of this material world. **[03:30]** Why throughout the whole world, there are so many persons, they are rotting in the jaols. Why? **[03:41]** Is it due to others fault or his fault? **[04:10]** His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada will soon be getting here **[04:15]** and we are getting the temple ready for the occasion. **[04:21]** Here, in his private garden, he speaks with a well-known Venezuelan lawyer, and a Dominican ambassador to Turkey. **[04:28]** So, therefore, the modern education they're simply committing sinful activities. **[04:48]** So nature's law is so strict but we are walking on the grass, **[04:55]** and killing some ants and insects so we are responsible. **[05:13]** Therefore, unless we keep ourselves busy in Krishna's business, **[05:19]** we are becoming liable to be punished for so many criminal activities. **[05:38]** Just like in your law, if somebody kills somebody else, he's punished. **[05:52]** Manmade laws, they are made, if a man kills another man then he is punished, **[06:00]** but if he kills an ant, he is not punished. **[06:13]** But God made law is if you kill a man you are punishable, if you kill an ant, you are punishable. **[06:31]** His Divine Grace daily gives discourses on his morning walks about the value of human life and the purpose **[06:39]** behind spiritual understanding. Disciples and friends as well as important dignitaries from all parts of the world **[06:47]** put questions to His Divine Grace Srila Prabhupada, and he explains very simply from the highest platform **[06:54]** of spiritual realization, the sublime nature of this sankirtan movement of Lord Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. **[07:03]** At any time one side of the planet is hidden by the sunshine, **[07:07]** so one is saying, "This side is better than the other side." Although it is stool, **[07:14]** because the up-side is dry, he says, "This is better side." **[07:19]** Similarly, you have to die but they think that dying out of starvation **[07:27]** and motor accident is not good. Dying in this way is good. But when you say stop death, they don't hear. **[07:42]** So what is contradiction? Everyone is being controlled. **[07:46]** What is contradiction? **[07:50]** One day they say one thing, one day they say something else. **[07:54]** That means rascals. **[07:59]** You cannot talk because you have no knowledge. **[08:02]** You say "perhaps", "maybe." What is the value of your knowledge? **[08:04]** Don't talk! **[08:08]** The monkey is very busy. Whatever comes... **[08:14]** Unnecessary. And people will in India "Drive, drive, drive." **[08:21]** But they think they're very busy. Very important person. **[08:39]** Very small brains, big mouth. **[08:54]** You have got nice argument for capturing, but no opportunity for capturing. **[09:21]** No food. Inviting some of us. **[09:36]** The more you distribute, the more you become recognized. **[09:57]** But, like, the same teacher I heard him saying this, ? says this. He said, **[10:02]** "There is no god. This is an invention of the necessity of mind." **[10:07]** Why do you die? **[10:14]** He says the most perfect, no one can make something better... **[10:17]** What is perfection? Why do you die? You don't like to die. **[10:20]** Where is perfection? Nobody wants to die. But to be sure he will die. **[10:28]** Where is perfection? **[10:30]** He says it is because of the fear of dying, one invents God. **[10:35]** Stop at this and we shall not think of God. **[10:38]** So you follow the advice as given by Rupa Goswami. **[10:47]** The first thing is enthusiasm, that I must see Krishna. **[10:54]** You are seeing Krishna, the deity of Krishna and Krishna is non-different. **[10:58]** But even personally you can see, simply we have to continue the enthusiasm. **[11:27]** Enthusiasm means to take things very seriously, and patiently, **[11:35]** although we are determined to go back to home, back to Godhead. **[11:40]** So you should patiently follow the rules and regulations. **[12:01]** So these are the six principles: enthusiasm and firm determination, **[12:11]** and patience, and executing the regulative principles, **[12:22]** means behavior must be very honest, no duplicity. **[12:37]** Dealing must be very honestly, no hypocrisy. and in the association of devotees. **[12:49]** If you follow these six principles, namely enthusiasm, determination, patience, **[12:57]** and executing the regulative principles, and keep yourself honest and **[13:06]** in the association of devotees. **[13:09]** Thank you for receiving me in this temple, and I was very happy. **[13:14]** So my request is that you continue your devotional service very faithfully **[13:26]** and rigidly, then in this life you'll be able to see Krishna face to face. **[13:36]** That is a fact.
