# July 29 *Lectures from this day: 10 recordings* --- **[[spoken/660729bg.ny|Bg 4.12-13 — July 29, 1966, New York]]** **Prabhupāda:** All glories to the assembled devotees. All glories to the assembled devotees. All glories to the assembled devotees. Thank you very much... [break] This verse was being discussed in our last meeting, that there are four divisions of men in the human society, and that division is natural. That is not artificial, because the whole material nature is working under the influence of three modes of nature: goodness, passion and ignorance. You cannot classify the whole human race into one. So long we are in the material world, it is not possible to make everyone on the same standard. It is not possible, because each and every one is working under the influence of different modes of nature. Therefore there must be division, natural division. This point we have discussed. --- **[[spoken/680729in.mon|Initiation of Bali-mardana Dāsā — July 29, 1968, Montreal]]** **Prabhupāda:** Two *brahmacārīs* will be initiated in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. You can come forward. Yes. [break] ...means the beginning, and the beginning of Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Because at the present moment we are merged into non–Kṛṣṇa consciousness... **Prabhupāda:** All right, you... Let your... Beginning of Kṛṣṇa consciousness means first of all faith. *Ādau śraddhā:* the beginning is faith. What is that faith? Faith means firm conviction that "If I become transcendentally engaged in the service of the Lord, then my life becomes successful." --- **[[spoken/710729ar.gai|Arrival Lecture — July 29, 1971, Gainesville]]** **Prabhupāda:** ...see you chanting the *mahā-mantra.* Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu predicted that in every village, town, country on the surface of the globe this *saṅkīrtana* movement will be spreading. So we are very much obliged to you that in this remote place, which is thousands and thousands miles away from Lord Caitanya's birthplace, Navadvīpa, and you are carrying out, to fulfill His desire, chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa *mantra.* So Caitanya Mahāprabhu—the picture is there—assisted by four others, Pañca-tattva. Kṛṣṇa appeared in five principles. Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu is Kṛṣṇa Himself, and Nityānanda Prabhu is His immediate expansion, and Advaita Prabhu is incarnation. Gadādhara Prabhu is internal potency, and *śrīvāsādi*, Śrīvāsa is the..., heading the list of His devotees. Śrīvāsa represents the marginal potency of Kṛṣṇa. So *śrī-kṛṣṇa-caitanya prabhu-nityānanda śrī-advaita gadādhara śrīvāsādi-gaura-bhakta-vṛnda* means Kṛṣṇa complete. Just like when we speak of a king, "king'' does not mean king is alone. If somebody says "The king is coming here," it is to be understood that king with his associates coming. King does not come alone. Whenever a..., the king goes, he goes with his secretary, minister, commander, so many other people. King is never alone. There must be queen also, and queen's associates. Similarly, Kṛṣṇa, the supreme King, how He can be alone? He's not alone. He's always with His associates. --- **[[spoken/710729bg.gai|Bg 7.1 — July 29, 1971, Gainesville]]** **Prabhupāda:** > ...yogaṁ yuñjan mad-āśrayaḥ > asaṁśayaṁ samagraṁ māṁ > yathā jñāsyasi tac chṛṇu > [[bg/7/1|[Bg. 7.1] ]] Lord Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, speaking about the topmost form of *yoga* system. In the Sixth Chapter of *Bhagavad-gītā* He has explained the general *haṭha-yoga* system. Please remember that we are preaching this Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement on the authority of *Bhagavad-gītā.* It is nothing manufactured. So this *bhakti-yoga* system is authorized, and if you want to know about God, then you have to adopt this *bhakti-yoga* system. Because in the Sixth Chapter of *Bhagavad-gītā* it is concluded that the topmost *yogī* is he who is always thinking of Kṛṣṇa within himself. --- **[[../../spoken/1971/710729iv.gaia.md|Television Interview — July 29, 1971, Gainesville]]** *[Lecture file not found]* --- **[[../../spoken/1971/710729iv.gaib.md|Interview — July 29, 1971, Gainesville]]** *[Lecture file not found]* --- **[[spoken/730729bg.lon|Bg 1.41-42 — July 29, 1973, London]]** **Pradyumna:** *Oṁ namo bhagavate vāsudevāya.* *Oṁ namo bhagavate vāsudevāya.* *Oṁ namo bhagavate vāsudevāya.* *saṅkaraḥ—*such unwanted children; *narakāya—*for hellish life; *eva—*certainly; *kula-ghnānām—*of those who are killers of the family; *kulasya—*of the family; *ca—*also; *patanti—*fall down; *pitaraḥ—*forefathers; *hi—*certainly; *eṣām—*of them; *lupta—*stopped; *piṇḍa—*offerings; *udaka—*water; *kriyāḥ—*performance. --- **[[spoken/750729mw.dal|Morning Walk — July 29, 1975, Dallas]]** **Satsvarūpa:** In a newspaper report, Śrīla Prabhupāda, about India, it said that the mass of people in the rural areas didn't even know that there was an emergency rule. They don't... It's so peaceful. They're not affected. [break] **Prabhupāda:** ...of people, they do not care for these political things. Even in Gandhi's strong civil disobedience movement, out of the whole population of India, only sixty-thousand men joined. What is the India's population? **Prabhupāda:** Six hundred million, and out of that, sixty thousand joined, and it became successful. Sixty thousand joined by statistics. Actually worker, I don't think more than ten thousand people. [pause] Exactly like Indian village. Here there is no business. They simply reside. --- **[[spoken/750729sb.dal|SB 6.1.47 — July 29, 1975, Dallas]]** **Nitāi:** "Just as this present springtime indicates the nature of the past springtimes and the future springtimes, similarly, this life of happiness, distress or a mixture of both gives evidence of religious and irreligious activities of past and future lives." [break] **Prabhupāda:** > vartamānaḥ anyayoḥ kālo > guṇabhijñāpako yathā > evaṁ janmānyayor etad > dharmādharma-nidarśanam > [[sb/6/1/47|[SB. 6.1.47] ]] So there are three phases of time: past, present and future. Time is eternal; I am also eternal. But because I am in the material world, the time is relatively divided into past, present and future. Relativity, the law of relativity, I have explained several times. Brahmā's past, present, future and the ant's past, present, future are not the same. Similarly, our past, present, future or the ant's past, present, future are not the same. Time is eternal, but according to the quality of the body, the past, present, future is calculated. So it is said in the *Bhagavad-gītā...* Kṛṣṇa says, *vedāhaṁ samatītāni* [[bg/7/26|[Bg. 7.26] ]]. Because Kṛṣṇa is not changing body, therefore He has no past, present, future. Those who are changing body, they have got past, present, future. I had my childhood. I have changed the body in this old age. Therefore I think, "In the past I was like this, or future, I will be like this." So this is relative. Time is eternal, we are eternal, but because we have accepted this temporary body, therefore we have to calculate past, present and future. So future means... Just like there is ordinary word in English, "Child is the father of man," future. The same child will be father or grandfather in future. --- **[[spoken/760729ar.nmr|Arrival at Farm — July 29, 1976, New Māyāpur]]** **Bhagavān:** Most are at the farm, waiting. Here there is about sixty; the rest are there. They told me that after I told them that you might not come, the next morning at *maṅgala ārtik* no one was dancing. **Prabhupāda:** [laughs] I know that. Therefore I come in this old age to encourage the devotees. [coughs] Hare Kṛṣṇa, Hare Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa, Hare Hare. **Prabhupāda:** Not necessarily. Simply prepare nice *dāl,* nice rice, vegetable, some bitter melon, and two, three *chapātis,* that's all. Not cumberous. Sufficient. Must be well cooked, rice. That's all. --- ## Letters - [[../../letters/1967/670729_messrs_atmaram_and_sons.md|Letter to Messrs Atmaram And Sons, 1967]] - [[../../letters/1968/680729_brahmananda.md|Letter to Brahmananda, 1968]] - [[../../letters/1968/680729_gurudasa.md|Letter to Gurudasa, 1968]] - [[../../letters/1968/680729_madhusudana.md|Letter to Madhusudana, 1968]] - [[../../letters/1969/690729_paramananda.md|Letter to Paramananda, 1969]] - [[../../letters/1969/690729_prahladananda.md|Letter to Prahladananda, 1969]] - [[../../letters/1969/690729_satsvarupa.md|Letter to Satsvarupa, 1969]] - [[../../letters/1970/700729_manager_of_punjab_national_bank.md|Letter to Manager Of Punjab National Bank, 1970]] - [[../../letters/1970/700729_unknown.md|Letter to Unknown, 1970]] - [[../../letters/1972/720729_acyutananda.md|Letter to Acyutananda, 1972]] - [[../../letters/1972/720729_citsukhananda.md|Letter to Citsukhananda, 1972]] - [[../../letters/1972/720729_gargamuni.md|Letter to Gargamuni, 1972]] - [[../../letters/1972/720729_hrdayananda.md|Letter to Hrdayananda, 1972]] - [[../../letters/1972/720729_madhudvisa.md|Letter to Madhudvisa, 1972]] - [[../../letters/1972/720729_sudama.md|Letter to Sudama, 1972]] - [[../../letters/1972/720729_yadubara.md|Letter to Yadubara, 1972]] - [[../../letters/1974/740729_iskcon.md|Letter to Iskcon, 1974]] - [[../../letters/1975/750729_cyavana.md|Letter to Cyavana, 1975]] - [[../../letters/1975/750729_deoji_punja.md|Letter to Deoji Punja, 1975]] - [[../../letters/1975/750729_gurukrpa.md|Letter to Gurukrpa, 1975]] - [[../../letters/1975/750729_hansadutta.md|Letter to Hansadutta, 1975]] - [[../../letters/1975/750729_tulsi.md|Letter to Tulsi, 1975]] - [[../../letters/1976/760729_cyavana.md|Letter to Cyavana, 1976]] - [[../../letters/1976/760729_mantrini.md|Letter to Mantrini, 1976]] - [[../../letters/1976/760729_mr._b.j._murdock.md|Letter to Mr. B.J.
