Morning Walk, [partially recorded] – March 4, 1974, Māyāpur

Prabhupada: ...every paisa you should spend for Krsna. Not that "Krsna is giving money. Let us squander it as much as we like." Then there will be scarcity. [break] What is that?

Jayapataka: This is a short cut.

Prabhupada: Oh, all right. [break] ...pūjyante dhanya yatra susancitam [Canakya Panḍita], "Where a rascal is not worshiped, where foodstuff is kept very carefully," and dampatyoḥ kalaha nasti, "and when there is no fight between husband and wife, or family-wise," tatra sriḥ svayam agataḥ, "there goddess of fortune is always present." Hare Krsna. This is the principle given by Canakya Panḍita, the greatest politician and moralist. Mūrkha means who is not pure devotee of Krsna. He's a mūrkha or mūḍha. Not that A-B-C-D learned. A-B-C-D learned is no use. And another sloka, Canakya Panḍita says who is learned man. Matrvat para-daresu: "One who does not think of any illicit sex life." Matrvat... Every woman-mother. Except his married wife, every woman is mother. Matrvat para-daresu para-dravyesu lostravat [Canakya Panḍita]: "And others' money, just like garbage." Nobody touches.

Matrvat para-daresu para-dravyesu lostravat, and atmavat sarva-bhūtesu: "And one who sees like himself all other living entities, he's panḍita, he's learned." Not by M.A., Ph.D.

[aside:] Hare Krsna.

[break] ...yaḥ pasyati. Samaḥ sarvesu bhūtesu [Bg 18.54].

[break] ...niharam iva bha... It is called nihara. As long..., as soon as the sun becomes strong, immediately, everything finished. Just see. This... What is called fog, or...?

Jayapataka: Just like when you came to the West, Prabhupada, you cleared away the fog.

Prabhupada: At least I tried for that. Whatever is done, it is done by Krsna. [break] ...keeps intelligent to the sincere servant. Otherwise, everything is done by Krsna. So if you..., one is sincere to Krsna, he will act everything rightly because the direction is... Buddhi yogam dadami tam [Bg 10.10]. The perfect direction is there. I do not know why people denies to take direction from Krsna. He gets perfect direction, but he does not like to take. What is this tree?

Jayapataka: The imli, I think.

Prabhupada: Lol imli?

Jayapataka: Not imli? They call that...

Prabhupada: No, no, not imli. Imli's different. This way, up to that river? [break] Bas. Vasudeva-parayana [SB 6.1.15]. Vasudeva-parayana, means Krsna conscious person, they solve all questions by one thing: Krsna consciousness. Exactly like the sun solves all the problem of this nihara, foss. It is called foss?

Jayapataka: Fog.

Prabhupada: Fog.

Jayapataka: Mist.

Prabhupada: Niharam iva bhaskara [SB 6.1.15]. Let the scientists do it in their scientific way, drive away the fog. Is there any process? Eh? [laughs] In the ocean, when there is fog like this, they have to stop all the ships and cry, [makes sound like fog horn:] onnnh, onnnh, so that they may not collide. I have seen it when I was coming, going to USA. Where is Mohanananda? He is here? No. Mohanananda? Hare Krsna. The difference between other camps and our: they call these men from their daily, I mean to say, life, householder's life, for this purpose for a week or so, but they are not dedicated. Here, in our camp, all our people are dedicated to the cause. That is the difference. So they cannot surpass your activities.

Jayapataka: Because you are dedicated, Srila Prabhupada.

Prabhupada: Yes, everyone should be dedicated, I or you. Does not... That is the success of life. Dedicate your life for Krsna. That is the perfection. Even there are some faults, even dedicated life is noble life. Maybe, due to our past habits, we may commit some faulty action, but that dedicated life is sublime. Api cet suduracaro bhajate mam ananya-bhak, sadhur eva sa mantavyaḥ [Bg 9.30].

Jayapataka: This, from this... This is the land that we want to get. It starts from here. And that's our land there. [break]

Prabhupada: ...immediately appreciates Krsna's intelligence. Parasya saktir vividhaiva srūyate sva-bhaviki... [Cc Madhya 13.65, purport]. It is being done as if automatically. But no, there is brain. That brain, these rascals, they cannot find out. Machine, nature only. What is this nature? Nonsense. So which way we shall go? This way? Up to the river?

Jayapataka: Yes. [break]

Prabhupada: Each and every grain...

Jayapataka: Here's our mango tree.

Prabhupada: Eh?

Visnujana: Mango.

Prabhupada: Mango tree?

Visnujana: Yes.

Bhavananda: Planted, uh... [end]
