the earth and pour some water and it will grow a big tree? These
scientists, they cannot explain what is the chemical composition is
there. But there is. So that is in the hand of Ka. So this
knowledge means to understand the original source. That is
philosophy, find out the original source. That is knowledge. So the
vedais ca sarvair aham eva vedyo. Actually the knowledge terminates
when you understand Ka. He is the source of everything. So there
is a
Struggle for existence, a human race,
The only hope, His Divine Grace.
So
we
got
this
information
from
His
Divine
Grace
Bhaktisiddhnta Sarasvat hkura, and that knowledge is still going
on. You are receiving through his servant. And in future the same
knowledge will go to your students. This is called parampar system.
Eva parampar praptam... It is not that you have become a student
and youll remain student. No. One day you shall become also guru
and make more students, more students, more. That is Caitanya
Mahprahus mission, not that perpetually... Yes, one should remain
perpetually a student, but he has to act as guru. That is the
mission of Caitanya Mahprabhu. It is not that because I am acting
as guru, I am no longer student. No, I am still student. Caitanya
Mahprabhu taught us this instruction that we shall always remain a
foolish student before our Guru Mahrja. That is the Vedic culture.
I may be very big man, but still, I should remain a foolish student
to my guru. That is the qualification. Guru more mrkha dekhi karila
sana. We should be always prepared to be controlled by the guru.
That is very good qualification. Yasya prasdd bhagavat prasda.
ra n kariha mane a. So we should become always a very obedient
student to our guru. That is the qualification. That is the
spiritual qualification
My Guru Mahrja wanted me to preach in the Western countries,
although I was at that time an ordinary manager in a chemical firm.
I never thought, but I took it seriously. So from that 1922, in 1965
it was fruitful. How many years?
Devotee: Forty-three.
Prabhupda: Forty-three years. So it is better late than never. Yes.
So he desired me. I thought, Now I am a family man. Let me adjust
things. I would have accepted immediately but I was not so
intelligent at that time. I thought my responsibility to family is
there. Let me wait. But still, Guru Mahrja was so kind to me
that when I was ghastha, I was seeing him in dreaming and I was...
He asked me, You come with me. So I was going, and after that, I
was thinking, Oh, I will have to take sannysa and go with him? So
it appeared to me very horrible. I was not very much inclined to
take sannysa, but Guru Mahrja is so kind that he ultimately
forced me to take sannysa and do this work. So it is all his
kindness. So this is the memory of his kindness. So forty years ago
I remember the same thing as it is in 1922, and still the same thing
is going on. There is nothing new. We have nothing to do, new.
Simply let us present as it is; it will be successful. There is
no... You see. The spirit of my writing is the same.
Misled we are, all going astray.
