Everything belongs to Krishna; surrender to Him as His eternal servant and all suffering ceases.Listen — Srila Prabhupada Uvaca
Morning Walk — May 1, 1973, Los Angeles 730501MW-LOS ANGELES [29:57 Minutes] Walk_730501MW-LOS ANGELES Svarūpa Dāmodara: Prabhupāda's morning walk. May 1, 1973, Los Angeles. Svarūpa Dāmodara: When I drove, so the stars were very shining in the sky very clear. [break]
Prabhupāda: Yes, the man-made, it is rubbish, although they have got machine. [break] Svarūpa Dāmodara: Smoother. [break]
Prabhupāda: What other things they can put there? Svarūpa Dāmodara: From sand?
Prabhupāda: Yes. Brahmānanda: Construction. Svarūpa Dāmodara: There is a compound that is called silicon carbide. That is, I think, it is very hard, as hard as diamond.
They make silicon carbide. I'm not sure, but silicon carbide or tungsten carbide. They are used for cutting diamond. They are harder than diamond.
It's very strong, very hard. They combine this with carbon. It requires tremendous amounts of force to do this—high temperature, high pressure. [pause]
Prabhupāda: Anything eatables? Svarūpa Dāmodara: [laughs] No, not so far. Brahmānanda: Future. Prabhupāda: "In future." But God creates so many eatables from sand. Do you know? Svarūpa Dāmodara: The smaller birds, they are eating something from the sand? Prabhupāda: No, even for man.
