Prabhupāda: So just you are seeing advertising on the road, telephone company. If you have got some problem do not hesitate to call. So what is the problem? What is your problem?...You cannot say anyone?
What is your problem. Of course that is especially for the devotees. But the common man what is the problem?
Prabhupāda: Yes... Death, Nobody wants to die, that's a fact. They are manufacturing medicine. So many preventive processes to check death, old age, disease.
These are the problems but where is the solution? The telephone company advertises, but is there any solution of this problem in this material world, by the material scientists? Try to understand this fact, they can give you facility and may bluff you that this is the solution. But the real problem remains the same.
You should always keep in view that the material scientist, leaders they cannot solve the real problem. That real problem can be solved by Kṛṣṇa Consciousness. Try to understand this. If you have any questions you can ask?
This is our challenge. It is not challenge it is fact. They can challenge whatever they like but [indistinct], but these problems. No telephone company can give us information for that how these problems can be solved.
