Without Krishna consciousness, even great leaders cannot control material desires; true freedom means escaping birth and death.Listen — Srila Prabhupada Uvaca
Morning Walk — September 29, 1975, Ahmedabad 750929MW-AHMEDABAD [35:08 Minutes] Walk_750929MW-AHMEDABAD Kartikeya: The outside of garden may not be open... Brahmānanda: Park gate is closed.
Prabhupāda: [Hindi] ...mandāḥ, all bad men. Mandā sumanda-matayaḥ [SB 1.1.10]. And if he is supposed to be a good man, he will manufacture some mata, manda-mata, not approved by the śāstras. This is going on.
They will not hear Kṛṣṇa. They will give quotation from Brahma-kumārī. This is the greatest defect of modern civilization, that they won't accept real authority. They will create some authority.
Or rascal, he becomes authority. Especially in India, this is the drawback. In the Western countries they do not know much about this. Therefore they accept what I say.
But here they bring so many. So such an important man, he is bringing authority Brahma-kumārī, a house of prostitution. If he is bringing their quotation as authority, then what to speak of others? [break] Just like that Christian convent house.
They supply woman to rich men, and they supply money. That's all. This is Brahma-kumārī. Rich man, the same disease is there—yan maithunādi-gṛhamedhi-sukha hi tuccham [SB 7.9.45].
So if they get facility for some maithuna, they will give you money. [Hindi] ...prostitute, procurement house. Hmm? Brahmānanda?
