Prabhupāda: Then what is the use? Govinda dāsī: Yes. Prabhupāda: We have to stop the manufacturing ideas. What you have learnt by manufacturing ideas? He left. Off course, I do not wish to repeat the same thing.

He left everything. He was in charge of the center here, and all of a sudden he left, everything chaotic condition. But I am here to revive that chaotic condition, and now we are in this position. What he has done?

And leaving us in chaotic condition. Is this [indistinct] He left us in chaotic condition. Is it not? So if he leaves us he will suffer, we will not suffer.

Anyone who leaves us he will suffer. I will not suffer. That is a fact. So if he decides with intelligence that "I've made so many mistakes," then it is all right. Govinda dāsī: Was there any settlement?

When he talked to you today, did he indicate that he wanted to come back? Or does he… Prabhupāda: He does not speak anything. He simply hears. Now you can talk with him.

If he actually sticks to our principles and he starts, that is Kṛṣṇa's [indistinct]; otherwise, let him do whimsical activities his whole life. But these whimsical activities will not help him. Not only he, anyone who does whimsical activities. So many big, big, they have come here.

That is not good. I am convinced that if anyone is being whimsical, they will never be liberated. Moghāśā mogha-karmāṇo. Find out this verse. Puṣṭa Kṛṣṇa: Moghāśā mogha-karmāṇo. Prabhupāda: Mogha-jñānā vicetasaḥ. Hari śauri: 9.12, is it? Puṣṭa Kṛṣṇa: moghāśā mogha-karmāṇo mogha-jñānā vicetasaḥ rākṣasīm āsurīṁ caiva prakṛtiṁ mohinīṁ śritāḥ [Bg 9.12] Prabhupāda: Purport. Puṣṭa Kṛṣṇa: Purport: “There are many devotees who assume themselves to be in Kṛṣṇa consciousness and devotional service but at heart do not accept the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Kṛṣṇa, as the Absolute Truth.
