Without God consciousness, all human intelligence and achievement becomes foolishness and rascaldom.Listen — Srila Prabhupada Uvaca
Prabhupāda: ...obedient to God—that means offer sacrifices—then there will be regular rain. And if there is regular rain, any damn land is good for any purpose. Land has been made bad because there is no regular rain. They...
Why the desert is? If there is regular rain, the desert will be also fertile. So it is gradually becoming desert. The whole world will be desert.
No production. Suffer. Make your scientific research, godless. All rascals, full of rascals... [horn beeping] [break] There is a proposal.
You know that? Just see how great rascals they are. They'll import water. Gurukṛpā: They have done that in California. They have piped water into the desert and made it the most fertile place. Prabhupāda: Yes.
What is desert? Desert means no water. There is no rain. Gargamuni: In Israel, which is a desert, they are exporting food all over the world. Prabhupāda: Every land will be fertile and usable if there is water. That's all.
They are making scientific research. Satsvarūpa: So if they can bring water by pipe, then they don't need yajña.
Prabhupāda: That is also another foolishness. How much water he'll carry by pipe? [aside:] Where is pole? Take water from God. That is sufficient. Navadit tarims ca[?].
