The devoted guru accepts bodily decline with detachment while wisely managing health through proper treatment and surrender.Listen — Srila Prabhupada Uvaca
Bhakti-cāru: [Transl. He attacked them. I was talking to him and he said] "I kick them on their face." "I literally kick them on their face." [Transl. Whatever they have, all their points by which they want to prove their theory of evolution, by those same points he exposed their mistakes. And prasāda was also very nice. There were two kinds of subjis, dāl-purīs, normal purīs and rubdi.] Prabhupāda: [Transl. Are they still here or gone?] Bhakti-cāru: [Transl. Śrīla Prabhupāda? Yes, they will stay here today. We are hoping more people will come tomorrow.] Prabhupāda: [Transl. Kavirāja prepared some medicine.] Bhakti-cāru: [Transl. Yes Śrīla Prabhupāda. It is ready. Would you take it? Pisimā was also telling me about that medicine today. Makara-dhvaja.] Prabhupāda: [Transl. Makara-dhvaja can be taken.] Bhakti-cāru: [Transl. Can be taken. So should I tell Banamāli Babu to come one day? Should I bring him?] Prabhupāda: [Transl. Go and tell him that all medicines are stopped. You have prepared makara-dhvaja, can it be given now or not?]
Bhakti-cāru: [Transl. This has to be taken once a week. Only once a week.]
Prabhupāda: [Transl. So you come and see, and if you feel satisfied then start the medicine.]
Bhakti-cāru: [Transl. Yes Śrīla Prabhupāda. Tomorrow morning I will go to his place…]
Prabhupāda: [Transl. Tell him like this.]
Bhakti-cāru: [Transl. Yes Śrīla Prabhupāda. That you didn't pass stool yesterday, do you feel any discomfort?]
Prabhupāda: [Transl. No, no. Discomfort is no taste in the mouth. That's all.]
