<span class="link">[[Vanisource:Morning Walk -- June 30, 1975, Denver|Morning Walk -- June 30, 1975, Denver]]: </span><div class="text"><p style="display: inline;">Prabhupāda: Nārada Muni was cursed, accepted one curse. And Dakṣa-rāja said that "I curse you that you will stay anywhere." So he said, "Yes, that is very good for me." (laughs) He could curse, counter, but he accepted, "Yes, it is a very good curse. I shall not stay anywhere." "You have spoiled my children to become mendicant, go back to home, back to Godhead. They did not enjoy this material world. You are so heinous," like that. Our students' parents, they are also thinking, "What is this nonsense, no meat-eating, no illicit sex? The enjoyment of life, everything is spoiled. They are becoming sannyāsī." So they are cursing me.</p>
<p>Satsvarūpa: They say you must have hypnotized us to give this up.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Dr. Judah, what is that, charmistic?</p>
<p>Brahmānanda: Charismic.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Charismatic.</p>
<p>Brahmānanda: Charismatic, yes.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: (laughs) He also said. Yes, they are thinking it is hypnotism. "All young men, their life is for this material enjoyment, and they are giving up everything and chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa? What is this?"</p>
<p>Brahmānanda: In Māyāpur there is one astrologer and he...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Who is that astro...?</p>
<p>Brahmānanda: I don't know his name. He lives in..., across, on the other side there, where the bank is.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Oh, Bamanpukur.</p>
<p>Brahmānanda: No, on the other side of the...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Navadvipa?</p>
<p>Brahmānanda: No, on the..., where the railway is.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Oh, Svarūp Gañj.</p>
<p>Brahmānanda: Yes, Svarūp Gañj. So he likes our movement very much, and he said that, he told one of our devotees that you were the most powerful personality in the world. And he has given very accurate astrology readings to some of our devotees.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: And he was, what he has told about me?</p>
<p>Brahmānanda: That you are the most powerful personality in the world.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: If I am representative of Kṛṣṇa, then I must be the most powerful. Kṛṣṇa has got..., all omnipotent. (laughs) Most powerful, the most my Godbrothers. That is my credit. They are thinking like that, "This man became most powerful than all of us. (Still laughing) He was a gṛhastha." They used to say all the gṛhasthas, paca-gṛhastha. Paca means decomposed. What Bon Mahārāja is doing now?</p>
<p>Satsvarūpa: I don't know up to date. I just know a few weeks ago he was in Canada.</p>
<p>Brahmānanda: When our devotees go to see a professor after Bon Mahārāja has spoken with him, the professors don't want to take our books. They make complaints that our books are too sectarian, they're not scholarly, they're not..., in this way.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: He is making that poison.</p>
<p>Brahmānanda: Yeah, he is giving some propaganda.</p>
<p>Satsvarūpa: The idea that he is more scholarly and more academic.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: These rascals will not, "Where is your book?"</p>
<p>Satsvarūpa: He's just got that one book, and he doesn't have that anymore.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: He has sold all?</p>
<p>Satsvarūpa: I think so. I never see it anywhere in any libraries.</p>
<p>Brahmānanda: He wanted to send some to America. (break)</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: ...by his propaganda, they are talking like that?</p>
<p>Brahmānanda: Well, one thing, there was one debate, and he was there, and our men were there too. And he was representing Kṛṣṇa consciousness.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Who?</p>
<p>Brahmānanda: Swami Bon.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: How?</p>
<p>Satsvarūpa: It was an interreligion meeting, and there were representatives from different Christian..., and he was there for Gauḍīya Vaiṣṇavism or Kṛṣṇa consciousness. But he didn't give any strong argument; he just presented it as if it were another way.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: What is that way?</p>
