<span class="link">[[Vanisource:Morning Walk -- March 11, 1975, London|Morning Walk -- March 11, 1975, London]]: </span><div class="text"><p style="display: inline;">Devotee (1): Śrīla Prabhupāda, will the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement will take over the world eventually?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Huh?</p>
<p>Devotee (1): Is going to take over the world eventually some time during the Kali-yuga, in this Kali-yuga?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No, that is not possible, because only the fortunate persons will take.</p>
<p>Devotee (1): I mean, but will the power of the kṣatriyas will be in the hands of the Kṛṣṇa conscious persons sometime during this Kali-yuga?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Provided you become very expert to preach. Unless you preach, how they will take? (break)</p>
<p>Puṣṭa Kṛṣṇa: Towards the end of the Kali-yuga isn't there a description in the Bhāgavatam that one will not be able to see the sun or the moon?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: During the end of Kali-yuga?</p>
<p>Puṣṭa Kṛṣṇa: Yes. Because of the impiety. So there will be no vegetation. Is that description in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: I don't think. (break) ...it is stated?</p>
<p>Puṣṭa Kṛṣṇa: Well, I had heard—of course, I'm not certain of the source—that because of impiety the sun and the moon, people would not be able to see. So there would be no vegetation. And without vegetation, even animals cannot live. So eventually they would take to eating their own children. Is this what takes place?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes, there will be no foodstuff at the end of... That is stated. No milk, no food grains, no fruits, no whatever. Especially food grains.</p>
<p>Devotee (2): There will be some devotees left at the end of Kali-yuga?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes, only the devotees will be left. All others... (break) (loud noise of car screeching.) ...are not very neat and clean. (chuckles) Yes. That means condition is not very good. And it is sound.</p>
<p>Brahmānanda: Not in proper repair.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes.</p>
<p>Puṣṭa Kṛṣṇa: We had an engagement last night at a technical school after your lecture, and inside the entrance of the technical school in a big glass case they had a big engine from a car, when you walk into the technical school. Mostly Indians, young boys.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Oh, foreigners.</p>
<p>Puṣṭa Kṛṣṇa: Yes. (break) So they were very disrespectful actually. But when we started kīrtana, the whole atmosphere changed. Do you think that the young Indian boys in the future, they will become anywhere near as pious as their parents?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Why do you take India? We are talking of the whole world. There is no question of India, Europe, America. (break)</p>
<p>Brahmānanda: ...Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam about the kirātas and so on. That means we can go to any community in the world...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Oh, yes.</p>
<p>Brahmānanda: ...and preach, and some will join.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes. That is actually happening.</p>
<p>Devotee (1): Prabhupāda, has there been an incarnation of Kṛṣṇa outside India, somewhere else in another part of the world? Or does He always comes in India?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes. Śaktyāveṣa avatāra, somebody empowered by Him, not Kṛṣṇa Himself. Just like Christ. Christ is also empowered incarnation. Śaktyāveṣa avatāra. Mohammed is also. Anyone who is preaching about God is empowered incarnation. Kṛṣṇa-śakti vinā nāhi kṛṣṇa nāma-pracāra. That is there in the Caitanya-caritāmṛta. (break)</p>
<p>Devotee (2): ...that your initiated disciples had some relationship with Lord Caitanya when He was on this earth?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Everyone has relationship, all living entities.</p>
<p>Brahmānanda: He is Viśvambhara, means the maintainer of all living entities.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes. Prince of Wales. Prince of Wales, I think this, I think he is dead now. King Edward, I mean to say, George's elder brother? No, not George's. George VI. Is there an elder brother? Edward? When he was Prince of Wales he was actually to be the emperor, or King of England. But he married one common girl, and therefore he was refused. So he, as Prince of Wales, he went to India. And when he saw the bright sunshine, he was surprised. (laughter) Yes.</p>
<p>Brahmānanda: He had never seen.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: He, or before him, another prince. Because that Prince of... We were at that time children. So I think King George V, when he was Prince of Wales.</p>
<p>Brahmānanda: Oh, when he came to Calcutta?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes. I have seen. We were school children at that time. So on the two sides of the road, our first place was, the king, queen passed, we saw. We were given a flag. (laughter) "Jaya Rāja, Rājeśvara." We were... And very good tiffin was supplied. Two samosa, two kachori, two sandeśa, and one big tangerine. Twice I saw. Once when he entered Calcutta, and again, one day, when there was a parade of military... military parade. So both days we were invited, and we saw the king. (break)</p>
<p>Brahmānanda: ...Calcutta, on the Maidan, there's that big building, that big memorial. Is that...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Oh, Victoria Memorial.</p>
<p>Brahmānanda: That was built for, the king when he was coming?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No, that was built in memory of Victoria. It was done, imitating the Taj Mahal. It took twenty years. Sir Rajendranath Mukherjee of Martin Company, he took the contract. And after finishing, he got this title, "Sir." And when it was being constructed, I went to the top by crossing the scaffolding.</p>
<p>Brahmānanda: So you must have been very brave.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes, I am still brave. (laughter) Otherwise how could I come alone to preach Kṛṣṇa consciousness? I am still brave.</p>
<p>Devotees: Jaya, Śrīla Prabhupāda!</p>
