<p>French devotee (2): If a devotee step on a ant by mistake, the ant...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: You should be careful. Why should you commit mistake? But if unconsciously, by mistake it is done, that is another thing.</p>
<p>Brahmānanda: He wants to know does the ant receive benefit?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No. Then he will be lenient to kill them to give them benefit. (laughter) He'll be so...</p>
<p>Brahmānanda: Like they say "mercy killing," that "This is good for you. I will kill you and it is good for you."</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes. You should always think that you are responsible for its killing. But it may be Kṛṣṇa may excuse you. That is another thing. Consciously you cannot kill. (break)</p>
