<span class="link">[[Vanisource:Morning Walk -- (World War III) -- April 4, 1975, Mayapur|Morning Walk -- (World War III) -- April 4, 1975, Mayapur]]: </span><div class="text"><p style="display: inline;">Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Will this war spread to many different countries and continents?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: The actual war will be between America and Russia.</p>
<p>Rūpānuga: What about British devotees, British citizens? Would the British be asked to leave, British citizens? Commonwealth citizens?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Britishers are now finished. They have no importance.</p>
<p>Pañcadraviḍa: He means if British devotees came to India, would they be asked to leave.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No, no, I mean to say... I am speaking of politics. Devotees are the same... Oh, British citizens...? They may...</p>
<p>Rūpānuga: You say the Americans might have to leave. What about the British?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: But they, generally, during wartime...</p>
<p>Viṣṇujana: Everyone.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: ...they ask all foreigners.</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Oh, I see.</p>
<p>Jayapatāka: During the last war, the Christian Mission of Krishnanagar, they had many Italian priests also, but the government gave them permission to stay, although India was at war with Italians.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: In the missionary consideration, they can do that.</p>
<p>Jayādvaita: What will be the position with the Chinese if the Russians and Americans fight?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Well I am not a politician. (laughter) China does not war, not want war. They want to...</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Develop.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Construct.</p>
<p>Rūpānuga: They're not ready.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes. They are not very much interested in war.</p>
<p>Paramahaṁsa: Śrīla Prabhupāda, you said that this war will destroy the demonic civilization.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes.</p>
<p>Paramahaṁsa: Does that mean that it'll destroy all the cities and all the industries?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: War means destruction of all cities. That is natural. You have got experience in Europe so many times.</p>
<p>Haṁsadūta: Cities and industries.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Eh?</p>
<p>Haṁsadūta: Cities and industries.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes, that is the main target.</p>
<p>Haṁsadūta: Nobody's interested in a farm. (break)</p>
<p>Jayādvaita: ...endeavor, pure devotees are automatically expert in politics, economics, everything.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Eh?</p>
<p>Jayādvaita: Without separate endeavor, a pure devotee is automatically expert in everything.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes.</p>
<p>Jayādvaita: Politics, economics.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes.</p>
<p>Jayādvaita: Sociology.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yasmin vijñāte sarvam evaṁ vijñātaṁ bhavanti. If you know Kṛṣṇa, then you understand everything. That is the Vedic injunction. Yasmin vijñāte. If you simply understand Kṛṣṇa... In Bhagavad-gītā, it is also said that "There will be no more anything to understand." In the Ninth Chapter? What is that verse? Can anyone say?</p>
<p>Jayādvaita: The Fifteenth Chapter.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Avaśiṣyate. Jñātavyam avaśiṣyate. You cannot...?</p>
<p>Santoṣa: Yaj jñātvā...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: ...cannot recite, the whole verse?</p>
<p>Santoṣa: Yaj jñātvā neha bhūyo 'nyaj.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: That is the second line. First line?</p>
<p>Santoṣa: Sa evaṁ guhyatamaṁ vakṣyāmy aśeṣataḥ.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Vakṣyāmy... Yes, that is the verse. Yaj jñātvā anyaj jñātavyam na avaśiṣyate. Kṛṣṇa consciousness is such a great science that if one becomes expert, then he knows everything.</p>
