<span class="link">[[Vanisource:Morning Walk -- June 2, 1974, Geneva|Morning Walk -- June 2, 1974, Geneva]]: </span><div class="text"><p style="display: inline;">Prabhupāda: Yes. Their developed consciousness is being used for sense gratification. That's all. They have taken up, sense gratification is the highest aim of life. Hedonism. What is that hedonism?</p>
<p>Karandhara: Hedonism means to eat, sleep and be merry.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: That's all.</p>
<p>Yogeśvara: When I was in school, I read that when the British went to Africa to colonize, the first thing they did... In the north there was a tribe called the Ashanti tribe. And the symbol of religion was an axe. Whoever possessed that axe was a leader. So the first thing they did was to import thousands and thousands of axes and they distributed them to everyone. In this way, they destroyed the religious sentiment and then introduced their own system.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Who first started this colonization? Britishers or the Spaniards?</p>
<p>Yogeśvara: It was a Britisher.</p>
<p>Karandhara: Spaniards were, I think Portuguese.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Portuguese. Because they had very small land.</p>
<p>Karandhara: They were navigators.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: So find out some place.</p>
<p>Bhagavān: The boy didn't realize the potency of your answer last night. He was asking how to fight fascism, and you were saying by chanting and dancing. So factually, by setting the example is the greatest way to fight all these maladies.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Māyā. Māyā. Yes, we are fighting with this Māyic civilization.</p>
<p>Bhagavān: Because they can fight with guns, but afterwards neither one of them knows how to set an exemplary life. So they just keep fighting with guns.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: With gun or without, gun, you will die. The fascist will die and the other party also will die. Gun or without gun, he cannot exist. But our fight is to stop death. Tyaktvā dehaṁ punar janma naiti mām eti ([[Vanisource:BG 4.9|BG 4.9]]). Our fight is for this purpose, no more death. This is real fight. Your, what is your fight? You may save yourself for two years or three years or ten years, but you have to die. You have no such program not to die. But here is a program, no more death.</p>
<p>Yogeśvara: They have one program. They are freezing bodies.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: (laughs) That is another nonsense.</p>
<p>Yogeśvara: Then they will defrost them in fifty or one hundred years.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: All future programs.</p>
<p>Nitāi: They have never done that, have they?</p>
<p>Yogeśvara: Well, there are people in the refrigerator now. There are people who have voluntarily put themselves in a big block of ice. They were told before they went inside that they would be defrosted in about fifty years.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Then what he will do? (laughing)</p>
<p>Bhagavān: They should take a few out now and see if it worked.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No, that can be done. The yogic process. It is called kumbhaka. Samādhi. You stop your breathing, and you can keep yourself for thousands of years. That is the kumbhaka. But this art is known by the frogs also.</p>
<p>Yogeśvara: By the frogs?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes. Automatically... There was news that in the coal mine all of a sudden a frog came out and it was estimated that... Because the coal is formed by the ruins. So when there was ruins, at least ten thousand years ago, during the ruins, the frog was encaged. And it formed coal. Still he was living. That means he lived at least for ten thousand years. So Brahmā lives for ten millions of years. So what is the... They are also condemned. Ā-brahma-bhuvanāl lokāḥ punar āvartinaḥ ([[Vanisource:BG 8.16|BG 8.16]]). Kṛṣṇa says, "What is the use of going to Brahma-loka. Even if you live for millions of years, you will have to die." Yad gatvā na nivartante tad dhāma paramaṁ mama: ([[Vanisource:BG 15.6|BG 15.6]]) "But if you come to Me, you will never have to die." Our struggle is for that purpose. Antavat tu phalaṁ teṣāṁ tad bhavaty alpa-medhasām ([[Vanisource:BG 7.23|BG 7.23]]). for these things, those who are trying, they are less intelligent.</p>
