<span class="link">[[Vanisource:Evening Darsana -- August 11, 1976, Tehran|Evening Darsana -- August 11, 1976, Tehran]]: </span><div class="text"><p style="display: inline;">Jñānagamya: It is stated in the Bhāgavatam that once in every structure of the universe, that every living entity gets the opportunity to have guru and Kṛṣṇa and very, very nice situation. He gets that opportunity.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: That I am speaking, that this is the only chance of Kṛṣṇa, guru, and if he neglects this chance, then kanwan sthito'mi ga(?). What is the loss more than that? We are simply calculating loss and gain. Just imagine what is the loss by misusing this human form of... If you want to spoil this life under the influence of misleaders, you can do it. But if we prefer to take the sense of following leadership of Kṛṣṇa, then our life is successful. Mām ekaṁ śaraṇaṁ vraja. (indistinct) That comes mām ekam, ekam—then your life is successful. Ahaṁ tvāṁ sarva-pāpebhyo mokṣayiṣyāmi ([[Vanisource:BG 18.66|BG 18.66]]): "I'll give you protection in all respects." So if we don't take this opportunity, then we are cutting our own throat. Do it. You can do it. Who can save you?</p>
<p>Jñānagamya: You have said it's like two airplanes. If an airplane is in trouble, no other airplane can help.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No, God can help. Other airplane cannot help. If God likes, He can save you.</p>
<p>Hari-śauri: You were saying that if one is intelligent he can just accept the father's instruction, and he knows it will be good. But most people have such bad experience that every time they've accepted instruction, they've just been cheated, that they're a little slow to...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: What is it? </p>
<p>Dayānanda: Watermelon.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No, you said cheated? What is that?</p>
<p>Hari-śauri: Yes. You were saying that by intelligence one can just accept what the father says will be good for him and he'll do it, but most people have such a bad experience in the material world, they get cheated so often...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: That is his misfortune, if the father is cheating him. So that means he's most unfortunate. Father is not expected to cheat the son, but if he's cheated by the father, then he must accept himself as the most unfortunate cheated in the world. Then there is no help. Because he's so unfortunate that he's under the care of a cheater father, then what can be done? Nobody expects that father will cheat. And nowadays it is coming. Mother is cheating, mother is killing, father is cheating. Yes. It is Kali-yuga.</p>
