Morning Walk -- June 7, 1975, Honolulu:

Prabhupāda: ...how they are beautiful.

Devotee: Yes.

Prabhupāda: Hawaii birds? No. (break)...all these birds?

Devotee: I don't know the name. Do you know their names?

Devotee: No.

Prabhupāda: I think it is Bul buli.(?)

Devotee: I don't know their names.

Paramahaṁsa: They have those in India?

Prabhupāda: Not this red, but bluish color.

Paramahaṁsa: Oh.

Prabhupāda: But of the same kind, having bunch of hair. (break) ...three hundred varieties of birds. How many one has seen? One million. Pakṣiṇam dāsa-lakṣakam. Dāsa-lakṣakam means one million. (break) ...varieties of life, so many varieties of planets, sky, the sea, ocean, the mountains, the rivers, and they want to compete with God. Just see their foolishness. (laughs) Controlling nature, is there... Eh? Bali-mardana? Scientists they want to control nature.

Bali-mardana: Yes, they try to make it rain or stop the rain. They try different experiments.

Prabhupāda: Why not death? Stop death.

Bali-mardana: Yes, they are trying that also. They are not succeeding.

Prabhupāda: That is the misfortune.
