Kīrtanānanda: Deer.
Prabhupāda: Deer only.
Kīrtanānanda: Few fox.
Prabhupāda: Fox also. And fox, they come to our temple?
Kīrtanānanda: No.
Prabhupāda: No. Fox, they eat men? No.
Kīrtanānanda: Not usually. Only if they get sick, rabies, then they'll attack. They eat rabbits and rodents.
Prabhupāda: Deer also?
Kīrtanānanda: Deer are vegetarian, they eat grain.
Prabhupāda: No.
Devotee (1): Fox will eat the deer?
Kīrtanānanda: Oh, I don't think.
Devotee (1): Saw a lynx, a big cat.
Prabhupāda: Eh?
Devotee (1): A lynx, a small cat.
Kīrtanānanda: Something like a little wildcat.
Prabhupāda: They eat, they're eaten by the fox?
Kīrtanānanda: They'll eat the fox. They're very rare though.
Prabhupāda: Jīvo jīvasya jīvanam.
- ahastāni sahastānām
- apadāni catuṣ-padām
- phalgūni tatra mahatāṁ
- jīvo jīvasya jīvanam
The handless animal is the food for the animal with hands. This is the beginning of life. Uncivilized man eats the animals. Apadāni catuṣ-padām: these grass, plants, they are for the catuṣ-padām, four-legged. Cows, deer, goats, they eat. And those who are weak, they are for the strong. In this way, this is the nature's way. Jīvo jīvasya jīvanam. One life, a living entity is food for another. (dogs barking) Immigration department. (laughter) We have got passport. (laughter) That's all right.
Kīrtanānanda: This is a dog's business.
Prabhupāda: Dog's business. Without any fault, they'll chastise. We have no fault, still they are chastising. Durlabhaṁ mānuṣaṁ janma. You have got this independence. Little independence, more than the animals.
