Rāmeśvara: In modern warfare it's . . .
Prabhupāda: Why not? Yes. But they, they are so rascals, they throw bomb anywhere.
Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Especially atom bombs.
Prabhupāda: But one thing is that because civilians are also responsible for declaring war, because the parliament is the representation of the people . . .
Puṣṭa Kṛṣṇa: Karma.
Prabhupāda: Therefore, now the war is between people to people, nation to nation. They support with men and money. So therefore they are also killed by nature's law. (break)
Rāmeśvara: Prabhupāda, in the Ādi-līlā you wrote that the Communist movement is greater than the capitalist movement because there are more śūdras than vaiśyas, so that in a war between Communism and capitalism, the Communists would win.
Prabhupāda: Naturally. They are in greater number.
Rāmeśvara: But these modern wars are fought with missiles and bombs more than armies.
Prabhupāda: Yes. Formerly, also, there were brahmāstra, fire, firearms, brahmāstra. (break) . . .problems that we are facing, they were also in the past under different name, different forms. (break)
Nalinī-kānta: . . .Communists win, that will not stop our preaching?
Prabhupāda: Hmm?
Nalinī-kānta: They do not like to hear of God.
Rāmeśvara: You wrote that if the Communists are victorious, they would destroy whatever is left of the culture.
Prabhupāda: Yes. Victory for the Communists means the whole human culture is lost.
Ajāta-śatru: Does it mean that they will also attack the Kṛṣṇa consciousness?
Prabhupāda: Yes, they have already begun. They are not passing our temple in Bombay.
Nalinī-kānta: If after the war the preaching will be still good, that means the Communists will not be victorious.
Prabhupāda: Yes.
