Prabhupāda: . . . create violence out of your own wish, that is not God's wish. Just like in modern days they are declaring war whimsically, by the political ambition. That is not God's wish. That is not God's wish.

Indian man (5): But God knows before creating jīvas(?) and everything that they will start wars and take . . .

Prabhupāda: Yes, even God knows, that is your creation.

Indian man (5): But why should He create them in the first instance?

Prabhupāda: That is . . .

Indian man (5): Knowing beforehand that they will . . .

Prabhupāda: That you will not understand unless you surrender to Kṛṣṇa. You are asking this question for the last so many years, and . . .

Indian man (5): Ah, I have surrendered unto you. Now you explain this mystery.

Prabhupāda: I am repeatedly saying that God does not create anything. Just like the same example.

Indian man (5): He has created this universe.

Prabhupāda: No, no, no, no. You created. Why do you blame?

Indian man (5): How I was created . . . I created this universe?

Prabhupāda: Yes, yes. So you were created to serve God, but you do not serve God. You want sense gratification. That is your fault.

Indian man (5): He's self-sufficient. He doesn't need service.

Prabhupāda: No, no. Why you are repeating that question like a fool? (laughter) I have answered this. If you disturb in that way, don't question. I have already . . . that you created everything.

Indian man (5): Yes.

Prabhupāda: Yes. Just like . . .

Indian man (5): You say He has not created. Now you say He has created . . .

Prabhupāda: No, He . . .

Indian man (5): Contradicting yourself.

Prabhupāda: Then because . . .

Dr. Patel: (Gujarati)

Indian man (5): Sorry about that.

Prabhupāda: Let me explain it. Let me explain it. Suppose you are ordered by the judge that you should be hanged. So it is certainly his creation, your hanging. But is the judge enemy of you that he has ordered you to be hanged? You have created such thing that you should be hanged. This is the answer. (break) . . . situation that you must be hanged. But the order must come from the judge. So externally the judge is hanging you. But actually he's not hanging you. You are hanging yourself. This is the way. (break) . . . you are hanged, there is no choice. Is it not? But still, you created the position of being hanged. That is the position. When the judge has ordered that "He should be hanged," there is no more choice. But who has created this situation?
