<span class="link">[[Vanisource:Room Conversation -- September 6, 1976, Vrndavana|Room Conversation -- September 6, 1976, Vrndavana]]: </span><div class="text"><p style="display: inline;">Akṣayānanda: So one question I wanted to ask you in this connection, is that this Vinobha, fasting until death, until cow slaughter is stopped. So if he dies then he is guilty of murder. Is it correct. And if he's a brāhmaṇa, he is guilty of brahma-hatya. So by this fasting he is committing a greater sin than the actual killing of the cows.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: You are right.</p>
<p>Akṣayānanda: And what is the gain?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: And what he'll get it? Does he think that by his dying of starvation this cow-killing will be stopped? That is his foolishness.</p>
<p>Akṣayānanda: He will die and it will go on.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes, that is his foolishness.</p>
<p>Akṣayānanda: And he does not know where he will go next.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Just see, he is (Hindi), very big man, and he's such a rascal. He has no sense what he is doing.</p>
<p>Akṣayānanda: Plainly you have described in the Gītā. You have described plainly in the Gītā. No one else has done that. Cinmayananda's, this, that rascal, no one has. No one has explained that. They don't know.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No, anyone who is not in our disciplic succession, he's not a human being. Cinmayananda, Vivekananda, this-ānanda, they simply... Ānanda, there is no ānanda. All nirānanda. What Cinmayananda? He is supposed to be very big sannyāsī, what he has done?</p>
<p>Akṣayānanda: What has he done? He advertised in the paper for young boys.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: There is one gentleman, Sadajivatra in Bombay. You know him?</p>
<p>Akṣayānanda: Sadaji Mahatma?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Sadajivatra.</p>
<p>Akṣayānanda: Oh yes.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: (indistinct) proprietor.</p>
<p>Akṣayānanda: I know of him.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: He is very intelligent. He has said to a friend, that Bhaktivedanta Swami (Hindi) Kāla means, that he has made all other so-called sannyāsīs, yogis, black-faced.</p>
<p>Akṣayānanda: (laughs) Jaya. He is intelligent.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Bhaktivedanta Swami sata mukala.(?)</p>
<p>Akṣayānanda: It's true. It's true.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Now here is a big sannyāsī, Akhandanandan, or Bon Maharaja. They are supposed to be big, big sannyāsī.</p>
<p>Akṣayānanda: I do not know what Akhandanandan does.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Anyway, (indistinct) And this Anandamaya. Actually I am not proud, but what they have done in comparison to me?</p>
<p>Akṣayānanda: Yes, they've done nothing.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: He has said sata mukala.</p>
<p>Akṣayānanda: Mukala.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Kāla. Kāla means lajjita. Black face. Everyone should be ashamed. They may be envious on account of their failure, but if you come to the actual valuation, sata mukala. That's a fact.</p>
