<span class="link">[[Vanisource:Room Conversation -- June 24, 1976, New Vrindaban|Room Conversation -- June 24, 1976, New Vrindaban]]: </span><div class="text"><p style="display: inline;">Kulādri: Prabhupāda? They say, "Why you worry so much about death? We are living. We are enjoying life. Why do you worry about death?"</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Because we are intelligent. I love you. Therefore you'll die and you'll become a dog, so I am taking sympathy on you, that "Don't become a dog." Every human being is anxious. The example is given just like a child flying kite and is going this way, this way, on the roof. Now on the edge of the roof, so one gentleman standing, "Hey, you'll fall down." That is his duty. He says, "Why you are checking me?" (laughter) "Why you are checking me?" "Because I am human being. You are foolish boy. Therefore I am checking you." That is natural. Even a child is..., or the boy is not his son, but because he is a gentleman, he wants to give him some protection. It is the duty of gentleman. Therefore Caitanya Mahāprabhu said to the Indians that "You become perfect and go and give this knowledge to the rest of the world. They are all rascals." </p>

:janma sārthaka kari' kara para-upakāra
:([[Vanisource:CC Adi 9.41|CC Adi 9.41]])
<p>It is para-upakāra, humanitarian. You may say, "Why do you bother?" But as a human being, I bother. Every human being will do that. Kṛṣṇa comes, bothering Himself. Yadā yadā hi dharmasya glānir bhavati bhārata ([[Vanisource:BG 4.7|BG 4.7]]). "When these have become rascals, fools, I come, again advise them." So those who are servants of God, they are also doing the same thing, on behalf of God. Their position is therefore exalted. They should be worshiped as God because they are doing the work of God. They are not cheating public. </p>

<p>Prabhupāda: So improve this farming very nicely. So the cows, they should be given as much as possible pasturing. If you simply drink little milk, and little vegetables, that will supply all vitamins. You do not require to take vitamin pills. No, there is no need. It has got all the vitamins. That is admitted. Vitamin A, D, in milk, they say so. And fruits, vitamin C. In this way, in fruits, vegetables, grains, milk, all vitamins are there.</p>
<p>Kulaśekhara: Śrīla Prabhupāda, if you take milk in other forms, like if you eat cheese, if you take curd or cheese, is it the same as drinking milk or... ?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes. Any milk preparation. And if you have got enough milk, then keep it as ghee and open restaurant in the city. Give them nice samosā, kachorī. So in exchange you get money. You require little money, so that money will help you. Actually, in India before these British, the poorer class of men, they were simply keeping say a dozen of cows, and that was their means of livelihood, that's all. From the milk they'll eat the, that, little milk, then yogurt, then..., what is called? It is another milk?</p>
<p>Devotees: Casein? Curd? Cheese?</p>
<p>Viśākhā: Buttermilk.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Buttermilk, yes. And in this way, after drinking and eating so many things, whatever balance is there, churn it and they get ghee, and that ghee is kept in stock. On the market day, they go to the city and sell it. You'll find in Vṛndāvana, so many cultivators, they have brought ghee. So the inhabitants of the city, town, they require ghee, they purchase, and with that money they get some necessities, just like some oil or some spices, salt, like this, which is not available. In this way...</p>
<p>Hari-śauri: How is it they are so keen on buffalo milk in India?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Hmm?</p>
<p>Hari-śauri: The Indians, they seem to prefer buffalo milk to cow milk.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No, cow milk is not available, therefore buffalo milk contains more fat. But milk means cow's milk. What is the daily milk?</p>
<p>Kīrtanānanda: About a thousand pounds.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Those who are meat-eaters, why don't you inform them, when a cow dies, that "You can take it."</p>
<p>Kīrtanānanda: That would be illegal.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Why? Legal, illegal, that is their whims.</p>
<p>Devotee: Hmm. That's a fact.</p>
<p>Kīrtanānanda: But that will get us in trouble.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No, no. That is, they can give us. They are in power, they can do that. But legally...</p>
<p>Kīrtanānanda: Yes, you are right. If they want to eat, let them take the dead cow.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: They take it. Free, they get without any price. They get the skin, they get flesh. Let them eat. We are not going to charge for the... You take it. Why maintain slaughterhouse? Take this.</p>
