<span class="link">[[Vanisource:Lecture at Art Gallery -- Auckland, April 16, 1972|Lecture at Art Gallery -- Auckland, April 16, 1972]]: </span><div class="text"><p style="display: inline;">Woman: ...comment on the coming so-called revolution, or the second coming that is being prophesized by various people for the past fifty-odd years? Do you have any thought on this? Do you expect it?</p>
<p>Devotee: Second coming of who?</p>
<p>Woman: The second of either Christ or a total changeover in the evolution of this planet.</p>
<p>Devotee: Here it is. (laughter)</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: What is that?</p>
<p>Devotee: Hare Kṛṣṇa. She says do you have any views that for the past fifty or hundred years people have been predicting that there is going to be like a second coming or a spiritual changeover which will have an effect on the whole planet.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: So that is being done now.</p>
<p>Woman: There's a time, they say, the late 1980's or the 1990's, there is to be...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes, the signs are like that. People are taking this Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement very rapidly all over the world.</p>
<p>Woman: But it's just the general way.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: So it is not very astonishing if by 1980 there are majority population, chant Hare Kṛṣṇa and dance. There is no... Because it is growing. Now, here is a girl, my disciple. His (her) original name was Janne. Now he (she) is devotee. And she was dancing in a different way. Now she is dancing Kṛṣṇa conscious. She was a very reputed artist, you know, in Australia. Now she has given that. She was earning hundreds and thousands of dollars, but she has given up everything. Now she is Jagat-tarani: she is delivering the world by dancing with Kṛṣṇa consciousness. So that is quite possible. It is very simple. Therefore there is every possibility. Paraṁ dṛṣṭvā nivartate ([[Vanisource:BG 2.59 (1972)|BG 2.59]]). Paraṁ dṛṣṭvā nivartate. Paraṁ dṛṣṭvā, when one sees better thing, he gives up the inferior thing. That is nature. So this Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is better engagement of life. So as soon as one understands this philosophy, he gives up the lower engagement and comes to this Kṛṣṇa consciousness.</p>
