Prabhupāda: So what was the Vinoba Bhave's statement published in the paper?

Girirāja: That he's not going to give any more public lectures and he's not going to give any more advice to any institutions.

Prabhupāda: But now he's thinking that it is useless. Otherwise why he would say like that? And ''mokṣa''? He's going to try for ''mokṣa''?

Girirāja: Yes. He's saying that by reducing these activities he wants to get ''mokṣa''.

Prabhupāda: So our point is that if he was not on the platform of ''mokṣa'', liberation, why did he waste his time by spoiling himself and for spoiling others? Now he has come to his senses, that is good, but it is to be understood that he simply spoiled his time and spoiled others' career by misleading them. Thus, without being liberated, nobody can guide anyone. That is useless. That is ''andhā yathāndhair upanīyamānāḥ'' ([[Vanisource:SB 7.5.31|SB 7.5.31]]). If you have no eyes, then how can you lead others? If you are blind and they are blind, then what is the use of becoming their leaders? Actually all the so-called leaders and scholars, they are blind themselves, and they have become big, big leader. That is the misfortune of the present life. And therefore our proposition is you take direction from Kṛṣṇa and His representative. That's all. That will help you. Try to understand this point. Our system, ''paramparā'' system, is that I am just like disciple of Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī. I don't say that I am liberated. I am conditioned. But because I am following the instruction of Bhaktisiddhānta, I'm liberated. This is the distinction between conditioned and liberated. When one is under the direction of a liberated person . . . the same thing: electricity. The copper is not electricity, but when it is charged with electricity, if it is touched, that is electricity. And similarly, this ''paramparā'' system, the electricity is going. If you cut the ''paramparā'' system, then there is no electricity. Therefore it is stressed so much: ''sa kāleneha mahatā yogo naṣṭaḥ parantapa'' ([[Vanisource:BG 4.2 (1972)|BG 4.2]]). The electricity is lost. These people, they do not know. Now, at the fag end of life, they are thinking, if intelligent person, that "What I have done actually?" If one has sense, he should come to this understanding. By cutting some . . . what is that? Dead trees? The civil disobedience began by cutting dead trees. Is it not? Vinoba Bhave, he began his leadership forty years ago by cutting . . . Gandhi also, civil disobedience. So this kind of leadership might have been little enthusiasm for the time being, but actually what people gain by that, such leadership?</p>
