Just like my Guru Mahārāja did not travel all over the world, so I have got double energy than him. So you must triple energy, four times energy than me. Then actually disciple. My Godbrothers are envious because they could not do. They could not do even half of Guru Mahārāja's work, and I am doing ten times. So therefore they are envious.

Room Conversation -- April 2, 1972, Sydney:

Devotee (3): Karate is the art of hitting your nerve points. You can paralyze people with it. Just with one finger hitting on a certain nerve junction, you can paralyze a person.

Devotee (1): They do. They show movies of one man who has killed his nerves in the hand, and a bull will be running like this, and he can put his hand through the bull and grab the heart. They're like that. They show movies like that. They develop like that.

Śyāmasundara: So much wasted effort. (pause)

Prabhupāda: You have kept there some other razor?

Nanda-kumāra: I have put yours back. Yours was in a bag I could not find immediately, so I put another one there, and now I've changed it back again. (break)

Upendra: . . . at least half of the energy that you have to preach.

Prabhupāda: Hmm?

Upendra: We may develop at least maybe half of your energy to continuously preach someday?

Prabhupāda: Continuously?

Śyāmasundara: He says that someday he hopes that the devotees, your disciples, may acquire half of the energy that you have for preaching.

Prabhupāda: Why not full, or double? You may have doubled.

Upendra: It's inconceivable.

Prabhupāda: Just like my Guru Mahārāja did not travel all over the world, so I have got double energy than him. So you must triple energy, four times energy than me. Then actually disciple. My Godbrothers are envious because they could not do. They could not do even half of Guru Mahārāja's work, and I am doing ten times. So therefore they are envious. So if an ordinary man like me can do ten times, you are Americans (laughs) twenty times, then you are successful.

Devotee (1): If we can do twenty times, it's only because you gave us the energy.

Prabhupāda: Yes. My blessings are there, you do it, try. Just like Guru Mahārāja gave blessings to everyone, but if they do not try, if they remain Kuñja Babu, then let him remain Kuñja Babu. What can be done? If he's satisfied only one building in Māyāpur and two buildings in Vṛndāvana, that is his only ambition. The ambition is poor.

Śyāmasundara: Just like Tuṣṭa Kṛṣṇa and his wife, they hitchhiked all the way to Australia.

Prabhupāda: Just see.

Pradyumna: They landed by ship in northern Australia, Perth, where our plane first landed that night.

Prabhupāda: He is very energetic.

Śyāmasundara: And they hitchhiked across Australia, 1,500 miles through the desert.

Prabhupāda: Just see.

Śyāmasundara: He said sometimes a car would not come by for many hours, and they would be standing in the hot sun, no trees, anything.

Prabhupāda: Oh, desert, big desert.

Śyāmasundara: A huge desert they practically made their way across.

Prabhupāda: Just see.

Pradyumna: He said aborigines live there.

Prabhupāda: Oh, they may attack.

Śyāmasundara: Kangaroos. They saw some kangaroos. Those animals that jump.

Prabhupāda: They live in the desert, the kangaroos?

Śyāmasundara: Yes, semi-desert.

Pradyumna: There are many strange animals in Australia.

Prabhupāda: Predators?

Pradyumna: Just strange. The marsupials.

Śyāmasundara: Those animals that bear their young in a pouch.

Pradyumna: The pouch here, kangaroo.

Prabhupāda: That is kangaroo.

Devotee (1): And platypuses.

Devotee (4): And platypus, the platypus animal.

Śyāmasundara: Half bird, half . . .

Devotee (4): Half snake.

Śyāmasundara: Under water.
