In Europe, every ten years, twenty years, there is a fight, war. It is the history. From the Greece history, Roman history and Seven Years War, Hundred Years War—wars.

It becomes very heavy, unbearable by the earth. And to reduce the weight there is natural . . . and when there is still more power required, then Kṛṣṇa comes: "Arrange for a war in the battlefield of Kurukṣetra and bring all the rascals and finish within eighteen days." Within eighteen days, sixty-four crores men died. This is . . . but why? It is Kṛṣṇa's arrangement.
