Surabhī: Śrīla Prabhupāda? When I was in Jaipur I inquired from some people regarding your health, because I met Yaśodānandana Swami in Delhi, and he told me that you wanted to know from an astrologer about the situation. So I went to one man who was previously the advisor of the Mahārāja of Mansingh of Jaipur. One life member brought me to him. So I inquired.
Prabhupāda: What he is?
Surabhī: He's a paṇḍita. He uses numerology.
Prabhupāda: Hm? Numerology?
Surabhī: Numerology. By numbers. So he takes the name and then he... So he said... You want to know what he said? He told me that your disease is going to last altogether about two and a half years, two years and five months, of which eight months have passed.
Prabhupāda: Still I shall live?
Surabhī: He said that these three months now are most critical, but then, after three months, things will go better, but there will be ups and downs for about one and a half more years. Then he said after that it will be quite all right.
Prabhupāda: Three months?
Surabhī: It will be very...
Prabhupāda: Difficult.
Surabhī: Difficult. Yes. After three months, and he said that you will travel again then. But he said there is no absolute danger.
Prabhupāda: So. There is some sense.
Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Everybody's saying the same thing like this.
Surabhī: And he would like a report of these nine days that are going on now, and then he wants to study again more to give more information. I was there on the fifth.
Prabhupāda: So give him a place to send to...
Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: He works by numbers, not by astrology. He's not an astrologer.
Prabhupāda: Oh, so he knows my birth date and year.
Surabhī: Yes. He knows.
Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: I gave him your birth date and time.
Prabhupāda: Oh.
Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: I mean now I gave him the time.
Surabhī: No, I had everything.
Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: You told him?
Surabhī: Yes.
Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Is that a science, Śrīla Prabhupāda, that numbers?
Prabhupāda: Yes.
Surabhī: And before I asked the question, he told me what my question was. So he said, "You have two questions." I said, "No, I have one." He said, "No, you have two." Because my question was how long you will stay. So he said, "No, you want to know about health and about life span." So he gave both answers. He also said that the medicine... The best thing for you to take is milk of a black cow and juice, fruit juice. That is the best to take.
Prabhupāda: Fruit juice.
Surabhī: Yes. Lot of juice and milk of black cow. And then tulasī.
Prabhupāda: That is not difficult.
Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: That you're practically doing.
Prabhupāda: But he said "black cow."
Surabhī: He insisted on black cow.
Yaśomatīnandana: Śyāmala.
Surabhī: And if black is not... Bhagatji is looking for a black cow. He's been looking for the last two weeks. And also tulasī, he said. That is very important to take.
Prabhupāda: So you have? You can give me.
Surabhī: Other things are not necessary, he said.
Prabhupāda: Ācchā? No medicine?
Surabhī: No. No medicine.
Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Good doctor. (laughter)
Prabhupāda: So meet him again and take particularly everything. So you can go.
Surabhī: Yes, Śrīla Prabhupāda. Now I have to go. My train is leaving in about twenty minutes.
Prabhupāda: So you can go.
