Blind Materialism

Srila Prabhupada B.T.G. article, April 20, 1956 - “Blind Materialism” )

54 years ago in the Back to Godhead magazine, Srila Prabhupada wrote, “…the materialistic civilization will be destroyed by nuclear weapons after a lapse of 50 years.” Well we’re 4 years after that lapse and it looks like the pure devotee was giving us a fair warning.

So sometime after 2006 the Nuclear weapons must be used. In 1975 through 1977 on morning walk conversations with devotees Prabhupada stated that the war would start between India and Pakistan. Then Russia and America would get involved.

The first party who will drop the bomb on the other party, he will be victorious, and immediately the war will stop

Now the nuclear war means it will not continue very long. The first party who will drop the bomb on the other party, he will be victorious, and immediately the war will stop. They are simply arranging how to drop the atom bomb first. So one who will be able to drop the bomb first, he will be victorious . It doesn’t require long time. Just like in Japan, as soon as the Americans dropped the atom bomb in Hiroshima, immediately they surrendered. This will be the result. Now the question is who will be able to drop the bomb first .

Harikesa: The sinless people will survive
Prabhupada: Yes.
Devotee (3): Who is that?
Prabhupada: We
Prabhupada: That will take place. Otherwise, how they will be killed?
Ambarisa: They’re calling it a limited nuclear war.
Prabhupada: They are accumulated so much sinful load that must be killed. That is sure. (break) …the massacre. That will take place .
Harikesa: The sinless people will survive?
Prabhupada: Yes.
Devotee (3): Who is that?
Prabhupada: We. (break) There was an artificial famine in India and I particularly inquired from all devotees whether they have got any problem in this famine. They said, “No, we haven’t got.” I have taken the statistics. In 1942 the artificial famine created by government… So there were big earthquake in Bihar. At that time one of my godbrother, he was government auditor. So I inquired. In that earthquake only his house was saved . I have seen it many times. Kaunteya pratijanihi na me bhaktah pranasyati. That is the only….

samasrita ye pada-pallava-plavam
mahat-padam punya-yaso murareh
bhavambudhir vatsa-padam param padam
padam padam yad vipadam na tesam

Padam padam yad vipadam na tesam. It is not meant for them, all these dangerous condition.

Whether we are saved or not will depend on Krsna. If we live, that will be fortunate for us because this will give us more precious time to develop our loving relationship with Srila Prabhupada. It will also give us a chance to render very valuable service to His Divine Grace. After the war this civilization of Blind Materialism will come to sense and be humble enough to hear Srila Prabhupada’s message.

Dhananjaya: And after the war what will be the result?
Prabhupada: After the war they will come to sense.

Prabhupada: Preaching will be very nice after the war when both of them, especially Russia, will be finished…….

For our parts we should just be determined to carry out our mission against all opposition, demons, nuclear war, whatever
