| Nectar Drops from Srila Prabhupada |
| "Their whole civilization is based on this Darwin's theory. How long you shall keep history? Do you know what is the history of the sun, when it was created, when it came into appearance? Can Darwin give us the history of the sun, of the moon, of the sky? Where is the history? There is history, but where is your history? You simply imagine, 'There was a chunk, and it became manifested as the sun, moon, and I am also this...' What is this? How this cosmic manifestation came into existence, your explanation is: 'There was a chunk'. And what other nonsense?" |

| Nectar Drops from Srila Prabhupada |
| "They do not understand that this material conditional life is always miserable. They have accepted, 'It is very nice'. Animals, animals... Just like in the slaughterhouse, livestock godown, there are so many animals, and they are going to be slaughtered. Everyone knows. They also know, the animals. But on account of their animal quality, they cannot do anything. Similarly, we are also put into the slaughterhouse of this material world. It is called mṛtyu-loka. Everyone knows that he will be slaughtered. Today or tomorrow or fifty years after or a hundred years after, everyone knows that he will be slaughtered. He'll die, death means slaughter. Nobody wants to die. The animal also do not like to die, but they are forcibly killed. This is called slaughter." |
