Nectar Drops from Srila Prabhupada |
"Prabhupāda: Now you have got the United Nation. Now, if they are sane men, they should pass resolution, "The whole world belongs to God, and we are all God's sons. So let us make now United States of the World." That can be easily done. If they can make United States of America, why not United States of the whole world?
Wally Strobes: I think that would probably solve a lot of problems, because ownership, possession . . . Prabhupāda: Yes, all problems. Now suppose in India there is scarcity of foodstuff. In America, in Africa, in Australia, there is enough grain. Produce foodstuff, distribute. Then immediately whole nations become united. Use everything, God's gift—we are all sons—very nicely. Then the, all the problems solved. Now the difficulty is that we have made, "No, this is my property. We shall use it, nation." In the Vedic conception there is no such thing as "national." There is no such conception." |
