Room Conversation at New Mayapur (French farm)
with His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada,
August 2, 1976
Hari-sauri: The whole country could be like this if everybody was Krsna conscious.
Prabhupada: Very peacefully you can live. In the city you go, thousands of cars are running—ror-ror-ror-ror-ror-ror-ror. What is called? Flyway, expressway, downway, every ten yards stop for the light. (laughter) How artificial life. And with all these things, if people would have been happy, all right. But they’re not happy, in spite of all this advancement.
Hari-sauri: Yes. Simply increasing their miseries.
Prabhupada: That’s all. Problems.
Hari-sauri: The bigger the buildings, the more anxiety they’re in.
Prabhupada: Not only many cars, they construct new roads, new… Increasing business, in the hope of happiness. But there is no happiness.
Hari-sauri: Happiness is the last consideration.
Prabhupada: They are thinking that “In this way we shall be happy.”
Hari-sauri: Get more money.
Prabhupada: First of all, paved way, then flyway, then another flyway, then another flyway, in this way. Bahir-artha-maninah.
Hari-sauri: They’re always striving for happiness, that’s all. They never achieve it, they never get there.
Prabhupada: No. That is called maya. Just like the animal is running after the mirage, water, but there is no water.
