HDG A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada

Bhakti-caru: (Bengali) He is telling that he's
requesting repeatedly that Prabhupada doesn't talk too
much. He says that the energy that he's building, the
moment he starts talking, he loses that energy.
Tamala Krsna: Is that all right, Srila Prabhupada?
Prabhupada: No, how to say all right?
Kaviraja: (Hindi)
Bhakti-caru: (Hindi)
Tamala Krsna: Trying to stop Srila Prabhupada from
speaking is like trying to stop the Ganga.
Kaviraja: (Hindi)
Bhakti-caru: Shastriji's saying that he's seen lakhs
of patients, but he hasn't seen a body like Srila
Prabhupada's. In one moment it is very critical, and
the next moment it's in perfect order. And he is now
absolutely confident that Prabhupada is going to get
well.
Jagadisa: He is or isn't?
Tamala Krsna: He is. We also are.
Bhakti-caru: And he's just requesting Srila Prabhupada
that he keeps on taking the milk and the fruit juice
and the medicine.
Tamala Krsna: Is that all right, Srila Prabhupada?
(end)

one day before
Tamala Krsna: This seems like suicide, Srila
Prabhupada, this program. It seems to some of us like
it's suicidal.
Prabhupada: And this is also suicidal.
Tamala Krsna: Hm. Prabhupada said, "And this is also
suicide." Now you have to choose which suicide.
Prabhupada: The Ravana will kill and Rama will kill.
Better to be killed by Rama. Eh? That Marica--if he
does not go to mislead Sita, he'll be killed by
Ravana; and if he goes to be killed by Rama, then it
is better.
Tamala Krsna: Who is this Prabhupada's talking about?
Devotees: Marica.
