Prabhupāda: But the disease is not ordinary. It is always fatal. But by His especial mercy anything can be done. That is another thing. Lost appetite means life finished. [pause] Tāvad tanu-bhṛtāṁ tvad upekṣitānām [SB 7.9.19]. If Kṛṣṇa neglects, then nobody can live, but if He likes that “He must live,” anything can happen. That is possible. Anityam asukhaṁ lokam imaṁ prāpya bhajasva mām [Bg. 9.33]. Anityam asukhaṁ lokaṁ bhajasva mām. Otherwise failure. Everything is there in the Bhagavad-gītā. [pause] [break] [Hindi] [break] [end] ¶
