Prabhupada: Hm?

Devotee: Nature’s law?

Prabhupada: Yes, how the nature is working.

Guru-krpa: It’s working, mayadhyaksena prakrtih suyate sa-caracaram.

Prabhupada: Yes.

Guru-krpa: Acting under Krishna’s…

Prabhupada: Under Krsna’s plan. Therefore you cannot violate Krsna’s law. As soon as you violate nature’s law, then you have to be punished. (pause)
