Udayananda: I was on a morning walk with Srila Prabhupada in Chicago in 1975. We were walking for some time along Lake Shore Drive. We came up to a fishing pier way out into the lake where some people were standing on the end of the pier. Srila Prabhupada said, “What are they doing?” We said, “Oh, they’re fishing, Srila Prabhupada.” Prabhupada got really grave. He said, “They are fishing now and later the material energy will fish them.” It was a very heavy, almost angry statement. “They are fishing now and later the material energy will fish them.”
