Srila Prabhupada took another walk at Melbourne?s Botanic Gardens. Prabhupada, his head wrapped in a long orange scarf, alighted from the car and paused briefly on the perimeter road near the entrance to the Gardens. Satsvarupa held a microphone forward to record his words. Rama Prasad: It was early morning?dawn actually?and there was only the barest glimmer of light. Yet so many cars were zooming past on the arterial road nearby. Prabhupada looked towards the city. I recall that his eyes were moist, and that he spoke with great compassion. ?They are so unfortunate,? he said. ?They are working so hard.? We could clearly see that he felt keenly for the suffering souls.
