OWK 4 The Roads of the Foolish and the Wise
Prabhupada : We may apply our intelligence to manufacture an automobile, radio or television for sense gratification, but we have to understand that this is not knowledge. Rather, this is plundered intelligence. Intelligence was given to man to understand the problems of life, but it is being misused. People are thinking that they have acquired knowledge because they know how to manufacture and drive cars, but before the car was here people were still going from one place to another. It is just that the facility has been increased, but along with this facility come additional problems--air pollution and over-crowded highways. This is maya; we are creating facilities, but these facilities in their turn are creating so many problems.
Instead of wasting our energy to supply ourselves with so many facilities and modern amenities, we should apply intelligence to understand who and what we are. We do not like to suffer, but we should understand why suffering is being forced upon us. By so-called knowledge we have simply succeeded in manufacturing the atomic bomb. Thus the killing process has been accelerated. We are so proud to think that this is advancement of knowledge, but if we can manufacture something that can stop death, we have really advanced in knowledge. Death is already there in material nature, but we are so eager to promote it by killing everyone at one drop--this is called mayayapahrta-jnana knowledge carried away by illusion.
The asuras, the demons and proclaimed atheists, actually challenge God. If it were not for our Supreme Father, we would not see the light of day, so what is the point of challenging Him? In the Vedas it is stated that there are two classes of men, the devas and asuras, the demigods and demons. Who are the devas? The devotees of the Supreme Lord are called devas because they also become like God, whereas those who defy the authority of the Supreme are called asuras or demons. These two classes are always found in human society.

  • @AgentPopcornGirl it is mentioned and los Alamos is Alamogordo.

  • I live in New Mexico..

  • @withholeyshoes1 .... good people, puppets...I understand why Russel told Tesla to bury it.

  • "Good people"

  • Continued.... But thank GOD it was the United States of America who invented the Atomic bomb first. Because had it been the NAZI's or the SOVIET's who had a monopoly on that evil weapon. We would be living in a very dark world today.

  • Idiots blame the USA for all the worlds problems. For sure the USA is far from perfect, they have made some monumental screw ups since World War II by getting bogged down in unwinnable wars in Vietnam & Afghanistan, for sure they gave the Mujahideen weapons in 1980's to fight the USSR who some of them then became the Taliban & Al Qaeda, they George W Bush 2 terms(WTF) & removed a democratically elected Iranian leader in 1953 which eventual gave rise to the Mullahs in 1979.

  • i think it's funny how Los Alamos and Alamogordo aren't mentioned :D

    and the information in this video is crap.... just sayin.... besides Oppenheimer, he was pretty cool :)

  • @301001082: All plutonium weapons have to be implosion devices; no other method of creating a critical mass is fast enough, due to Pu240 contamination (it shoots neutrons all teh time, and thus causes premature detonation when the build is too slow). I think you're thinking of the levitated core, an improvement in the Mark 4 implosion bomb.

  • The Manhattan Project was the construction of the bomb. The test in Alamagordo was Operation Trinity; according to everyone I have consulted, it had no particular meaning. The bomb was named The Gadget. The operational side of the Manhatten Project, the delivery of the bombs, was Project Alberta.

  • idk but what i thought is they call it that (trinity) cos there was 3 of them - the gadge (the prototype if u can call it), littleboy and fatman.

    the site was called trinity but not the title of the operation or project. i think it was called the manhattan project??!!

    if i have anything wrong then message me back or whatever.
