Comet was like a policeman

Ramesvara Swami : When in January 1974 devotees saw Kohoutek's Comet and told Srila Prabhupada, he called the comet a bad omen. "In our childhood," he said, "we saw a comet, and the First World War was declared." The witnesses of the Kohoutek Comet told Prabhupada that it had filled up the sky near their airplane with flashes of light. "And they say the tail is three million miles long. It's going very fast, so it is emitting a tail of gasses." "So who is supplying the gasses?" asked Prabhupada. "The Arabians?" He said the comet was like a policeman who all of a sudden comes before us. By his presence, we can understand that some criminal is present and the policeman is searching. He said disasters would follow.
