Coconuts Have Eyes

Bhavatarini Dasi: On a morning walk in Hawaii, Bali Mardan said, "Look at those clouds Srila Prabhupada, they look like birds." Srila Prabhupada said, "Yes. There are birds bigger than this that perch on planets and lay eggs while flying through outer space." I didn't know what all that meant. Another time Prabhupada said, "Why have they taken all the coconuts off the trees?" The devotees answered, "Srila Prabhupada, they think that the coconuts are going to fall on someone's head and kill them." Srila Prabhupada said, "That is not possible. Coconuts have eyes."
