Another incident that comes to mind was in 1968 or 69. We had a very well attended temple on La Cienega Boulevard in Los Angeles. The devotees went to Griffith Park in Los Angeles and chanted and distributed prasadam. Visnujan had little puppets and we would have puppet shows there and bring people from Griffith Park to the temple. We also went to the meditation room in “The Mystic Arts Book Store” in Laguna Beach. They let us have kirtan there and we would bring van loads of people from Laguna Beach to Los Angeles for the feast. In this way the feast was very well attended.
On this particular day Srila Prabhupada was going to preside over an initiation and a fire yajna ceremony. The temple was very full with people. At that time an Italian film making crew was filming at the temple. If somebody could get that film, it would be a historical piece of footage. A lady named Syama Devi, who was the guru of many Hindus, came into the temple and sat in the back. (Syama Devi now has an ashram right next to the Krishna Balaram temple in Vrindavan.) Her disciples, older Hindu ladies and gentlemen, rolled out a carpet, she sat down on it, and they sat around her while Srila Prabhupada performed the yajna. After Srila Prabhupada finished he sat on the stage. Prabhupada’s Vyasasana was on the stage at the same level as the altar.

 
Imagine going to bed at 12 am, and while sleeping your body begins to dissolve. At 3 am, your body has become nothing more than a chemical soup. Everything, the brain, liver, kidneys, eyes, ect, everything has dissolved into a soup. From 3 am onwards this chemical soup begins to transform into another organism. At twelve am you are an earth bound catterpillar, at 3 am you are a chemical soup, and at 6 am when you wake up, you are a beautiful butterfly capable of flying some fifty miles in one day. This is explained in a very beautiful way in this 4 minute video on YouTube.
Of course this supernatural event will be explained away, as most things are, by the neo-evolutionists. However the butterfly is only one example of how nature is not an evolutionary, mechanistic process, but a supernatural one.

 
The woodpecker is an amazing bird. Its chizel like bill hammers the wood at an amazing 16 times per second, or 1000 pecks per minute, a rate of fire faster than a machine gun. Normally, banging your head against a tree all day at twice the speed of a bullet, would induce a cosmic sized headache, followed by brain damage. However, there is a special cartilidge between the beak and the skull which acts as a shock absorber. Woodpeckers close their eyes when pecking as the velocity would pop its eyes out, and so they only open them between pecks.
