Introduction - In a 1975 evening class at ISKCON's newly opened Melbourne Mahaprabhu Mandir, and without citing Srimad-Bhagavatam 5.23.3, Srila Prabhupada spoke about the great Syena eagles that fly through outer space and drop their eggs, which hatch as they fall with the help of atmospheric friction.
