The Facts About Srila Prabhupada's Poisoning by Arsenic
"So as Krishna was attempted to be killed... And Lord Jesus Christ was killed.
So they may kill me also." (Srila Prabhupada, May 3, l976, Honolulu)
"my only request is , that at the last stage don't torture me, and put me to death"
(from SPC Vol. 36, November 3, 1977 tape recorded Room Conversation)

Satsvarupa Maharaj described Srila Prabhupada as having "mild diabetes" and Srila Prabhupada Himself admitted to Gargamuni in Bhubaneshwar that "I have diabetes." In the last few months of Srila Prabhupada's life He would often ask for and take "misri-jala" or sugar water, indicating that sugar was not restricted due to any serious diabetes that Srila Prabhupada thus apparently did not have. Satsvarupa states in Prabhupada Nectar, Vol.4, pg.170: "Later (after 1967) Srila Prabhupada was diagnosed as a diabetic, yet he never took regular treatment..." Srila Prabhupada's following a regular and generally restricted diet was good sense for good health, although perhaps it was required to some degree to accommodate the mild diabetes He is supposed to have had.
Diabetes symptoms do not match Srila Prabhupada's symptoms and there are several diabetes symptoms which Srila Prabhupada positively did not display, such as obesity and excessive hunger. There is definitely another cause besides diabetes which is producing the kind of symptoms that Srila Prabhupada had. There are few if any signs by symptom analysis of any significant development of diabetes in His medical history. Hari Sauri states that he had no indication whatsoever during his 18 months as personal servant that Srila Prabhupada had diabetes. (Appendix 21) Some of the symptoms of diabetes are found in Srila Prabhupada during His 1977 illness, but many of the critical and conclusive signs of diabetes were definitely not found in Srila Prabhupada at all.
Srila Prabhupada did not have diabetes serious enough to display the symptoms of diabetes. For example, loss of vision or blindness is sometimes seen in diabetes. Srila Prabhupada, however, did not exhibit the signs of an advanced case of diabetes which would produce loss of vision. Further, not one doctor or kaviraja even mentioned diabetes as a factor in His Divine Grace's health, nor did He require insulin. Diabetes is thus ruled.
There are two categories of diabetes, namely insipidus and mellitus. Insipidus diabetes is rare and results in excessive thirst and urination, day and night, with 4 to 40 quarts drunk a day. This was NOT Srila Prabhupada's condition. Mellitus diabetes is a disorder in which blood levels of glucose, a simple sugar, are abnormally high because the body does not release (Type I) or use (Type II) insulin adequately. The causes of diabetes are not fully understood. (Poisons can cause diabetes, however)
Symptoms of Type II mellitus diabetes (non-insulin dependent) do NOT match Srila Prabhupada's condition, because there was no obesity, no excessive urination and no dehydration. The symptoms are:
1. Increased urination and thirst
2. Dehydration leading to mental confusion, drowsiness, seizures
3. 80 to 90% of victims are obese (overweight)
4. Progression of disease may be very gradual over decades
Symptoms of Type I mellitus diabetes (insulin dependent) also do NOT match Srila Prabhupada's condition, as there was no excessive urination, no excessive hunger, no deep and rapid breathing, no dependence on insulin, and no sudden onset of symptoms. The symptoms are:
1. Excessive urination (polyuria)
2. Excessive thirst (polydipsia)
3. Excessive hunger
4. Weight loss, bouts with diarrhea
5. Blurred vision, loss of eyesight leading to blindness
6. Drowsiness, fatigue, decreased endurance in exercise
7. Nausea, vomiting
8. High susceptibility to infection
9. Symptoms begin abruptly, may progress rapidly to coma if untreated
10. Deep, rapid breathing
11. Breath smells like nail polish remover
12. Kidney malfunction or failure
13. Reduced sensation, tingling, pain in the hands and feet
The conclusion is that Srila Prabhupada did NOT have much of a case of diabetes of any kind, if we are to judge from the symptoms. But even if He were to have diabetes, the 44 symptoms chronicled in the above health history that are signs of chronic arsenic poisoning still remain intact. Diabetes or not, it doesn't change the clear diagnosis of chronic arsenic poisoning. Srila Prabhupada has some symptoms of diabetes which are also symptoms of kidney disease and arsenic poisoning. But Srila Prabhupada had many symptoms of arsenic poisoning which are NOT found in either diabetes or kidney disease.
So even if Srila Prabhupada were diabetic, this would not at all change the conclusion by symptom analysis that Srila Prabhupada's illness in 1977 was caused by chronic arsenic poisoning.
Srila Prabhupada left this mortal world on November 14, 1977.
But He lives forever in His instructions, and His followers will always live with Him.
"He reasons ill who tells that Vaishnavas die
While thou art living still in sound!
The Vaishnavas die to live, and living try
To spread the Holy Name around"
(Śrīla Bhaktivinoda Thākura)
