Unless one takes to Krsna consciousness, there is no possibility of being saved. There is example, that grinding mill, the grains are put within it, and they are all smashed. But one grain who takes shelter of the center, the pivot, it is not smashed. Similarly, the modern civilization is such that everyone will be smashed. And one takes the central point shelter, Krsna consciousness, he will not be.
