| Nectar Drops from Srila Prabhupada |
"Without father, nobody is born. So I do not know who is my father, but the mother is the evidence. That's all. You cannot make this theory that 'I was born without father'. That is not possible. That is not the laws of nature. But there must be father. You can say, "I have not seen him." And that is not proof that there is no father. One who has seen, go. Tattva-darśinaḥ. Therefore Bhagavad-gītā says,
Go to mother, who has seen your father. That is only proof." |
