750519b Conversation - Srila Prabhupada Speaks a Nectar Drop in Melbourne

Nectar Drops from Srila Prabhupada
"Journalist: How would you say this godlessness is . . .

Prabhupāda: Godlessness is one does not know what is God. And just like you know me, you have come to me. You know I am a person, I am talking, I have written so many books. This is knowing me. Similarly, one must know what is God, what is His feature, what does He do, what does He teach, what law He gives. This is knowing God. Simply to understand, "Oh, well, there is God. Let Him remain at His place, and let me do whatever I like," that is not understanding of God. You must know God just like you must know your father. If you are interested with your father's property, then you must know your father, who is your father."
