Soul is always staying in the subtle body, and the subtle body is left when he goes to God or kingdom of God. |
| Nectar Drops from Srila Prabhupada |
| "God orders nature that 'This living entity wants something like this. You give him a machine'. So the prakṛti, or the nature, gives us different types of machine. Prakṛteḥ kriyamāṇāni guṇaiḥ karmāṇi sarvaśaḥ (BG 3.27). I am neither driving the machine, neither I have made the machine. I have been given as gift to work on, or to fulfill my desire. This is the position. So śāstra says that 'You have got now a very good machine'. Nṛ-deham. The human form of body is very good machine. Nṛ-deham ādyaṁ sulabhaṁ sukalpam. It is very rare. With great difficulty you have got this machine, because we have to come through so many machines—the aquatics, the plants, the insects, the trees, and the serpents, reptiles, then birds, then beast—millions and millions of years. Just like you have seen this, the trees are standing there, maybe standing for five thousand years. So if you get that machine, you cannot move, you have to stand in one place. So we had to go through this. Foolish people, they do not know. Therefore this machine is sulabham. Sulabham means very fortunately we have got this machine." |

| Interviewer: People are interested in development of a man like you because they relate. And that way they decide to read what you write. Prabhupāda: First thing is that if you are interested in our book, so you read our books; you'll understand. Interviewer: Understand you? Prabhupāda: Yes. Interviewer: Is that what you're saying? Prabhupāda: Yes. Interviewer: Is that what he's saying? Prabhupāda: A man is known when he speaks. When he speaks. Tāvac ca śobhate mūrkho yāvat kiñcin na bhāṣate: 'A fool is so long beautiful as long as he does not speak'. (laughter) When he speaks, then you can understand what he is. So my speaking are there in the books, and if you are intelligent, you can understand. You haven't got to ask. Speaking... Just like in a court. A big lawyer is known when he speaks. Otherwise everyone is a good lawyer. But when he speaks in the court, then he is known whether he is good lawyer or not. So you have to hear. You have to read. Then you'll understand. Real understanding is there. |
