I do not know how they get Nobel Prize, putting forward a false theory that life comes from matter. The matter . . . so why don't you produce life in the laboratory? Matter is there. Chemicals are there. You mix them and produce a life. When some such chemist is inquired, "Whether you can produce life if I give you the chemicals?".

This is demonic nature. They will simply try to suppress Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement. Because these symptoms are there: na śaucaṁ nāpi cācāro na satyaṁ teṣu vidyate ([[Vanisource:BG 16.7 (1972)|BG 16.7]]). There is no truthfulness. They do not know what is ultimate truth. Satyaṁ paraṁ dhīmahi ([[Vanisource:SB 1.1.1|SB 1.1.1]]). In the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam the beginning is, satyaṁ paraṁ dhīmahi. Janmādy asya yataḥ: "The Absolute Truth . . . I am meditating upon the Supreme Truth, Absolute Truth." What is Absolute Truth? Janmādy asya yataḥ: "From whom everything has come into existence, that is Absolute." So what is the nature of that Absolute Truth? Is it a dead body or a living body? There are two things: something dead and something living. So what is the nature of the Absolute Truth? So that is replied, janmādy asya yataḥ anvayād itarataś cārtheṣv abhijñaḥ ([[Vanisource:SB 1.1.1|SB 1.1.1]]). Abhijñaḥ means cognizant, living. The Absolute Truth is not dead; it is living. We are pushing forward this theory.

The modern scientists, they are of opinion that life comes from matter. We say, "No, life comes from life. Matter comes from life." This is satyam. I do not know how they get Nobel Prize, putting forward a false theory that life comes from matter. The matter . . . so why don't you produce life in the laboratory? Matter is there. Chemicals are there. You mix them and produce a life. When some such chemist is inquired, "Whether you can produce life if I give you the chemicals?" they will immediately say, "That I cannot say." Then why do you speak like that? So this is asuric. If they accept that everything comes from the living being, then they will have to accept God. So they want to avoid this. "Everything matter." But that is not the fact. Origin is life - that is explained in the Bhagavad-gītā. Kṛṣṇa says, ahaṁ sarvasya prabhavaḥ ([[Vanisource:BG 10.8 (1972)|BG 10.8]]). Aham. Kṛṣṇa is life. He's not dead matter.
