Because I do not remember what I did in my mother's womb, that does not mean that I had no a little body. The body is change, I am there. Therefore, I change this body I will remain. This is common sense business. I am changing my body daily every moment. Your childhood body and this body is not the same. You have changed your body, but that does not mean you have, you are different person.
Prabhupāda: You don't remember your childhood; that does not mean you had no childhood. Do you remember when you were so small boy, what did you do?
Allen Ginsberg: Certain things. Not very small, but there.
Prabhupāda: Or when you were in your womb of your mother. Do you remember?
Allen Ginsberg: No.
Prabhupāda: Then? Does it mean that you are not?
Allen Ginsberg: No, it doesn't mean that I am not.
Prabhupāda: Yes. So you do not remember, that is not reason. That is explained in the Bhagavad-gītā.
Allen Ginsberg: Yeah.
Prabhupāda:
- dehino 'smin yathā dehe
- kaumāraṁ yauvanaṁ jarā
- tathā dehāntara-prāptir
- dhīras tatra na muhyati

Because I do not remember what I did in my mother's womb, that does not mean that I had no a little body. The body is change; I am there. Therefore, I change this body I will remain. This is commonsense reason. I am changing my body daily, every moment. Your childhood body and this body is not the same. You have changed your body, but that does not mean you have . . . you are different person.
