Pradyumna: Here he says, "The mission of the present avatāra is to make everybody realize that since the same God or divinity resides in everyone, people should respect, love, and..."
Prabhupāda: No, no. If he resides in everyone, then why he has special claim?
Pradyumna: Yes, well he says he has remembered.
Prabhupāda: He remembers? How God can forget?
Pradyumna: That he says. That he says here. He says that, "Take paddy or rice by way of an illustration. Every grain of rice is enclosed in a husk. You have to remove the husk to get the grain of rice. Now husk and rice both come from the same seed. Rice is the equivalent of God in man."
Prabhupāda: But still husk is not rice. You cannot say husk is rice.
Pradyumna: He says the husk... He says "Rice is the equivalent of God in man while the husk can be compared to desire which reduces God to man."
Prabhupāda: No, no.
Pradyumna: Therefore my desire is life plus desire equals man. Life minus desire equals God."
Prabhupāda: (dictating:) You are desiring to become God. There cannot be no desire. But you're unceremoniously desiring to become God. Although there is no proof in the śāstras. In the Bhagavad-gītā it is accepted that the living entities are sparks of..., part and parcel of God, Kṛṣṇa.
Pradyumna: "In the Bhagavad-gītā it is accepted that the living entities..."
Prabhupāda: Are part and parcel of God. But part is never equal to the whole. (break)
Pradyumna: "So you can claim as a spark of God, as every living entity can claim but you cannot claim as the..."
Prabhupāda: The Supreme Person with full power. That is misleading. You can show a little magic, as other magicians also can show.
Pradyumna: "You can show a little magic as other magicians can also show."
Prabhupāda: But you cannot show the full magic, as Kṛṣṇa displayed or Lord Rāmacandra displayed. Therefore your claim as a full power is completely false and blasphemous.
Pradyumna: "Therefore your claim for full power is completely false..."
Prabhupāda: And blasphemous. In this way find out.
