<span class="link">[[Vanisource:Discussion with Indians -- January 18, 1971, Allahabad|Discussion with Indians -- January 18, 1971, Allahabad]]: </span><div class="text"><p style="display: inline;">Guest (3): That is the correct position.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: That is correct position. But if you find that "Swamiji is not on the standard," that means you are not in the posit..., sama-darśinaḥ even.</p>
<p>Guest (3): You mean if a person commits a murder, a sinner...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes, that is very high stage. That is very high stage, sama-darśinaḥ.</p>
<p>Guest (3): No, no. If a person commits a murder, you are seeing...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: So why you see, you are seeing, "Commits murder?" Why don't you see that it is Kṛṣṇa is acting there? Why you say that "commits murder?"</p>
<p>Guest (2): Kṛṣṇa is getting the sin committed.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Sama-darśinaḥ means you have no distinction what is sin and what is...</p>
<p>Guest (1): Sama-darśinaḥ means to treat everyone as equal.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No, no, no. Sama darśinaḥ means there is no distinction between sin and virtue. That is sama-darśinaḥ. As soon as you see, "This is virtue, and this is sin," it is not sama-darśinaḥ.</p>
<p>Guest (1): Virtue and sin become the same in sama-darśinaḥ.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes. That is sama-darśinaḥ.</p>
<p>Guest (2): In other words, the sin does not remain sin any longer.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: That is another thing. But he has no vision that "This is sin, and this is virtue." That is sama-darśinaḥ. As soon as you make distinction, you are not sama-darśinaḥ.</p>
<p>Guest (2): In another interpretation, in...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: You may interpret in a different. Sama-darśi, this is plain word. Sama-darśi means there is no difference, that's all.</p>
<p>Guest (2): But sama-darśi equals sama-darśi. The sin and virtue are the same.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No, here... Yes, that is sama-darśinaḥ because here it is said clearly, vidyā-vinaya-sampanne brāhmaṇa ([[Vanisource:BG 5.18|BG 5.18]]). A brāhmaṇa, learned brāhmaṇa, and vinaya, very humble... That is the sign of goodness. Vidyā-vinaya-sampanne gavi hastini śunica. Śunica means dog. Now he is seeing a dog and a learned brāhmaṇa-same. Now, dog is supposed to be sinful, and this learned brāhmaṇa is supposed to be virtuous. Therefore his vision, the virtuous and the sinful, the same. That is sama-darśi.</p>
<p>Guest (1): I think that they have made a many mistakes in writing of the ślokas.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: That's all right. Now you are finding mistake with Vyāsa, so who can talk with you?</p>
<p>Guest (2): No, but, but...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Please excuse me. Please go out. Please go out. Don't trouble. You are finding faults with Vyāsa.</p>
<p>Guest (4): We only want you to be understood here.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: (shouting) I am not sama-darśi! I don't say I'm sama-darśi! I don't say, sama-darśi. So you say sama-darśi. Sama-darśi.</p>
<p>Guest (2): You should be sama-darśi.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: But I am not in that stage. I say because you don't surrender to Kṛṣṇa, you are sinful. That is my darśana.</p>
<p>Guest (4): So then you should be also seeing as sama-darśinaḥ.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No, why shall I? I am not in that position. I am not within that... I am simply repeating the words of Kṛṣṇa.</p>
<p>Guest (4): Then that... You came to... Even your... (?)</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: I am simply teaching the teachings of Kṛṣṇa. That is my point. I may be sama-darśi, I may be not sama-darśi.</p>
<p>Guest (4): Not be, but you teach that we should worship the sama-darśi.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Kṛṣṇa says. I don't say.</p>
<p>Guest (4): Ah! You say, Kṛṣṇa says that...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: But that does not mean that one has become sama-darśinaḥ. That is... That is his...</p>
<p>Guest (4): Then he is not following the guru.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No. My position is simply repeating. That's all. My position is.</p>
<p>Guest (2): So we want understanding more than mere tape recorder.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes, you may be tape... But that is my position because I have been authorized in that way, that "Anyone who preaches this confidential subject matter, he is My dear." So I have nothing to learn, what is sama-darśi. I have my position...</p>
<p>Guest (4): No, blind following and open-eyed following, I say it is all right. We can read the book. We can read the verses, translation, Hindi translation. But that is not understanding.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes, that is not understanding, I understand. But I am understanding from my teacher, just like I told you, Rāmānujācārya, Madhvācārya, Viṣṇu Svāmī, Lord Caitanya. There are so many stalwart teachers, practically whole Hindu community.</p>
<p>Guest (6): But every successive teacher has added some interpretations of the knowledge, no?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: First of all let him be successor.</p>
<p>Guest (4): You are the successor of somebody.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes. Yes.</p>
<p>Guest (4): Yes. So you want to act something to get knowledge.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes.</p>
<p>Guest (4): And what is your contribution, then? That is what we are asking. What is sama-darśi? Have you become sama-darśi?</p>
<p>Guest (6): You are teaching others to be sama-darśi...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: My sama-darśi is that why only the Hindus shall know Kṛṣṇa? The world should know Kṛṣṇa.</p>
<p>Guest (6): World should know also.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes.</p>
