<div class="heading">It doesn't matter whether it is Christianity or Hinduism or Muslim or... Knowledge is knowledge. Wherever knowledge is available, you must pick up. So knowledge... Now let us explain, that knowledge has no color. Knowledge is knowledge. It doesn't matter whether Christianism or Hinduism or Mohammedan.

<span class="link">[[Vanisource:Room Conversation with Professor Durckheim German Spiritual Writer -- June 19, 1974, Germany|Room Conversation with Professor Durckheim German Spiritual Writer -- June 19, 1974, Germany]]: </span><div class="text"><p style="display: inline;">Professor Durckheim: May I say that way, that you say, if you, for instance, or I want to go out of this body, it doesn't mean that I will have to kill my body, but to realize that my spirit is independent from my body.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No, no. There is no question of killing. You be killed or not killed, you have to go out of this body and accept another body. That is nature's law. That you cannot avoid. It is not necessarily that first of all you have to be killed. No.</p>
<p>Professor Durckheim: No. Certainly not. But I have tried to become independent from my body.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes, you can become. (German)</p>
<p>Lady: Have you got some points in common with the Christians?</p>
<p>Professor Durckheim: Lady says that there are some common points with the Christians who also certainly want to become independent from this body which wants material life only.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes. It doesn't matter whether it is Christianity or Hinduism or Muslim or... Knowledge is knowledge. Wherever knowledge is available, you must pick up. So knowledge... Now let us explain, that knowledge has no color. Knowledge is knowledge. It doesn't matter whether Christianism or Hinduism or Mohammedan. Now, this is a knowledge, that every living entity is imprisoned within this body. This knowledge is equally good for Hindus, Muslim, Christian or everyone. There is no question of Christianism or Hinduism. The soul is imprisoned within this body, and the problem is birth, death, old age and disease on account of this body. But we want to live eternally, we want full knowledge; we want full blissfulness. To attain that goal of life, we must get out of this body. This is the process. (German) (break)</p>
<p>Vedavyāsa: (translating) ...stress on this point that we are existing in a body but we should accept our existence as human being.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Existence as human being, you want. So do you think human being is existing in this body is perfect? (German)</p>
<p>Dr. P. J. Saher: No, I don't say it is perfect. (German)</p>
<p>Vedavyāsa: So he says yes, he accepts our life now is not perfect, that we are conditioned. But he says we shouldn't construct an ideal human being, but we should accept our life as it is now.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No, no. The thing is that you are not perfect. Therefore the idea should be how to become perfect. (German)</p>
