Puṣṭa Kṛṣṇa: Śrīla Prabhupāda has asked that all the sannyāsīs take one shirt. (break) (guest enters)
Prabhupāda: He wants chair? No.
Rāmeśvara: He likes sitting Indian style. (Prabhupāda laughs)
Jay Warner: No, this is fine, thank you.
Rāmeśvara: His name is Jay Warner.
Prabhupāda: Yes, I . . . Ācarati śreṣṭhas tat tad evetaro janaḥ (BG 3.21): "Anything which is accepted by leading men, that is accepted by others." So you are one of the leading men in the society, lawyer. If you understand our philosophy, then many others will follow. So kindly try to understand our philosophy thoroughly, and then others will follow, "He's a big lawyer. He's a Kṛṣṇa conscious man." If you have any doubt, you can ask. We will try to explain. Asaṁśayaṁ samagraṁ māṁ yathā jñāsyasi tac chṛṇu (BG 7.1). Find out this verse. (break) It must be distinct from other paintings.
Kīrtanānanda: Who did that painting?
Prabhupāda: I think that one was done . . . everyone has done one picture.
Hari-śauri: That picture of Lord Nṛsiṁha-deva killing all the demon armies, it's a most amazing picture. He has about twenty arms.
Jay Warner: I do have one question. How can one establish faith in the principle of reincarnation? How can one come to believe in it?
Prabhupāda: Incarnation of God?
Devotees: Reincarnation, transmigration.
Prabhupāda: That is very simple thing. That is stated in the Bhagavad-gītā. Now, you were a child. That's a fact. Were you not a child?
Hṛdayānanda: You were a child before.
Jay Warner: Yes.
Prabhupāda: Where is that body?
Jay Warner: Where is the body of the child?
Prabhupāda: Yes. You were a child. Where is that body?
Jay Warner: It has grown into a man.
Prabhupāda: Grown, or it is changed? The same thing. But that child, that body, is no more existing. Is it not?
Jay Warner: Yes, it is gone.
Prabhupāda: The body may vanquished, but you are going through. That is incarnation. The child body is vanquished, it is no more existing. Either you say grow or I may say it has changed, that body is finished. Is it not?
Jay Warner: Yes.
