So if you want to hear me, I can get down from the throne. (big applause and yells).

Lecture at the Hare Krsna Festival at La Salle Pleyel -- Paris, June 14, 1974:

Jyotirmayī: So he is saying that "You have been explaining what is God according to Bible and Bhagavad-gītā." So he wants to know if to be able to talk in that way you have met God, you have seen God, and if God has given you the authority for being seated on this vyāsāsana and receiving the obeisances of your disciples.

Prabhupāda: Yes. You can also get this position. If you know God and if you can speak about God, then you are also welcome to sit here and speak about God.

Jyotirmayī: (translating) He says that the only thing he can say about God is that he cannot talk about God.

Prabhupāda: Why? You can talk about everything, and why not about God?

Jyotirmayī: (translating) "Because God is one who cannot be seen, cannot be taken to be understood."

Prabhupāda: But that is your statement. But the Bible statement, Bhagavad-gītā statement is different. Why shall I take you as authority?

Jyotirmayī: (translating) He says that God means freedom, and God will not be...

Prabhupāda: How do you know it? First of all let me know how you know it about God that He is freedom or this or that. How you know it?

Jyotirmayī: (translating) "Because everyone has inside him knowledge of God, and one just has to listen within himself and he will know."

Prabhupāda: So I have got my own knowledge of God as you have got. Why you disagree with me?

Jyotirmayī: (translating) He says but he doesn't sit on a throne and he doesn't ask people to pay obeisances in front of him.

Prabhupāda: So if you want to hear me, I can get down from the throne. (big applause and yells) (some man makes an announcement in French) (general talk in French and many people yelling things out from the audience)

Jyotirmayī: He is saying two things. He is saying that when one wants to understand, he must act as a student.

Prabhupāda: Yes, that is good, very good. (people still yelling) Now let us chant Hare Kṛṣṇa. Chant. (end)
