| "Anyone who is specifically favored by the Supreme Lord, the Personality of Godhead, due to unalloyed surrender unto the service of the Lord, can overcome the insurmountable ocean of illusion and can understand the Lord also. But those who are attached to the body, which is meant to be eaten up by the end by dogs and jackals, cannot do."
| | ''Naiṣāṁ mamāham iti dhīḥśva-śṛgāla-bhakṣye, śva-śṛgāla-bhakṣye'' ([[vanisource:SB 2.7.42|SB 2.7.42]]). Dead body, the dead body is thrown away to be eaten by the dogs and the jackals. So anyone who is identifying with this body, he cannot understand what is God. That is not possible. |

| (reading from purport:) "The unalloyed devotees of the Lord know the glories of the Lord in the sense that they can understand how great the Lord is and how great is His expansion of diverse energy. Those who are attached to the perishable body can hardly enter into the realm of science of Godhead. The whole materialistic world based on the conception of the material body as the self is ignorant of the science of God.

| "The materialist is always busy working for the welfare of the material body, not only of his own but also that of his children, kinsmen, countrymen, community men, etc. There are many branches of philanthropy and altruistic activities from the political, national and international angle of vision, but none of the fieldwork can go beyond the jurisdiction of the misconception of identifying the material body with the spirit soul. Unless, therefore, one is saved from the wrong conception of the body and the soul, there is no knowledge of Godhead, and unless there is knowledge of God, all advancement of material civilization, however dazzling, should be considered to be a failure." | | "The materialist is always busy working for the welfare of the material body, not only of his own but also that of his children, kinsmen, countrymen, community men, etc. There are many branches of philanthropy and altruistic activities from the political, national and international angle of vision, but none of the fieldwork can go beyond the jurisdiction of the misconception of identifying the material body with the spirit soul.

| Gaurasundara: Yes, as many as we can get. We don't get so many of these.
| |
|
| |
| Prabhupāda: Hmm?
| |
|
| |
| Gaurasundara: We don't receive very many of these Bhāgavatas. There's a shortage.
| |
|

| |
|
| |
| Prabhupāda: In our this main temple, how many rooms are there, in Hawaii?
| |
|
| |
| Gaurasundara: Oh, in Hawaii? Upper level there is four.
| |
|
| |
| Prabhupāda: What?
| |
|
| |
| Gaurasundara: In the top level there are four rooms and two baths, then on the main level there is a Deity room, temple room, the kitchen, one bath and a sculptor's room, where the Deities are made.
| |
