If somebody understand the Supreme Absolute Truth, Personality of Godhead, he understands everything, because He is everything. So we should not make progress in the negative way, leaving aside . . . just like you do not know what you are. You are studying this body. If I do not find out who is the proprietor of the body, who is sitting in the body so that this body is so nice, fresh, and walking and moving . . . that you do not find. But you simply . . . you're studying . . . what is called? Physiological condition, anatomical condition and metabolism, this or that.

There is another verse in Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam that one may be very much expert to count even the atoms of the universe. You smash the universe and grind it into powder, and you just count all the atoms. That is possible. But still, it is not possible to understand the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Therefore who understands the Supreme Personality of Godhead, he understands everything. Tasmin vijñāte sarvam evaṁ vijñātaṁ bhavanti (Muṇḍaka Upaniṣad 1.3).

If somebody understand the Supreme Absolute Truth, Personality of Godhead, he understands everything, because He is everything. So we should not make progress in the negative way, leaving aside . . . just like you do not know what you are. You are studying this body. If I do not find out who is the proprietor of the body, who is sitting in the body so that this body is so nice, fresh, and walking and moving . . . that you do not find. But you simply . . . you're studying . . . what is called? Physiological condition, anatomical condition and metabolism, this or that.

There are so many big, big names. But a real, the proprietor of the body . . . the doctors are sitting, analyzing. But as soon as the soul passes, they cannot explain what happened, what happened to this meta . . . I mean to say, anatomy and physiology. They stand fools.

So this is going on. The essence of the thing, the essence of the manifestation, cosmic manifestation, they have missed. They're simply analyzing the outward cover. That's all. That sort of analysis is compared here as simply beating the bush. That's all. (laughter) It has no value.
