Bhagavad-gita As It Is Lectures

He is revealing. Read Bhagavad-gītā. You understand Him. He is explaining Himself. What you want more?
Lecture on BG 4.13 -- Johannesburg, October 19, 1975:

Guest (3): Prabhupāda, if the essence of religion is to know God, how does He reveal Himself to you?

Prabhupāda: He is revealing. Read Bhagavad-gītā. You understand Him. He is explaining Himself. What you want more? Suppose if you want to know something about Me and I explain to you, "I am like this," then where is your difficulty? Where is your difficulty? You can conjecture that, "Swamiji may be like this, may be like that," and if I say, "All right, sit down. I shall explain what I am." Then where is the difficulty?

Devotee (3): You are incarnate. God is...

Prabhupāda: I am not incarn... I am giving this example. Anyone, if you want to know, if that person explains to you elaborately, then where is your difficulty to know the person? You said, "How can I know God?" You said? That is your question?

Devotee (1): Right.

Prabhupāda: But God is explaining Himself. Why don't you take advantage of it?
