We Are Misusing Our Intelligence - Prabhupada 0792



661202 - Lecture CC Madhya 20.119-121 - New York

The only this foolish, advanced, civilized man, under the name of so-called misusing the intelligence—which was given to him for realization of God—misusing for sense gratification, and therefore they are troubled. That is the whole problem. The world's problem is due to this forgetfulness. Īśād apetasya viparyayo 'smṛtiḥ. They have forgotten the protection of Kṛṣṇa, God. They think that "By this adjustment, we shall be able to protect." Nonsense. It is not possible. Can you protect yourself from death? No. Then what is your protection?
