Hari-śauri: If President Nixon had written a commentary on the Bible, no one in America would accept it. So why should we accept Radhakrishnan's?

Prabhupāda: No, Radhakrishnan may say so, but who has accepted? You are, because you are a fool. Radhakrishnan might have declared that Kṛṣṇa is not God.

Who cares for Radhakrishnan? Daye mane nāpa ni more(?). "Nobody cares for him; he becomes leader." What is the value of such leader? If somebody cares for that person, then he's leader. Nobody cares for him; he's leader for you because you are a rascal. You do not know anything. So he may be leader for men like you, but India, nobody cares for him. Is it not? Who cares for Radhakrishnan?

Hari-śauri: Nobody mentions Radhakrishnan.

Rāmeśvara: Now in the Western countries, the standard of culture and education is coming from the idea of the Renaissance in Europe.

Prabhupāda: That is not culture. That is not culture. As soon as you change, that means it is not culture. It is mano-dharma, mental concoction. Culture is never changed, Renaissance and Fennaissance.
