Prabhupäda: Sweet will help you digest. Don't give three-at least four.
George Harrison: I won't be able to eat much more.
Prabhupäda: Three is given to the enemy. According to our Indian system, if
you give somebody three, that means he is enemy.
George Harrison: Oh, really? I always liked the number three.
Prabhupäda: (laughs) You must give at least four.

============ REF. Conversation with George Harrison -- July 26, 1976, London

Reincarnation

The Goal of Human Life

Srila Prabhupada: The goal of human life is self-realization, or God
realization, but the scientists do not know that. Modern society is presently
led by blind and foolish men. The so-called technologists, scientists, and
philosophers do not know the real aim of life. And the people themselves
are blind as well; so we have a situation in which the blind are leading the
blind. If a blind man tries to lead another blind man, what type of results
can we expect? No; this is not the process. One must approach a self-
realized person if he wants to understand the truth.

[More guests enter the room.]

Disciple: Srila Prabhupada, these gentlemen are professors of theology and
philosophy. And this is Doctor Dara. He is the leader of a society for study
of
yoga and integral philosophy here in Germany.

[Srila Prabhupada greets them and the conversation resumes.]

Prof. Durckheim: May I ask another question? Isn't there another level of
experience that opens the door to some deeper consciousness for the
common man?

Srila Prabhupada: Yes. That experience is described by Krsna in Bhagavad-
gita [2.13]:

dehino 'smin yatha dehe
kaumaram yauvanam jara
tatha dehantara-praptir
dhiras tatra na muhyati

"As the embodied soul continually passes in this body from boyhood to
youth to old age, the soul similarly passes into another body at death. The
self-realized soul is not bewildered by such a change."

But first one must understand the basic principle of knowledge -- that I am
not this body. When one understands this basic principle, then he can
advance to deeper knowledge.

Prof. Durckheim: It seems to me that there is a big difference between the
Eastern and Western approaches to this problem of body and soul. In the
teachings of the East, you have to become free of the body, whereas in
Western religions, a person tries to realize the spirit within the body.

Srila Prabhupada: This is very easy to understand. We have heard from
Bhagavad-gita that we are spirit, that we are within the body. Our sufferings
come about because of our identification with the body. Because I have
entered into this body, therefore I am suffering. So, either Eastern or
Western, my real business should be how to get out of this body. Is that
point clear?

Prof. Durckheim: Yes.

Srila Prabhupada: The term reincarnation means that I am a spirit soul who
has entered a body. But in my next life I can enter another body. It may be
a dog's body, it may be a cat's body, or it may be a king's body. But there
will be suffering -- either in the king's body or in the dog's body. These
sufferings include birth, death, old age, and disease. So in order to abolish
these four kinds of suffering, we have to get out of the body. That is man's
real problem -- how to get out of his material body.

Prof. Durckheim: This takes many lives?

Srila Prabhupada: It can take many lives, or you can do it in one lifetime.
If
you understand in this life that your sufferings are due to this body, then
you should inquire how to get out of the body. And when you get that
knowledge, you will know the trick -- how to get out of the body
immediately.

Prof. Durckheim: But that doesn't mean that I have to kill the body, does it?
Doesn't it mean that I realize my spirit is independent from my body?

Srila Prabhupadaa: No; it isn't necessary that the body be killed. But
whether your body is killed or not, someday you will have to leave your
present body and accept another one. That is nature's law, and you cannot
avoid it.

Prof. Durckheim: It seems that there are some points here which are in
accordance with Christianity as well.

Srila Prabhupada: It doesn't matter whether you are Christian, Muslim, or
Hindu. Knowledge is knowledge. Wherever knowledge is available, you
must pick it up. And this is knowledge -- every living being is imprisoned
within a material body. This knowledge applies equally to Hindus, Muslims,
Christians -- everyone. The soul is imprisoned within the body and must
therefore undergo birth, death, old age, and disease. But we all want to
live eternally, we want full knowledge, we want full blissfulness. To attain
this goal we must get out of the body. This is the process.

Professor Dara: You stress the point that we must get out of the body. But
shouldn't we accept our existence as human beings?

Srila Prabhupada: You propose accepting our existence as human beings.
Do you think that existing within this human body is perfect?

Prof. Dara: No, I don't say it is perfect. But we should accept this and not
try to create some ideal situation.

RADHABALLABHA KACHORIS

ghee for deep frying
cayenne pepper
1 cup of cleaned, split urad dahl
asafoetida
2 cups white flour
salt
2 T. freshly ground anise seed
butter or ghee solids

Wash urad dahl thoroughly. Soak in water overnight. Drain, leaving a tiny
bit of water. In a blender, grind urad dahl until it is a smooth paste,
adding a little more water if necessary. The paste should be very thick.
Set aside. Add anise seed to paste. Using white flour, butter or ghee
solids and water, make a soft dough, like puri dough. (Not wet.) Let the
dough sit for one hour under a dampened cloth. Meanwhile prepare three very
small bowls in the following manner:

1.  Put in a mixture of 1 T. water and 1/2 t. asafoetida.
2.  Put plain salt in the second.
3.  Put cayenne pepper in the third.

Pinch off balls of dough one inch in diameter. Roll them out into circles
of 2 1/2" (inches) in diameter. Pinch off a ball of kachori paste about one
inch in diameter; dip into each of bowls in succession, and place in the
center of the circle of kachori dough. Gather up the dough around the paste
as you would gather a paper bag. Make sure all the urad dahl is covered,
and seal the top edge very well using a little water. Flatten the sealed
kachori with a rolling pin, and then roll gently as you would a puri or
capati.

Be very careful not to break the surfaces. If necessary, pat them out by
hand. Deep-fry the kachori in fairly hot ghee as you would a puri. Stand up
kachoris on paper toweling to drain. Before offering them, refry very
quickly, but do not brown.

This preparation is one of Srimati Radharani's favorites and is always
prepared for Her appearance day. There is nothing in the material world to
compare with the flavor of Radhaballabha Kachoris.

Science Jokes:

Some tourists in the Chicago Museum of Natural History are marveling at the
dinosaur bones. One of them asks the guard, "Can you tell me how old the
dinosaur bones are?"

The guard replies, "They are 3 million, four years, and six months old."

"That's an awfully exact number," says the tourist. "How do you know their
age so precisely?"

The guard answers, "Well, the dinosaur bones were three million years old
when I started working here, and that was four and a half years ago."

I read in a newspaper in India in 1984 that when one atheistic scientist
from the former Soviet Union came to Calcutta and was being driven in his
car across town. As he came through the busy Bara Bazaar area with the
cars, trams buses, trucks and rickshaws dodging each other tooting horns
without crashing he was heard to declare, "There must be a God, someone has
to be in control of this.................!"
