Nowadays everything is seen through national consciousness. But in the Bhagavad-gītā you will not find anything as so-called nationalism or communism. That is spiritualism. We are discussing about spirit soul, not the Indian, American, Christian, Hindu. No. We have no business with this skin philosophy, that "Here is an American, white; and here is an African, black." No. We have no skin philosophy. Our philosophy: what is there within this black and white body. That is our philosophy.

Anyone who has taken birth in India, Bhāratavarṣa, because he has got the facilities, the Vedas—the Bhagavad-gītā, Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, Vedānta-sūtra—all these things are cultivated in India. So they have got the facilities, but at the present moment the people have become rascals. They have given up the Vedic knowledge. They are hankering after technical knowledge. That is India's main fault. Otherwise real knowledge is there, and Caitanya Mahāprabhu said that "Make your life perfect by understanding the Vedic knowledge, and distribute it."

These people are, all over the world, they are in darkness. It is not partiality, because I am Indian . . . (indistinct) . . . behalf, but actually it is a fact. If you have to . . . even a Chinese Communist gentleman, he wrote a book, I forget the name, in the New York University; I saw it. He has written in that book that "If you want to know about religion, then go to India." He has said that, although he is Communist. So actually, so our Bhagavad-gītā, Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, it is not meant for Indians only. That is not the idea. But nowadays everything is seen through national consciousness. But in the Bhagavad-gītā you will not find anything as so-called nationalism or communism. That is spiritualism. We are discussing about spirit soul, not the Indian, American, Christian, Hindu. No. We have no business with this skin philosophy, that "Here is an American, white; and here is an African, black." No. We have no skin philosophy. Our philosophy: what is there within this black and white body. That is our philosophy.
