As soon as one become bereft of religion, he's animal. That's all. That is the difference between animals and man. They think to become polished animal is advancement of civilization. To become lion is advancement of civilization. "Because I am stronger than the dog, therefore I am civilized." Americans think like that. "Because we are stronger than the Chinese dog or Russian cat, therefore I am civilized" This is going on.

Jayatīrtha: . . . men from the University of Southern California wants to come and see you, the chairman and many of the members.

Prabhupāda: Oh. Then invite them and give them nice feast. Yes. Make arrangement. Time, whatever suitable time you will fix up, I . . .

Jayatīrtha: We'll discuss it with Upendra when is the best time. (break)

Prabhupāda: . . . ''hīna paśubhiḥ samānaḥ''. "As soon as one become bereft of religion, he's animal." That's all. That is the difference between animals and man. They think to become polished animal is advancement of civilization. To become lion is advancement of civilization. "Because I am stronger than the dog, therefore I am civilized." Americans think like that. "Because we are stronger than the Chinese dog or Russian cat, therefore I am civilized." (laughs) This is going on. "Because I am tiger, I am lion . . ." He doesn't think that after, "You be tiger or lion; you are animal." Just see. (break) . . . ''puruṣaḥ paśuḥ. Śva-viḍ-varāha uṣṭra-kharaiḥ'' ([[Vanisource:SB 2.3.19|SB 2.3.19]]). I think we were discussing this verse? ''Saṁstutaḥ puruṣaḥ paśuḥ''. (break)

Brahmānanda: . . . verse would you like to read from this morning?

Prabhupāda: Yes, Sixth Canto, Ajāmila. 

(break) (on walk) . . . got this coat?

Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Gurukṛpa Mahārāja. He got it made in Vṛndāvana.

Prabhupāda: Oh, yes. I see that. It is not American. (break) . . . umbrellas. (break) . . . this place?

Jayatīrtha: This is a place where they have social functions.

Prabhupāda: Oh. (break) So many dogs, "best friends." (break) . . . they have erased "No dogs on beach"—"Dogs on beach." (laughter) (laughing) Just see how lawful they are. (break) How many books are pending? Rāmeśvara?

Rāmeśvara: I think we have just added one more in the Sixth Canto since you have started translating it.

Prabhupāda: No, no. How many books are pending?

Rāmeśvara: Still about seventeen.
