Hṛdayānanda: (translating) . . ."God and I are one person," what does he mean by that?
Prabhupāda: Yes, because everyone is spirit soul, and Christ is also spirit soul; therefore they are one.
Hṛdayānanda: (translating) He said, "In the beginning there was the word, and the word was God." What does this mean?
Prabhupāda: Means God was there; therefore He had His word. God is person; therefore He can speak. There are word, God's word. That means God is person. And because He's person, therefore He has His son, Christ. (break)
Hṛdayānanda: (translating) . . .God is light and that, within us, inside of us.
Prabhupāda: Yes. That everyone will say, one who is in knowledge. So if you follow Bible, you also get knowledge. That is knowledge. We are after seeing people that he has got knowledge of God. It is not a question of Bible or Bhagavad-gītā. We want that you become God conscious. That is our movement. In the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam there is no such mention as "Christian religion," "Hindu religion," "Muslim religion" or "Buddha religion." There are so many. . . No. Bhāgavata says, sa vai puṁsāṁ paro dharmo yato bhaktir adhokṣaje (SB 1.2.6): "That is first-class religion which helps one to love God." So we are propagating, teaching people how to love God. That is our mission. We don't say that you become Christian or Hindu or Muslim or. . . No. You become a lover of God. So comparatively, the process which we are recommending, that is the easiest process. That is admitted by one priest in Boston. He said that "These boys and girls are our countrymen, or our boys. Before this movement, they did not come to the church, and now how they are mad after God." So therefore this is the easiest process, to become pure and go back to home, back to Godhead.
