One acts means

Conversations and Morning Walks

1976 Conversations and Morning Walks

One acts means he must act accordingly. If he does not act accordingly, that is his business. That's all.
Answers to a Questionnaire from Bhavan's Journal -- June 28, 1976, Vrndavana:

Puṣṭa Kṛṣṇa: Is there anyone actually outside of sanātana-dharma then?

Prabhupāda: If he thinks. Otherwise nobody is outside. If you think that you are not... There are so many rascals, they think that with the body everything is finished. But he may think so, but that is not fact. Similarly, if one thinks that "I am not sanātana-dharmi, I am Christian." You may think like that, but actually you are sanatanist. But if you think otherwise, you can think. Who can check it? When Kṛṣṇa says, na hanyate hanyamāne śarīre (BG 2.20), the soul does not annihilate after the destruction of the body, is it meant for the Hindus? Everyone. Everyone is a living entity, everyone is a soul, and he's eternal. And eternal means sanātana.

Hari-śauri: So it depends on how one acts as to whether he can be accepted as...

Prabhupāda: Then... One acts means he must act accordingly. If he does not act accordingly, that is his business. That's all.

Hari-śauri: Jaya, Śrīla Prabhupāda.
