Bhagavad-gita As It Is Lectures

Out of many millions of these religious person, some of them know what he is, "I am not this body." Now, simply theoretically knowing that "I am not this body, I am spirit soul," that is not perfect. You have to actually become liberated from the material entanglement. That is called mukti, liberation. So out of many thousands of persons who are in the knowledge what they are or what he is, some of them are actually liberated. Liberated. And out of many thousands of people who are liberated, they can understand what is Kṛṣṇa.

Those who believe in scriptures, they adopt—not all. Just like I explained that mostly people, they simply accept a certain faith. Mouth, in mouth only. Actually, they do not do anything. Do not do anything. So out of that many millions of people like that, somebody are religious, really religious, who perform this sacrifice, charity and penance. So Lord Caitanya says: "Out of many millions of persons who are actually engaged in charity, and," I mean to . . . "penance and sacrifice, some of them become in perfect knowledge what he is."

So this knowledge is . . . just see how He's making analytical study of the living entities. Beginning from eighty-eight, er, eight hundred . . . 8,400's millions species of life, He's selecting only few human civilized life—then addicted to the, I mean to say, certain kind of faith—then extracting them who are actually believing; and then those who are actually believing. Out of them, those who are sacrificing, making charities and adopting penances, out of many millions of like, persons like that, some of them are actually in knowledge what he is. You'll find in your country also. There are many foundations, they are making charities. But hardly you'll find amongst them that he knows that what he is.

So out of many millions of these religious person, some of them know what he is, "I am not this body." Now, simply theoretically knowing that "I am not this body, I am spirit soul," that is not perfect. You have to actually become liberated from the material entanglement. That is called mukti, liberation. So out of many thousands of persons who are in the knowledge what they are or what he is, some of them are actually liberated. Liberated. And out of many thousands of people who are liberated, they can understand what is Kṛṣṇa.
