Śyāmasundara: He says that even these mental objects have a real existence in my consciousness. As long as I’m thinking there’s a tiger about to pounce on me...
Prabhupāda: Yes.
Śyāmasundara: ...there is a tiger. There is a real object in my consciousness.
Prabhupāda: And because it is real object, it is reacting on my physical life.Conversations and Morning Walks

Prabhupāda: Mūḍha, ass. The ass works without any profit. So these are asses. Without coming to the right conclusion, they’re working hard, day and night, and spending lots of money. So mūḍhas. (pause) Why the scientists are searching out protons, neutrons? To find out the original cause. So they could not find the original cause. They see the middle work only, how the proton is working, neutron is working, atom is working. But wherefrom this arrangement came? How they are working systematically? They do not know. So what is their science?
Svarūpa Dāmodara: It is just like studying that shadow.
Prabhupāda: That’s all.
Svarūpa Dāmodara: But we know that there is a shadow. So there must be a real object.
Prabhupāda: Yes. Unless there is real object, there cannot be shadow. Now the sky is clouded. We cannot see above the cloud. Does it mean there is nothing? If somebody: “Oh, there is nothing (indistinct)”
Brahmānanda: All we have to do is fly up there, and it’s bright as sun.
Prabhupāda: Yes.Correspondence
