Interview with a German Girl and Assorted Devotees -- March 30, 1975, Mayapur:

Haṁsadūta: So she . . . her next question is that in the last few days, approximately five hundred devotees have assembled here from all over the world. She says she knows that this is the birthplace of Lord Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, so therefore they have come. She knows that it is a holy place. She wants to know that even before Lord Caitanya's time, was it also considered to be a holy place?

Prabhupāda: Yes. It is perpetually holy place, but it is known since the birthday of Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu.

Haṁsadūta: (German)

Prabhupāda: (aside) Just wait one . . . (break) . . . the cat's and dog's body. The cats and dogs, they cannot understand that . . . that life is beyond this body. But in the human form of life one can understand. He has got such consciousness. So by nature's law, by evolution, we come to the human form of body to understand this. And if we do not utilize this knowledge for understanding our real identity, then we remain cats and dogs, and we become again cats and dogs. By nature's law I have been given this chance. If I do not utilize it properly, then again I become what I was before.
