This is our challenge, that the . . . there are millions and trillions of men and women all over the world, but they're not at all intelligent. This is our challenge. So the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement may be taken by others as crazy, or we challenge that "You are all crazy men." (laughter) Therefore we have got a little book, "Who is Crazy?" Because they're thinking that "These shaven-headed boys and girls are crazy," but actually they are crazy, because they have no intelligence. Why? They do not know what is spirit soul. This is the animal consciousness. Dogs, cats, they think that the body, they are the body.
- yasyātma-buddhiḥ kuṇape tri-dhātuke
- sva-dhīḥ kalatrādiṣu bhauma ijya-dhīḥ
- yat tīrtha-buddhiḥ salile na karhicij
- janeṣv abhijñeṣu sa eva go-kharaḥ
- (SB 10.84.13)
Go-khara. Go means cow, and khara means asses—a person who is bodily conscious, "I am this body." So 99.9% of the whole population of the world, they're like this: "I am this body," "I am American," "I am Indian," "I am African," "I am this . . ." And they're fighting just like cats and dogs, they fight, "I am cat, you are dog," "You are dog, I am cat." That's all.
