We are teaching our students that practice, this Kṛṣṇa consciousness, to change the consciousness. When you change your consciousness, you will see yourself, you will see God, everything.

It is said in the Bhagavad-gītā, Second Chapter—those who have got Bhagavad-gītā, they will see to it—that "Within this body there is soul, and the body is changing every moment." That is a fact. We say: "The child is growing." Growing or changing—practically the same thing. Actually, it is changing, because the former body is no longer to be found. It has accepted . . . the soul has accepted another body. This is going on from babyhood to childhood, from childhood to boyhood, boyhood to youthhood, then old age.

So just like I am old man. I can remember my childhood body, my babyhood body, my boyhood body, my youthhood body. So the body is no longer, but I am there. I am thinking that, "I did do like this. I was playing like this, with my body." But that body is gone, but still I am there.

Therefore it is naturally surmised that when this body will not be existing, I will be existing. I will accept another body. This is very logical conclusion. As I am changing so many bodies, still I am there. I can understand that I changed my body. I was so little. Now I have grown up. I am old. But I am there. Similarly, it is concluded, when this body will not be there, but I will accept another body.

This is very easy to understand that, that "I" is . . . now, we can perceive, but when you are spiritually emancipated, you will see yourself, God also, and everything spiritual. That requires time. That requires practice. And we are teaching our students that practice, this Kṛṣṇa consciousness, to change the consciousness.

When you change your consciousness, you will see yourself, you will see God, everything. Yasmin vijñāte sarvam etaṁ vijñātaṁ bhavati (Muṇḍaka Upaniṣad 1.3). When you are in that spiritual platform, everything will be known to you. But before that, if you want to know, that is not possible. Yes?
