We are trying to mitigate all our miserable conditions of life. That is struggle for existence. We are scientist. We are discovering many counteracting processes to get out of distressed condition. But the difficult position, janma-mṛtyu-jarā-vyādhi, we are avoiding, because we cannot do anything. We cannot even . . . the so-called science, they cannot solve this problem. Although sometimes they falsely become proud that, "By science we shall become immortal," and so on . . . these things were tried before also by atheistic class of men like Rāvaṇa, Hiraṇyakaśipu.

If you become Kṛṣṇa conscious, then you can get a body . . . not get, you have already got the body, spiritual body. And upon that spiritual body, this material body has developed. Just like dress. Your coat is cut according to your body. Similarly, this materially body is cut 19:25 according to our spiritual body. So we have got our spiritual body. This material body is covering. Vāsāṁsi jirṇāni. Just like dress. Your shirt and coat is the covering of your real body. Similarly, this body, gross body and subtle body, made of material elements . . . The gross body is made of earth, water, air, fire, and the subtle body's made of mind, intelligence and ego. This is the shirt and coat. Within this shirt and coat, there is the soul.
