Prabhupāda: No, accept or not accept, the whatever is description there in Bhāgavatam, we are accepted.
Harikeśa: So we should not try to meet these scientists on any scientific platform? Rather, on. . .
Siddha-svarūpa: Why not on the platform of not being the body? Why should you. . .
Prabhupāda: Yes.
Siddha-svarūpa: Why not speak on what we're trying to speak about, instead of overly indulge in that which is beyond debate actually?
Prabhupāda: Yes.
Siddha-svarūpa: Ask them, "Are you the body?" If they say, "Yes," and then ask them to show how.
Prabhupāda: Just like here in America I have come to preach Kṛṣṇa consciousness. I am not interested for sight-seeing. That is not my business. Whatever you say, "It is here like this," "All right." That's all. Finished. Why should we try to confirm it? Whatever you say, that's all right. Now, we are seeing the other party; if somebody there, "It is like this," that's all right. I'm not going to test it. So what is the use of arguing? I have no interest.
Siddha-svarūpa: The materialists, they want to argue on the platform of material arrangements, and there's. . .
Prabhupāda: That is useless.
Siddha-svarūpa: Yes.
Prabhupāda: What he will gain by such argument? You are not going there, neither you are interested for going to the moon planet. For knowledge' sake it is stated in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, and everyone is. . . Just like when we speak of the hell, everyone is little anxious, "Where are the hell?" So that is described. In the down this universe there are lokas.
Harikeśa: So in other words, it would make no. . . It would be not a very good program to get some understanding from Vedic astronomy, lets, say, some expert Vedic astronomers.
Prabhupāda: Yes.
Harikeśa: It would not be a good program. . .?
Prabhupāda: No, what benefit you will derive there? Your problem is that if at the time of death you can remember Kṛṣṇa, then it is success. We are not going to any other planet. Yānti deva-vratā devān (BG 9.25), let them go. We are not interested.
