There is no educational system throughout the whole world how to understand the existence of soul, which is the prime necessity of understanding for the human being. A human being is not meant for wasting his time like animals, simply eating, sleeping, mating and defending. That is animal life. The extra intelligence of human beings should be utilized how to understand, "I am . . . what I am? I am a spirit soul.".

body means the senses, and above the senses there is&#10;the mind, which is very subtle, which is controlling the senses, and above the&#10;mind there is intelligence, and above the intelligence there is soul. We have&#10;no information, but if we practice this bhakti-yoga system,&#10;gradually we understand what I am.
&#10;&#10;
I am not this body. This, generally even big, big scholars,&#10;big, big philosophers, scientists, they are also in the concept of this body.&#10;Everyone is thinking, "I am the body," but that is mistake. We are&#10;not this body. Just I explain—body means the senses, but the senses are&#10;controlled by the mind, and the mind is controlled by the intelligence, and the&#10;intelligence is controlled by the soul.
&#10;&#10;
That you do not know. There is no educational system&#10;throughout the whole world how to understand the existence of soul, which is&#10;the prime necessity of understanding for the human being. A human being is not&#10;meant for wasting his time like animals, simply eating, sleeping, mating and&#10;defending. That is animal life. The extra intelligence of human&#10;beings should be utilized how to understand, "I am . . . what I am? I am a&#10;spirit soul."
&#10;&#10;
If we understand that, "I am spirit soul,"' that&#10;this bodily concept of life, which has played havoc in this world . . . on the&#10;bodily concept of life I am thinking "I am Indian," you are thinking&#10;"American," he's thinking something, something. But we are all one.&#10;We are spirit soul. We are all eternal servant of Kṛṣṇa, Jagannātha.
