Prabhupāda:

<div class="quote_verse">
:idaṁ hi puṁsas tapasaḥ śrutasya vā
:sviṣṭasya sūktasya ca buddhi-dattayoḥ
:avicyuto 'rthaḥ kavibhir nirūpito
:yad-uttamaśloka-guṇānuvarṇanam 
:([[Vanisource:SB 1.5.22|SB 1.5.22]])

So this is our mission, that find out the original cause. That is scientific research. All the scientist, they are trying to find out the original cause. That is advancement of education. They are analyzing, one after another. But till now, they could not find it out. Big, big scientists have tried, but they could not . . . only theory, "This is the original cause. This is the original cause."

But we do not depend on the theories. We depend on the Vedic conclusion. We do not require to make any research. Just like ordinarily we say there are 900,000 forms of body in the water. We get it from Vedic knowledge: jalajā nava-lakṣāṇi (Padma Purāṇa). Now, the biologists, let them confirm it or deny it. Because . . . they cannot confirm it, because their knowledge is experimental. Unless they find it actually, by actual experience, that there are so many living forms within the water, they cannot say "Yes." Neither they are able to find it out. Is it not the position? First of all, if we say to the biologists that, "There are 900,000 different forms of life or species within the water," they will say: "How it is you are affirming in, so positively, without experiment, without research?" They'll say. Then we'll ask, "Then you say." That they cannot say. This is their position. They'll say: "In future." Future, there is no question. You do not know now. Admit this. So this is their position. Therefore this experimental knowledge is always imperfect. Always imperfect. It cannot be perfect, because our experience, our power of perception, advancement of knowledge, they are imperfect. They are deficiency.

Therefore, for perfect knowledge you have to approach the perfect. We accept Lord Kṛṣṇa as the perfect, and His bona fide representative is also perfect. How he is perfect? Kṛṣṇa may be perfect, one may admit, but how His bona fide representative is also perfect? So the answer is the bona fide representative of Kṛṣṇa, he does not say anything beyond Kṛṣṇa. That is perfect. He may be imperfect, it doesn't matter. But he is receiving knowledge from the perfect, and he's simply repeating that knowledge. That is the instruction of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu. Yāre dekha tāre kaha . . . kaha kṛṣṇa-kathā. Yāre dekha tāre kaha kṛṣṇa-kathā.

<div class="quote_verse">
:āmāra ājñāya guru hañā tāra' ei deśa
:yāre dekha, tāre kaha 'kṛṣṇa'-upadeśa

You don't speak your upadeśa, your instruction. That is nonsense. What you are? That is the defect of the modern civilization. They simply want to instruct by his experience. But what is your experience? They're all imperfect.
