<span class="link">[[Vanisource:Morning Walk at Marina del Rey -- July 14, 1974, Los Angeles|Morning Walk at Marina del Rey -- July 14, 1974, Los Angeles]]: </span><div class="text"><p style="display: inline;">Svarūpa Dāmodara: We were discussing that in all the living bodies, we have these innumerable cells, living cells. And in these cells... We were just discussing whether the Paramātmā and the jīvātmā is still there even in the living cells.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes. Yes.</p>
<p>Svarūpa Dāmodara: It is. It is there. So actually our body's a combination of these so many living entities.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Atoms, yes. Why not? The every living entity is one ten-thousandth part of the tip of a hair. So many hairs are there. And that is one ten-thousandth part of the top of the hair. Where is the difficulty.</p>
<p>Bali Mardana: So there is one jīvātma who's in control of the body. The others are subservient.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes. Jīvātma is everywhere. But you have got your own field. Just like for agricultural purpose you have got a big field, but there are so many millions of microbes and...</p>
<p>Bali Mardana: Yes.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: But it is your field. Not that when you go out of the field one of them becomes you. No, that is not. That is individuality. When you leave, you leave your field. That's all.</p>
<p>Bali Mardana: So when we leave the field, then the other cells in the body also leave their field.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes, therefore the germs come out as soon as it is proper time. So these nonsense, they do not know that, that the... Creating life, the ingredients... If they say that material combination makes life, so material combination is there already. Why the, that man is not coming? That is... He's individual, and they are also individual. I have got my field. I am individual. I leave it. But because there are so many other microbes, they will come as me. No, that is not possible.</p>
<p>Svarūpa Dāmodara: Yes, yes, but temporarily, I cannot live without them.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Eh?</p>
<p>Svarūpa Dāmodara: I cannot live in my body without them.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Without them... You cannot live with this material body without so many conditions. And that is also one of the conditions. You cannot live. Any condition, little disturbed... You become diseased; you become disturbed. So therefore it is called conditional life. You simply live here on condition. And spiritual life means no condition. If the condition is favorable, then your senses will act. Otherwise you have got useless senses. If there is light, then you can see. You can become proud of your eyes. "Can you show me God?" And what you can see, rascal? If God gives you light, then you can see. You see under condition. And still, he's very proud of his eyes. "Can you show me God?" This is going on. Rascal, what you can see?</p>
