<span class="link">[[Vanisource:Television Interview -- July 29, 1971, Gainesville|Television Interview -- July 29, 1971, Gainesville]]: </span><div class="text"><p style="display: inline;">Interviewer: The chanting of Kṛṣṇa's name, the Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra, seems to play a very important role in the profession of your religious belief. Right? In fact, I think I will ask you and some of your followers who are sitting here with us tonight a little bit later to chant the name of Kṛṣṇa.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes.</p>
<p>Interviewer: That probably would be a proper ending to this particular program. However, I'm still wondering, you know, about some of the aspects. In reading a little bit... I have not read much, of course, but in reading a little bit about your beliefs and your writings, your magazines, your publications...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: I may correct here that it is not my belief.</p>
<p>Interviewer: Well, as you interpret it in your writings. Let me put it that way. It seems to me, sir, that there is a very high emphasis placed on the relationship between the individual and God.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes, yes.</p>
<p>Interviewer: Much more so than upon the...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: That is for everyone.</p>
<p>Interviewer: Yes but more emphasis on that relationship than on the relationship between one individual and another individual. Am I right in that?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No. We have to establish first of all our lost relationship with God. You see? Then we can understand what is the relationship between one individual to another. If the central point is missing, then there is practically no relationship. Just like you are American. Another is American. Both of you, you feel American nationally because the center is America. So unless you understand God, you cannot understand what I am, neither I can understand what you are. So we have to first of all reestablish our lost relationship with God; then we can establish, talk of universal brotherhood. Otherwise there will be discrimination. Just like in your country, or any country, the national... National means a man born in that land. Is it not? But they do not take the animals as national. Why they have no right to become national? That is imperfect knowledge. There is no God consciousness. Therefore they think only the man born in this land is national, not others.</p>
<p>Interviewer: Yes. That is not necessarily based on the religious principles, of course, what you are talking about.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No, that is a philosophical principle. Religion without philosophy is sentiment.</p>
<p>Interviewer: Don't you think there are very good reasons for the existence of these rules and regulations in this respect?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes. Rules and regulations must be established on philosophy. Otherwise it is sentiment, defective. Religion without philosophy is sentiment, and philosophy without religion is mental speculation. They should be combined, philosophy and religion. Then it will be perfect.</p>
