<p>Prabhupāda: Yes, let them manufacture a seed. From that seed a big tree will come.</p>
<p>Rāmeśvara: They cannot do that.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Then?</p>
<p>Candanācārya: Some devotees are saying that cockroaches are coming from the vapors of impure things.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes, they come. That is called sveda-ja. Just like from perspiration, bugs are coming out. Sveda-ja.</p>
<p>Rādhāvallabha: So isn't that life coming from matter?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Not matter. From matter is not coming, but they are taking birth.</p>
<p>Hari-śauri: That's the atmosphere that they get born into.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes.</p>
<p>Rādhāvallabha: So are they coming from eggs, or how are they coming? Just the soul enters the dirt?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No. Just like it is a suitable circumstance from which the living entity makes his body.</p>
<p>Rādhāvallabha: But how has the cockroach been formed?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Just like embryo. The living entity comes of the two secretions of father and mother emulsified. It creates a situation so that he can stay there and develop a body.</p>
<p>Rādhāvallabha: But it requires some emanation from a cockroach body in order to create another cockroach body. So how can a cockroach body be created from vapors without contact of another cockroach?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No, no. Vapor does not create. The individual soul comes there according to his karma and, in that condition, he develops his body. Karmaṇā daiva-netreṇa jantur dehopapattaye ([[Vanisource:SB 3.31.1|SB 3.31.1]]).</p>
<p>Rāmeśvara: So the seed of.... The soul is within the vapor?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: The seed, when it is put into the earth, a situation is created so the soul can develop into a tree.</p>
<p>Rādhāvallabha: But how would the soul develop a particular body...?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: That is Yamarāja is.... We are reading the Yamarāja incident(?). That's all.</p>
<p>Puṣṭa Kṛṣṇa: Just like how can a living entity take birth in the fire?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Hmm?</p>
<p>Puṣṭa Kṛṣṇa: The argument is that how can an entity take birth in perspiration? His question. So how can a living entity take birth in the fire? Mostly our experience is that entities are taking birth from the earth, but according to the understanding...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: So how the fishes are born in the water? How the other living entities, they remain in the air? Or without air? There are five elements: earth, water, fire, air.... Anywhere, the living entities can take birth. Sarva-ga. Sthāṇur sarva-gataḥ acalo 'yam. You read all these words of Bhagavad-gītā. Sarva-ga. From anywhere, he can take birth.</p>
<p>Devotee: Do the living entities who are born from perspiration require a mother and father?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No. No. There is mother. That perspiration is mother.</p>
