<span class="link">[[Vanisource:Conversation with Yadubara (after seeing film) -- April 17, 1977, Bombay|Conversation with Yadubara (after seeing film) -- April 17, 1977, Bombay]]: </span><div class="text"><p style="display: inline;">Yadubara: We would like to try to get it in the schools, in high schools and colleges.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes. Yes. And ask them to read Bhagavad-gītā. They will get all information.</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: The movie should be given out with also a copy of Bhagavad-gītā along with it. To be a part of the film.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: You can give in this course(?) Bhagavad-gītā, Sanskrit, dehino 'smin yathā dehe ([[Vanisource:BG 2.13|BG 2.13]]). Or the English translation. You have got that abridged edition?</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: No, we don't have a copy of it here.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: How is that you don't have copy? Find out...</p>
<p>Yadubara: To show that on the film? At the end?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: It is best to impress them: "You read this book; you get all information."</p>
<p>Yadubara: It's a little bit difficult to change the film.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No. That I am suggesting. If it is difficult, that is another thing. But this should be.</p>
<p>Yadubara: It should be there.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: And actually, there is evidence.</p>
<p>Yadubara: What about reincarnation, Śrīla Prabhupāda? What about transmigration of the soul? 'Cause we were thinking to do that for a next film, because it seems like a very natural thing.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Transmigration, how it can be shown? The mind, intelligence, and ego you cannot see. But you will have to accept there is mind.</p>
<p>Yadubara: We have not really worked out any details.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Details, you cannot show it. It is so fine. Just like here is the sky, but you cannot see it. The mind is finer than the sky. The air is sky. (claps) That is sky. Where is the proof? (claps) That you cannot see. Śabda, sound. Sound is the sign of presence of sky. But you cannot see it. But it is there. (claps) This is the proof.</p>
<p>Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: It can be suggested only.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: That's all. Therefore śruti, which is beyond the sense perception, you have to hear it from authorities. That is knowledge. Who has seen it? These rascals... Who has seen it? So grossly educated they are. "Everything can be seen." Why everything? The same example we give. You have not seen your father. You have to hear, "Here is your father." That's all. That is the proof.</p>
<p>Yadubara: Just like in this last film, we suggested that there is a soul in the hand sequence—when the hands were always changing, and the body grows old. So the idea was that there is something that's not changing there. So in film there are certain techniques we can use to suggest, as Tamāla Kṛṣṇa Goswami said, certain ideas.</p>
