<span class="link">[[Vanisource:Radio Interview -- March 12, 1968, San Francisco|Radio Interview -- March 12, 1968, San Francisco]]: </span><div class="text"><p style="display: inline;">Interviewer: Then there is a similarity to Catholicism. The priest is supposed to be celibate.</p><br />
<p>Prabhupāda: Certainly. Anywhere there is spiritual conception, sex life is not indulged. Anywhere, either it may be Christianity or Hinduism... Sex life is materialism. That is opposite number of spiritualism. So people are trained gradually to refrain from sex life. And in the sannyāsa life he's completely trained. Therefore he's allowed to move in the society for preaching spiritual education.</p><br />
<p>Interviewer: The whole world has heard of the Maharishi Mahesh. Is he part of your order?</p><br />
<p>Prabhupāda: No. I have heard so much in the paper.</p><br />
<p>Interviewer: He is the world's most famous guru at the present time.</p><br />
<p>Prabhupāda: He's not guru. But he's advertised his name like that (laughs). A guru is different thing. But people are, in your country, in the western part of the country, of the world, people are after some spiritual information. So anyone who comes professing as spiritualist, he is welcome, and if he flatters, then it is very convenient to get followers. So we don't follow exactly in that way. We follow exactly the principles of Vedic ways of life. So in that way, sex life for a sannyāsī is strictly prohibited.</p><br />

<span class="link">[[Vanisource:Press Interview -- December 30, 1968, Los Angeles|Press Interview -- December 30, 1968, Los Angeles]]: </span><div class="text"><p style="display: inline;">Prabhupāda: (laughs) You see. That is our test. If you have developed... We don't say that you follow Christianism or Muhammadanism or Jewism or Hinduism—we don't say. Whether you are developing your love of Godhead. But they deny, "Oh, I am God. Who is God? I am God." You see? Everyone is taught nowadays that everyone is God. Just see how fun. Everyone is God. Do you think like that?</p><br />
<p>Journalist: You know from Meher Baba?</p><br />
<p>Prabhupāda: He is also another rascal. He is preaching this that everyone is God.</p><br />
<p>Journalist: He says he's God.</p><br />
<p>Prabhupāda: He's God. Just see. This is going on.</p><br />
<p>Journalist: Do you know him?</p><br />
<p>Prabhupāda: I have heard his name. I don't care to know these people. He's making some propaganda he's God.</p><br />
<p>Journalist: He says he hasn't spoken in forty years, forty-five years.</p><br />
<p>Prabhupāda: That means people do not know what is God. Suppose if I come to you, if I say I am President Johnson, will you accept me?</p><br />
<p>Journalist: No (laughing) I don't think I would.</p><br />
