&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Prabhupāda: Yes, that is (inaudible). Simply by knowledge... Knowledge you must have, but simply theoretical knowledge... Practical manifestation that he&amp;#039;s a great devotee. Whenever there is any doubt or question, he will prove by the evidences of śāstra.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Prabhupāda: That means they do not follow any practical. That is their rascaldom. Nothing practical means they do not know what is the practical realization of God. That is their ignorance. And still they are claiming to be teachers. That is cheating. Just like these so-called scientists, they are theorizing, but they cannot practically prove. Therefore, their knowledge is imperfect. Bahūnāṁ janmanām ante jñānavān māṁ prapadyate ([[Vanisource:BG 7.19|BG 7.19]]). Jñānavān, the wise, after many, many births&amp;#039; cultivation of knowledge, when he surrenders, that is practical. Simply knowledge is useless, theoretical. When he practically surrenders, that is end of knowledge. That is perfection.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

When your knowledge is applied practically in life, just like yajñārthāt karmaṇo &amp;#039;nyatra. This knowledge is theoretical, that one has to work only for yajña. Yajñād bhavati (indistinct). This things are there. So everyone should act for yajña.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div class=&amp;quot;heading&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Unless they appreciate Kṛṣṇa consciousness, how they take up this job? This is practical. There is no question of theoretical.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Śyāmasundara: Yes, that&amp;#039;s the point.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Prabhupāda: By the result, not theoretical.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Śyāmasundara: No. So we were showing pictures and books.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Prabhupāda: Hmm. Every sane man should appreciate. When European and American young men, who are after material sense gratification, they&amp;#039;re taking sannyāsa, it is not joke. They should appreciate it. In an age where material sense enjoyment is very prominent, and they give up everything for Kṛṣṇa, and they&amp;#039;re going far away from their comfortable position... Just like Brahmānanda has gone to Africa. So what for? Unless they appreciate Kṛṣṇa consciousness, how they take up this job? This is practical. There is no question of theoretical.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
