Prabhupāda: Mūrti means form. So there are 400,000 different forms of human being. So either you take it as species or form, that is up to you, but in the śāstra it is said mūrti, mūrti. Just like elephant has got his murti, tiger has got his mūrti, the tree has got his mūrti, I have got my mūrti, you have got your mūrti. In this way there are 8,400,000's of mūrtis, and each mūrti there are millions and millions of the living being. This is our position. Is that clear? Yes. Mūrti. We take mūrti, form.

Devotee: Do . . . do we make the distinction between the mūrti of Chinese and American, or do we make the distinction between . . .

Prabhupāda: Yes. That mūrti is made according to his mentality. The . . . the nature's work is so perfect that, as you say, "The face is the index of mind." You can understand one's mind from the face. The mūrti is made like that. From the face, if one is very expert, he can understand by seeing the face what kind of man he is.
