Prabhupāda: Now, there are five fingers—one, two, three, four, five. How they can merge into one?
Impersonalist: By realizing this.
Prabhupāda: Huh?
Impersonalist: By realizing this.
Prabhupāda: No. These are five fingers—one, two, three, four, five. So these . . . there are different, five fingers. How they can merge into one? What is the process?
Impersonalist: The name of the process.
Upendra: The name of the process?
Prabhupāda: No, no. Name or not name, how these five fingers can become merged into one? Tell me. Just like here is thing. All the five fingers capture it, it becomes one. Although they are five—one, two, three, four, five—they are one.
Impersonalist: Becomes one.
Prabhupāda: Yes. If the interest is one—to capture this—then it is one. That means to . . . you cannot lose your individuality. But if your interest is one, then you merge into. Do you understand? Just like you are all Australian. Why you are all Australian? Or you are all individual. How you become all Australian, merge into the Australian conception?
Because as Australian, you have one interest. So individuality cannot be killed. That is not possible. You are all individual. But when you make your interest one, then you merge into that thing. Each one of us, an individual person . . . what is your ideal, you all three? You are three persons. What is your philosophy, ideal? Vegetarian?
