General Lectures

The human being has got higher brain, higher brain capacity. That should be utilized not only for bodily comforts . . . bodily comforts, the animals, they are also trying. Bodily comforts means to eat, sleep, to have sense gratification and to defend.

We have got higher intelligence than the animals. The animals also live on this land, but they cannot utilize their intelligence for constructing a nice building, nice garden or industry or trade or car, because they have no brain. But the human being has got higher brain, higher brain capacity. That should be utilized not only for bodily comforts . . . bodily comforts, the animals, they are also trying. Bodily comforts means to eat, sleep, to have sense gratification and to defend. So that is being (done) by the animals also, in their own way. So if we simply devote our time for these animal necessities of our life, then we are no better than animals.

The higher intelligence should be utilized to know God or Kṛṣṇa. When we say: "Kṛṣṇa," Kṛṣṇa means God. Simply, generally to say God, but we give "Kṛṣṇa," the actual name of God, the actual residence of God, the actual activities of God, actual form of God, actual associates of . . . so many things we give. So simply to know God . . . just like to simply to know one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, mathematic. Mathematic means nothing but one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine. That's all. Now you can exchange in different ways—it becomes different number. But actually it is one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight.

So simply to know one, two, three, four, five, six, just like your daughter chants "One, two, three, four, five, six, nineteen, eighteen," so that is not sufficient. You must know higher mathematics, how to adjust this one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine. That is higher mathematics.
