The Last Change Is Called Death - Prabhupada 0990



680508 - Lecture to Technology Students MIT - Boston

Just like within this body, when you were a child you were within this body—not exactly this body, but another body, which was so small. Now where is that body? That body is gone. You have got another body. So Bhagavad-gītā says, as we are changing body moment to moment, dehino 'smin yathā dehe (BG 2.13) Dehinaḥ means the soul, the spirit soul, who is embodied within this body, as he is changing body from moment to moment.

This is a fact, a medical fact, that you are changing body every moment. Similarly, the last change is called death. But we have to take . . . we have to accept another body. But we do not know what sort of body we are going to accept.
