	So if we want to make solution of the problems of life, then we have to understand what I am. And unless this question arises in your mind—not only in your mind; everyone's mind—then we should . . . we must consider that whatever we are doing, that is our defeat, because we are doing everything in false consciousness.		So if we want to make solution of the problems of life, then we have to understand what I am. And unless this question arises in your mind—not only in your mind; everyone's mind—then we should . . . we must consider that whatever we are doing, that is our defeat, because we are doing everything in false consciousness.

	In the ''Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam'' it is said, ''parābhavas tāvad abodha-jātaḥ'' ([[SB 5.5.5]]). ''Abodha-jātaḥ'' means one who is born fool. Every one of us is a born fool. Why? From the beginning of our life I know that, "I am this body," although I am not this body. Therefore we are all born fools—everyone. And therefore, according to Vedic civilization, one has to take his second birth. One birth is made possible by conjugation of the father and mother. That birth is called animal birth. ''Janmanā jāyate śūdraḥ''. (''Prema-vivarta'')		In the ''Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam'' it is said, ''parābhavas tāvad abodha-jātaḥ'' ([[SB 5.5.5]]). ''Abodha-jātaḥ'' means one who is born fool.

And therefore, according to Vedic civilization, one has to take his second birth. One birth is made possible by conjugation of the father and mother. That birth is called animal birth. ''Janmanā jāyate śūdraḥ''. (Prema-vivarta)

	Everyone, by birth, is ''śūdra'', or the lowest class of man. And ''saṁskārād bhaved dvijaḥ'' (''Prema-vivarta''): "By reformation, one becomes twice-born." And what is that reformation? By understanding oneself, "What I am." ''Saṁskārād bhaved dvijaḥ''. ''Veda-pathād bhaved vipraḥ'' (''Prema-vivarta''): "And after twice . . . after his second birth, if he tries to understand the spiritual science, the science of God, then he is called ''vipra''." ''Vipra'' means quite cognizant. And ''brahma jānātīti brāhmaṇaḥ'' (''Prema-vivarta'') : "And when he understands that he is Brahman, he is spirit soul, then he becomes a ''Brāhmin''." Perhaps you have heard that in India the ''Brāhmin'' are called the topmost men of the society. Why? Because he knows that "I am Brahman; I am not this matter." ''Brahma jānātīti brāhmaṇaḥ''.

	So by understanding Brahman your position will be that ''prasannātmā'', you'll be joyful; ''na śocati na kāṅkṣati'', you will never lament any loss, neither you will hanker after any so-called gain, ''na śocati na kāṅkṣati''. ''Samaḥ sarveṣu bhūteṣu'', and you will look every living entity on the same level. ''Mad-bhaktiṁ labhate parām'' ([[BG 18.54 (1972)\|BG 18.54]]). In that stage of realization, you can understand what is God and what is your relationship with God.

	Therefore this movement is required at the present moment in the world. ''Ceto-darpaṇa-mārjanam'' ([[CC Antya 20.12\|CC Antya 20.12, Śikṣāṣṭaka 1]]). This will cleanse the status of your mental condition. ''Ceto-darpaṇa-mārjanaṁ bhava-mahā-dāvāgni-nirvāpaṇam''. And as soon as you understand yourself, then the whole problem—social, political, economical—everything will be solved, and gradually you shall realize your transcendental life.

	Your transcendental life is joyful. ''Ānanda-mayo 'bhyāsāt'' (''Vedānta-sūtra'' 1.1.12). Transcendental life means always full of joy, joyful. That is our nature. We are hankering after joyful life, but we do not know where to hanker, how to get it. By nature we are joyful. It is said in the ''Vedānta-sūtra'', ''ānandamayo 'bhyāsāt'' (''Vedānta-sūtra'' 1.1.12): "By nature a living entity is joyful." But my joyfulness is covered by this material understanding. So I have to remove this material understanding; then again I shall become joyful.		Your transcendental life is joyful. ''Ānanda-mayo 'bhyāsāt'' (Vedānta-sūtra 1.1.12).

	So this movement is very scientific movement, and we have got authoritative statements. You cannot defy authority, authority. As I have read the literature of this Unitarian Church, in one place he has denied authority, and in another place he has quoted so many authorities. So many authorities he has quoted. Why? If you deny authority, then why you quote other authority?		So this movement is very scientific movement, and we have got authoritative statements. You cannot defy authority, authority.
