'''Prabhupāda:''' . . . identified with this material body. This is material life. Actually, I am spirit soul. I am not matter. Everyone can understand it, because the theory that living condition is developed under certain material condition. Just like we see sometimes that one germ is coming out the stool.

	So people who are less intelligent, they say that the matter is producing a living being. There is another instance, ''vṛścika-taṇḍula-nyāya'' (''nyāya-śāstra''). Sometimes we see the scorpion is coming out from a heap of rice. So we are thinking that the rice is giving, generating, a life, and that is not fact. The fact is that the scorpions, they lay down eggs within the rice, and by the fermentation of the rice it . . . a small scorpion come out.

The fact is that the scorpions, they lay down eggs within the rice, and by the fermentation of the rice it . . . a small scorpion come out.

	So matter is not the cause of generating life. That's not a fact. Actually the living entity develops his body. Just like when there is sex intercourse, man and woman, the secretion mixes together; it becomes emulsified within the womb, and if the circumstances is favorable, then a living entity takes shelter of the secretion and the body develops. This is science. Not that the secretion itself in . . . generating the body, generating the life. No.		So matter is not the cause of generating life. That's not a fact.

	What is your statement? Wherefrom this earth has come? You have not created. But that kind of explanation . . . just like so-called philosophers and scientists say that there was a chunk, and it becomes burst out, and there becomes planets. And wherefrom this chunk came? You see? These nonsense things are going on. They are scientists. Wherefrom this chunk came? There was a chunk. Their . . . their origin of creation is a chunk. They don’t believe that it, it was created by Kṛṣṇa. A chunk created this such whole cosmic manifestation, and it is working so nicely and regularly and producing so many things—the origin is a chunk. You see?		What is your statement? Wherefrom this earth has come? You have not created.

They don’t believe that it, it was created by Kṛṣṇa. A chunk created this such whole cosmic manifestation, and it is working so nicely and regularly and producing so many things—the origin is a chunk. You see?

	So we are not so foolish we have to believe this rascal philosophy and scientific statement, "There was a chunk and there was creation." No. Here from the ''śāstras'' we understand that there is the original source of everything, ''janmādy asya yataḥ''. Then what kind of that original source? That is explained in the ''Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam: janmādy asya yato 'nvayād itarataś cārtheṣv abhijñaḥ'' ([[SB 1.1.1\|SB 1.1.1]]). That ''janmādy asya yataḥ'', that source, is a living entity with sense, not impersonal non-sense. ''Abhijñaḥ''. This word is used. The ''Vedānta-sūtra'' is explained by the ''Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. Bhāṣyaṁ brahma-sūtrānām'' (''Garuḍa Purāṇa''). The ''Vedānta-sūtra'' is known as ''Brahma-sūtra''.

Bhāṣyaṁ brahma-sūtrānām'' (Garuḍa Purāṇa). The ''Vedānta-sūtra'' is known as ''Brahma-sūtra''.

	So this is the natural commentary, or explanation, ''Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam''. Because in the ''Vedānta-sūtra'' it is said that the original source, there is original source, Brahman, ''athātho brahma-jijñāsā''. What is that Brahman? "Now inquire about Brahman." Now, whom it is spoken? To the human society. That in so many lives, lives after lives in the evolutionary process, if you, you have simply tried for maintaining your body, ''āhāra-nidrā-bhaya-maithunaṁ ca'' (''Hitopadeśa'' 25), but this life, this human form of life, don’t waste like cats and dog. Try to understand the Brahman. What is that Brahman? ''Janmādy asya yataḥ'' ([[SB 1.1.1\|SB 1.1.1]]). That Brahman is the supreme cause of everything.
