It is truth, fact,\nreality. One must understand Krsna in truth.\n\nWe have to give up this body, willingly or unwillingly. The day will come when we will have to submit to the laws of nature and give up this body.\nEven President Kennedy in his procession had to\nsubmit to nature’s law and change his body for\nanother body. He could not say, “Oh, I am the\nPresident; I am Mr. Kennedy. I cannot do that.”\n\nHe was forced to do it. That is the way that nature\nworks,\nThe purpose of our developed human consciousness is to understand how nature works. Aside from\nhuman consciousness, there is consciousness in dogs,\ncats, worms, trees, birds, beasts and all other species.\nBut we are not meant to live in that consciousness.\n\n'\n\n—'\n,\n:\n‘\n,\n\n‘\n'\n,\n,\n.\n\nThe Srimad-Bhagavatam says that after many, many\nbirths we have attained the human form of body.\n\n.\n\nNow we should not misuse it.
