In a statement delivered at a press conference in Los Angeles in December of 1968, Srila Prabhupada challenges the world’s intellectual leaders to review their definition of what constitutes life. In the background of this body you can find the soul, whose presence is perceivable by dint of consciousness. Similarly, in the universal body of the cosmic manifestation, one can perceive the presence of the Supreme Lord, or the Absolute Truth,   ...Read More

The Tiny World of Modern Science


During a morning walk in April of 1973, at Venice Beach, Los Angeles, Srila Prabhupada discusses modern science and its high priests: They claim to have millions of dollars worth of knowledge, but if you ask them a question, they simply give you a postdated check. Why should we accept it? They cannot even produce a spear of grass through their biological or chemical experiments. Nonetheless, they are claiming that the creation is produced by some chemical or biological method. Why does no one question all this nonsense?   ...Read More

Letter to Scientist — Life Comes From Life

Filed under Letters, Science


If we can prove that life comes from life, or the soul is from the supper soul, then all other things can be brought into serious consideration. So you try to prove that chemical combination can never bring about life, this is our main argument. If we can prove this, gradually we can prove that vedic knowledge is perfect.   ...Read More

We are discussing Darwin and other scientists. Because they have missed the central point that we are not the controllers of nature, rather we are controlled by nature, and because they do not see that there is a Supreme Controller, therefore their vast research and display of intelligence is only so much waste of time.   ...Read More

DARWINISM–A Crumbling Theory


Charles Darwin stood on a very slippery slope when trying to explain how something as biologically and biochemically complex as even the simplest form of life could have spontaneously generated itself from organic molecules and compounds loose in the early Earth’s environment. Because that part of Darwin’s theory has always been glaringly specious, moden Darwinists get hammered about it from all sides, including from the likes of me…   ...Read More
