Srila Prabhupada - You are not this body (4K, Enhanced)

So, past, present, future you exist, the body changes.
This is not clear?
It’s clear.
Yes.
So, therefore, the conclusion is that when he will not have this body, he will have another body.
You are sitting here, if you don’t sit here, you go.
That does not mean your sitting opportunity is lost.
You are sitting here, you’ll sit somewhere else.
Similarly, the change of body is going on.
Therefore, the conclusion is that after you give up this body, you’ll have another body.
As you have already done.
What is the difficulty to understand?
The seeming difficulty is that one…
While the body is from that of a boy…
Different body. Therefore, that is called a change of body.
Unless it is a different body, where is the change?
The memory is there.
Of the boy and… The spirit…
Memory. Sometimes we may not remember.
Just like your, this child, he may not have a memory when he was very small.
But you have got memory.
When he was a small child, he was doing something.
He was playing with some cats and dogs, but he does not remember that.
But you remember it.
So simply because he has forgotten, it does not mean that the incidences were not present.
So this argument is not very strong because I cannot remember.
You do not remember so many things.
But the fact is this – that you are changing from this body to this body to this body…
Therefore, the conclusion should be that after this body, I’ll accept another body.
That’s a fact.
As you have accepted, in this life, from one body to another body.
There is a process, how to accept.
Similarly, under the same process, you accept another body when this body is no longer useful.
Just like at night, you give up this body,
you take your subtle body, and you go somewhere.
You are sleeping in your room, but you are working in a different place.
Don’t you do that?
So, because this body is still useful, therefore you come back again in this body.
In the morning, you wake up, in this body.
So death means when this body is useless,
it will not come to this body, we accept another body.
This is called death.
That subtle body takes you from this body to the womb of another mother.
By nature's direction that this soul shall get this kind of body.
So the soul is entered in the womb of another mother’s body.
And then the body is prepared.
By the mother's blood and flesh.
And when the body is sufficiently capable of working itself, then it comes out again.
And begins his work.
This is birth and death.
The soul is eternal.
Therefore, a sober man should think, 'Why should I change my body?'
'Why this struggle should I take?'
That is human sense.
If I am eternal, why not my eternal body?
Eternal existence, why shall I die?
This is human sense.
Unless one comes to this understanding, he is an animal.
Because the animal, by nature's law, is going on.
He does not know.
Then a human form of body, when you understand that I’ll have to change this body.
I’ll have to get another body.
Then the question is: 'What kind of body I shall get?'
That is human intelligence.
By nature's way, we are getting a body,
but that is on the selection of nature according to my work.
If I work like an animal, I get an animal’s body.
If I work as a demigod, I get a demigod's body.
If I acted as trees, then you get a tree body.
If he acted like a dog, he will get a dog's body.
Nature’s way.
Therefore, you find so many varieties of bodies.
This philosophy does not appeal?
Naturally, I want to love.
It is not unnatural.
