# September 23 *Lectures from this day: 5 recordings* --- **[[spoken/720923mu.la|Nitāi Guṇa Mani Āmāra — September 23, 1972, Los Angeles]]** **Kṛṣṇa-kānti:** I'll go and get it. There's a cord that reaches in there and I didn't bring it because I wasn't expecting it, I have to go and get it. **Kṛṣṇa-kānti:** I figured out how to do it while I was gone. So don't think we'll put in the *mṛdaṅga* right now. --- **[[spoken/720923mw.la|Morning Walk — September 23, 1972, Los Angeles]]** **Karāndhara:** Like night is only night in relationship with today. Big is only big in relationship to small. Svarūpa Dāmodara: Yes it is delivered by time and space. Recalled five seconds or ten seconds it's relative so nothing is absolute. **Prabhupāda:** In psychology there is study brain substance. Brain substance of all men are not equal.

This is the process. *Mad-bhāvam āgatāḥ.* Our this human form of life is meant for going back to Kṛṣṇa, back to home, back to Godhead. This Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is giving information to the people in general how to make life successful. What is that successful life? To go back to home, back to Godhead. This is not our home. This material world, this is foreign country. We are... Just like I am traveling all over the world. My home is in India, but I am going to so many countries—Europe, America, Canada, Australia, Africa—but my home is in India. This is a crude example. Similarly, we are all part and parcel of Kṛṣṇa. *Mamaivāṁśo jīva-bhūtaḥ* [[bg/15/7|[Bg. 15.7] ]], Kṛṣṇa says. --- **[[spoken/760923sb.vrn|SB 1.7.26 — September 23, 1976, Vṛndāvana]]** **Pradyumna:** *Oṁ namo bhagavate vāsudevāya.

Where does it come from? I do not understand it." --- ## Letters - [[../../letters/1967/670923_brahmananda.md|Letter to Brahmananda, 1967]] - [[../../letters/1967/670923_gargamuni.md|Letter to Gargamuni, 1967]] - [[../../letters/1967/670923_himavati.md|Letter to Himavati, 1967]] - [[../../letters/1967/670923_rayarama.md|Letter to Rayarama, 1967]] - [[../../letters/1967/670923_satsvarupa.md|Letter to Satsvarupa, 1967]] - [[../../letters/1968/680923_yamuna.md|Letter to Yamuna, 1968]] - [[../../letters/1970/700923_bibhavati.md|Letter to Bibhavati, 1970]] - [[../../letters/1972/720923_kirtanananda.md|Letter to Kirtanananda, 1972]] - [[../../letters/1976/760923_giriraja.md|Letter to Giriraja, 1976]] - [[../../letters/1976/760923_rupanuga.md|Letter to Rupanuga, 1976]]
