Where is perfection? If it's perfect, then why are we dying?

Virabahu das : One interesting point I notice over and over is how Prabhupada has his own train of thought. It's so unexpected. He doesn't follow your train of thought. You are expecting something from him and For example, I told him how even the scientists, they acknowledge that whatever is created from Krishna is even better, although they don't say it's created from Krishna, but everything that comes from nature is better. So I told him, "They say that this body is the most perfect machine." But Prabhupada even didn't accept that and said, "Where is perfection?" I said, "But it's the most perfect machine. Not that it's perfect, but it's the most perfect machine." But Prabhupada said, "Where is perfection? If it's perfect, then why are we dying?" You see how Prabhupada took it from another angle.
