His Divine Grace Srila Prabhupada with some disciples
"The goal of human life is self-realization, or God realization, but the
scientists do not know that. Modern society is presently led by blind
and foolish men. The so-called technologists, scientists, and
philosophers do not know the real aim of life. And the people themselves
are blind as well; so we have a situation in which the blind are
leading the blind. If a blind man tries to lead another blind man, what
type of results can we expect? No; this is not the process. One must
approach a self-realized person if he wants to understand the truth." -His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada
