| And the next one is the “Deaf man”. A deaf man used to call for his wife. He would be in one room, she would be in the kitchen. So he used to call: “Wife please, come here.” And she would reply: “I am coming, just a moment.” But because he was deaf he couldn’t hear that, so he used to think: “This woman is deaf, I am calling, but she doesn’t come.” Then when she would come he would accuse her: “What’s wrong with you, you must be deaf.” But the fact is that he couldn’t hear. This is similar to the mass of people who are brainwashed by material illusion and they accuse the Krishna conscious devotees of being brainwashed.
