Snakelike Men!

Let them chant and take prasadam. Everyone will get. Then gradually, as a snake charming, by chanting, chanting, chanting, then they will be subdued. And that is guaranteed process. There is no doubt. Anyone, even a man is like a snake. In material world everyone is a snake -- envious. Snake is very envious. You are passing by the side, "Oh! You are passing by my side?" This is snake. No offense. Because he is passing -- he has got the poison -- he'll utilize it. This is snake. Without offense. If somebody hurts him or tramples him -- no. "Oh, you are so daring? You are passing? You do not know I am snake?" Sarpah krurah khalah krurah sarpat kruratarah khalah [Niti Sastra]. There are similarly men also. Unnecessarily they are envious, offensive. Unnecessary. They cannot tolerate others' opulence.

Don't Try To Approach Krsna Directly!

In an office, you cannot contact the proprietor directly. There are subordinate officers. Through them you have to take the proprietor's help. The office master is there. You have to satisfy the office master. You cannot directly approach the proprietor. If you satisfy the office master, then your promotion and other things is all right. I have got practical experience. One of my friend, he was working in office. So the proprietor was there, and many other employees were there. So that my friend, he suggested something to the proprietor, and the proprietor immediately dismissed him: "Oh, this man want to suggest me? Dismiss immediately. Give him his pay, he will go away.'' In that I have got practical experience. He later on became so sorry. So we should not try to approach directly Krsna. That is not good idea. Caitanya Mahaprabhu says, gopi-bhartuh pada-kamalayor
dasa-dasa-dasanudasah

śruti-smṛti-purāṇādi-

Devotional service of the Lord that ignores the authorized Vedic literatures like the Upaniṣads, Purāṇas and Nārada-pañcarātra is simply an unnecessary disturbance in society.

Sri Bhaktisiddhanta Vaibhava by Bhakti Vikasa Swami

Srila Prabhupada's Teachings

19 Jul 2023 11:07

If a poor man takes the guise of a philanthropist, he can give away only as much as he personally possesses. But the eternal treasure of the Vaisnava is directly Narayana. If Narayana gives Himself, He holds a little back. But the Vaisnava can give Narayana completely. He who possesses genuine knowledge of the whole entity [Krsna] is totally devoted to serving Krsna in all ways, and there is nothing comparable to the lotus feet of such a person.

A Perfect Picture Of Vedic Civilization!

One may engage in any business--material or spiritual--but the purpose should be the satisfaction of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. This verse presents a perfect picture of Vedic civilization. People training to become devotees should be respectful not only to the Supreme Personality of Godhead but also to those who are elderly in knowledge, who are Aryans and actual devotees of the Lord. An Aryan is one who does not boast, but is an actual devotee of the Lord. Aryan means "advanced." Formerly, those who claimed to be Aryans had to be devotees of the Lord.

The Defect Of Modern Civilization/ We Are On A Different Platform!

The modern civilization has trained up educated people in such a way that the more you think yourself, "I am this body - 'I am American,' 'I am Indian,' 'I am brahmana,' 'I am this, I am that' " - and you feel and act like that and create trouble like that - then you are called civilized. Is it not? Hmm? This is the defect of modern civilization. The more you keep yourself in the darkness of accepting this body as yourself - national feeling, social feeling, family feeling, community feeling - then... But we are speaking from a different platform. Our movement is Krsna consciousness. So Krsna begins His teaching from a different platform. He begins from the platform of the soul, dhiras tatra na muhyati. His teaching to Arjuna begins, first of all convincing him that "You are not this body.

*Our Conclusion!*

Our conclusion: that anyone who is not Krsna conscious, he is dogs, hogs, camels, asses, that's all. No brain. Animal. Animal has got brain: how to eat, how to sleep, how to have sex life. So these people, they have got brain for that purpose only. That is animal life. Actually, they do not know what is the aim of life, why people should be educated, why human society should be organized. They do not know.
