1. Make Vrndavana life

    So much land is lying, and these rascals are not developing. And they are making... What is that? Coal stone. Coal. They are interested with these bricks and stones, not green vegetables. Such a rascal government. Give them facility. We know how to do it. Annad bhavanti bhutani parjanyad anna-sambhavah, yajnad bhavati parjanyah [Bg. 3.14]. Let them engage in kirtana.
  2. Arjuna’s nonsense

    Arjuna says that "I'll not fight. I'll not fight with my relatives and brothers for the sake of achieving some kingdom. No, no, no." Now, for the ordinary man it appears to be: "Oh, Arjuna is very nice man, nonviolent. He's giving up everything for the sake of his relatives. Oh, what a nice man he is." This is ordinary calculation. But what Krsna says? "You are fool, damn fool number one." You see? And that we have already discussed. Asocyan anvasocas tvam prajna-vadams ca...

Tesam nidhanam pramattah pasyann api na pasyati. It is said in the Bhagavata that... Now, for example, suppose if you are preparing very nice thing, a nice, very nice house. All right. If somebody asks you, "Well, sir, why you are building such nice house?" Now, if you answer, "Yes,...
  5. Bubbles in the waves

    ...what is this manifestation in the course of this material world, so many things coming? Just like a bubble in the ocean. If you travel over the seas you will find so many waves are tossing each other, and so many bubbles are formed, and again it is submerged in the water -- no account of it.
  6. No fatigue in Krsna consciousness

    We have to work. Without working even our, this body and soul cannot go. It is a misconception that for spiritual realization he hasn't got to work. No, he has got to work more. Persons who are not for spiritual realization, they may be engaged in work for eight hours only, but those who are engaged for spiritual realization, oh, they are engaged twenty-four hours, twenty-four hours.
