1. Give to Krsna

    You are working as a medical practitioner. So you earn lakhs of rupees. Give to Krsna. That is tam abhyarcya. Then you become perfect. That is also confirmed in Bhagavata. Atah pumbhir dvija-sresthah [SB 1.2.13].

    Everyone is working according to varna and asrama. So svanusthitasya dharmasya. Anyone who is serving according to his dharma — an engineer, a doctor, or somebody else, according to his occupational duty he is serving — but he has to see, svakarmana tam abhyarcya samsiddhim labhate. It is Gita. And it is said, svanusthitasya dharmasya samsiddhih, perfection. What is that? Hari-tosanam. We have to see whether Krsna is satisfied. So you earn lakhs of rupees and give it to Krsna. Krsna said yat karosi, “Never mind what you are doing,” kurusva tad mad arpanam, “give Me it.” [laughter] And “No, no, no, sir. I’m serving You, but the money is in my pocket.”

    Just like these boys and girls are giving everything, whole life. Whole life. They do not ask even a single paisa from me that “My dear sir, please give me four annas. I’ll go to the cinema.” They are serving. Everything they have given. Like this Giriraja. He’s earning at least 50,000 per month. Not a single paisa, even fifty n.p. he does not keep. This is service. They are not poor. They’re earning, but everything for Krsna.

    Yes. Fifty-thousand. Because fifty members. Fifty members, eleven hundred rupees. He makes at least two, three members. If some day absent, average fifty. Fifty thousand. Not a single fifty n.p. he keeps. Not that everyone is earning fifty thousand, but even fifty hundred or fifty paisa, everything for Krsna. That is tam abhyarcya. And if you divide partially, “Some percentage for Krsna, some percentage for my sense gratification,” then Krsna says, ye yatha mam prapadyante tams tathaiva bhajamy aham [Bg. 4.11].

    Proportionately. If you have spent cent per cent of your energy for Krsna, Krsna is cent per cent for you. And if you have spent one percent for Krsna, Krsna is one percent for you. Responsive cooperation.

    This institution has advanced so much all over the world because we have got these boys who have dedicated everything for Krsna. Therefore it has so quickly advanced all over the world. They do not think of anything of personal. Svakarmana tam abhyarcya. Samsiddhir hari-tosanam [SB 1.2.13].
