Our point is that as this hankering after sex or the opposite sex is natural, it doesn't require to be educated, similarly, krsna-bhakti is also natural

It will be hankering. There will be hankering for sex. So if there is ready husband, then the girl is sent. That is the psychology.

So our point is that as this hankering after sex, or the opposite sex, is natural—it doesn't require to be educated—similarly, ''kṛṣṇa-bhakti'' is also natural. It is not that because we have established this temple and people are here . . . of course, there is practice, but that practice is also very simple. Simply you have to hear. That's all. It doesn't require any gymnastic. Just like in other yogic process, ''haṭha-yoga'', you have to learn so many things: ''yama'', ''niyama'', ''dhyāna'', ''dhāraṇā'', ''āsana'', ''prāṇāyāma'', so many things. But here there is no need. Simply sit down and hear about Kṛṣṇa. That's all.

But that hearing must be from a person who is realized. Then it will act. ''Kṛṣṇa-bhakti nitya-siddha sādhya kabhu naya'', ''śravaṇādi-śuddha-citte'' (''Hari-bhakti-vilāsa''). By hearing, the more your heart will be cleansed of all material infection you will understand what is Kṛṣṇa.

Krsna expanded Himself as the boys and calves with the same individual way of acting, the same tendencies, the same color, the same dress, and so on, for Krsna manifested Himself with all these differences. This was Krsna's opulence

Every individual is different. There are even differences between twin brothers.

:sat-saṅgān mukta-duḥsaṅgo
:hātuṁ notsahate budhaḥ
:kīrtyamānaṁ yaśo yasya
:sakṛd ākarṇya rocanam
<p>Prabhupāda: Where it is quoted from?</p>
<p>Pradyumna: Quoted from Bhāgavatam, Śrīmad Bhāgavatam, 1.10.11.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Eh?</p>
<p>Pradyumna: First Canto, Tenth Chapter, Eleventh Verse.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Make note there.</p>
<p>Pradyumna: Translation?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes.</p>
<p>Pradyumna: "The intelligent, who have understood the Supreme Lord in association with pure devotees and have become freed from bad materialistic association can never avoid hearing the glories of the Lord even though they have heard them only once."</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Hm. So this will protect you from the influence of māyā. Read that again.</p>
<p>Pradyumna: Sanskrit or translation.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Translation.</p>
<p>Pradyumna: "The intelligent, who have understood the Supreme Lord in association with pure devotees and have become freed..."</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: "In association with pure devotees." So if you are karmīs, then where is the..., What is the value of this association? Sat-saṅga. Sat-saṅga means assembly, discussion. Bodhayantaḥ parasparam, tuṣyanti ca ramanti ca. If you are not interested in association, discussion, then you are finished. So... karmīs, they are fools and rascals. When you have got this center, it is not that you should be engaged from morning till you go to bed for sense gratification. That is not life. That is karmī's life. You have no time for sat-saṅga, for association. You cannot make any progress by this sort of karmī's life. We have to work for organization, but not that whole day and night engaged and no sat-saṅga. That is a misguided policy, and it will spoil the whole structure. In Los Angeles, they regularly assemble during ārati and class. If this regulative principle is lost, then you are karmīs. They must come back by six o'clock, suspending all other duties, and assemble by seven o'clock. Joint mess program is not good. "You bring some money, you bring some money and spend us jointly for eating, sleeping." That is called joint mess. You know the joint mess? This word? What is that, meaning?</p>
<p>Brahmānanda: Well, it means... I thought it had something to do with civil servants, where they all live in a dormitory and eat in a large hall.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes, yes.</p>
<p>Brahmānanda: And they all contribute...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Yes.</p>
<p>Brahmānanda: ...part of their salary.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: So if you make that association, that will not help you. Joint mess, dormitory. Or joint family. Just like in India. There are five brothers. They're earning. Father and mother is the leader. They're handing over the money, and the father, mother managing. That is Indian system, a joint family. So joint family or joint mess, the same thing. So if you make like that, a center, then it is no good. You must get spiritual strength. Karmī strength will not help you. What they are doing in Babar(?) Road, these girls?</p>
<p>Guru dāsa: They're preparing some śṛṅgāra for Deity.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Why not here? Why go to Babar Road, spend twenty rupees?</p>
<p>Guru dāsa: According to them, that sometimes they have to go in the center of town.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Nobody has intelligence. It will not, it will not stay. It will be spoiled. Joint mess organization. In Los Angeles, they're also doing business. They're going to sell books. But regulative principle is observed. Huge expenditure they have got. No center is so improved as Los Angeles. We have purchased six houses. And I wanted immediately two lakhs, immediately sent. You cannot pay. You simply want to take. In India, nobody can pay. If I want two lakhs, nobody can pay. But all this money have been taken from U.S.A. I asked Bali Mardana, I asked Karandhara. They paid me for this Bombay affair, sixteen, eighteen lakhs. (break) ...and breathing also does not stop. It goes very slow. Therefore he cannot be immortal. And Bhagavad-gītā proposes, that is wonderful thing, if you can stop death. And whole spiritual life means how to stop death. That is Bhāgavata's instruction, "Don't accept guru, don't accept father, don't accept, or don't be father, don't be mother, don't be, if you cannot stop death." Either you don't accept, or don't become. Just like they want guru. So don't accept a guru who cannot stop your death. And from guru's side, it is advised, "Don't become guru if you cannot stop the death of your disciple." This is Bhāgavatam's statement. So our Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is to stop death, live eternally with Kṛṣṇa, go back to home, back to Godhead. This is our movement. So our guru gives us this opportunity, no more death.</p>
