<div class="heading">In the material world, as soon as you stop payment there is no service. Why? Because they, by serving Kṛṣṇa, they get transcendental pleasure. So the more you engage yourself in the service of the Lord, the more you become enthusiastic. There is no question of becoming tired. Just like I am old man. I have come from India. My age is seventy-six years. So still I am enthusiastic.

<span class="link">[[Vanisource:Arrival Lecture -- Gainesville, July 29, 1971|Arrival Lecture -- Gainesville, July 29, 1971]]: </span><div class="text"><p style="display: inline;">Prabhupāda: So as soon as we shall require any material things, the Kṛṣṇa will give us opportunity. But that is not very good proposal. In the material life, either your very rich man or demigod, or in the higher planetary system, or as insect or any royal person anywhere, the threefold miseries of material existence there must be. Every intelligent man should be aspiring for Kṛṣṇa only and should be satisfied as Kṛṣṇa likes him to do. That's all. This is Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement. You try to understand. Take to it. You'll be happy. That is our proposal.</p>
<p>So if anyone has got some question, you can ask.</p>
<p>Devotee (1): Anyone have any questions?</p>
<p>Woman Guest: It seems that most of the devotees are young people, persons under thirty, under twenty-five. Why is this so? Why hasn't the movement spread? Is this a deliberate thing, or why do you feel it hasn't spread to parents or to older people?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Why the young people go to university?</p>
<p>Woman Guest: I'm sorry?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Why in the university you'll find all the students are young boys and girls? Why?</p>
<p>Woman Guest: That's the age of education.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: That's the age of Kṛṣṇa consciousness (laughter). Old fools, they cannot change their opinion. (laughter)</p>
<p>Woman Guest: Why just in the last five years?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Because they have got now. Before this there was no such thing. Now they have got it, they're coming.</p>
<p>Woman Guest: Were you trying before then?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No. Before there was no such movement in your country.</p>
<p>Woman Guest: I know, I know. But why did you just now...</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: So now they have got the thing. They are wanting it. As they have got it, they are coming.</p>
<p>Devotee (2): How do you develop a service attitude in Kṛṣṇa consciousness?</p>
<p>Devotee (1): (repeats) How do you develop a service attitude?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: By service. In the material world, if you give service you become tired. But transcendental world, if you give service, you more become enthusiastic. Yes, more service. That is happening. I do not pay these boys. Rather, they pay me, and they engage the service. They pay and serve. In the material world, as soon as you stop payment there is no service. Why? Because they, by serving Kṛṣṇa, they get transcendental pleasure. So the more you engage yourself in the service of the Lord, the more you become enthusiastic. There is no question of becoming tired. Just like I am old man. I have come from India. My age is seventy-six years. So still I am enthusiastic. Still I am going everywhere, all over the world. Why? Kṛṣṇa's service is so nice. Even old man like me, he gets energy to work. And that's also without any salary. Kṛṣṇa's service is so nice that you try to engage yourself more and more. Then you'll get more and more Kṛṣṇa conscious, more enthusiasm. And this is spiritual. This is spiritual. Ahaituky apratihatā. This service cannot be checked by any material condition. That I have already explained. Other service, material service, will be checked by material conditions. But transcendental loving service of Kṛṣṇa will never be checked by any material condition. That is the test.</p>
