A dog is eating only flesh, or meat, because God has ordained. But you are ordained to eat fruits, flowers, nice grain, milk preparation, but you, because you are dog, you are eating meat. The extra intelligence that. . . Because you have got extra intelligence, you should utilize the food for you. Tena tyaktena bhuñjīthā mā gṛdhaḥ kasya svid dhanam (ISO 1). The Upaniṣad, Vedas, says, "What you are ordained to take or accept. . . Everything belongs to God, but He has given allotment: 'You use like this. You use like this.' " So if you imitate dog instead of human being. . . You are advanced human being. Why should you eat like dog or the uncivilized man? The uncivilized man in the jungle, he does not know how to produce grain, how to prepare many nice preparation. He does not know. But you are civilized man. Why you should eat like dogs and tigers? This is misuse of intelligence.

The Yamadūtas, they very politely submitted. They could&#10;understand immediately that these persons so nicely decorated, four hands,&#10;looking very youthful, all the good qualities. . . So with due submission, they&#10;said that "You look so nice, gentle. Why you are interfering with our&#10;duties?" Kim arthaṁ dharma-pālasya kiṅkarān no niṣedhatha ([[Vanisource:SB 6.1.34-36|SB 6.1.36]]).&#10;So they accepted the submission. Very humbly they submitted, with great&#10;respect. Therefore they were smiling. And the word is used here, tān&#10;pratyūcuḥ prahasya idam. When there is argument, dealing, if the words are&#10;exchanged very politely, so things go on nicely. So prahasya. Prahasya,&#10;now they are challenging, the Viṣṇudūta, that "You are claiming to become&#10;the servants of Yamarāja, and he is Dharmarāja, he is authority, and how is&#10;that you do not know whom to arrest and whom not to arrest? This man is now&#10;free from all sinful reaction. How is that you are claiming to be servant of&#10;Yamarāja, Dharmarāja, and do not know?" Therefore they were smiling.
&#10;&#10;
So their challenge was that "You are claiming to be&#10;servants of Yamarāja, but we are doubting whether you are bona fide servants of&#10;Yamarāja. Otherwise why you are committing this mistake?" So this&#10;indicates the servant should be as good as the master. That is servant. Because&#10;sometimes servants may be challenged. So that is the qualification of Kṛṣṇa's&#10;servant. Kṛṣṇa's servant must be always equipped, because they have to meet so&#10;many opposing elements, Kṛṣṇa's the. . . Paritrāṇāya sādhūnāṁ vināśāya&#10;ca duṣkṛtām ([[Vanisource:BG 4.8 (1972)|BG 4.8]]). There are so many. . . Practically the whole&#10;material world is full of duṣkṛtām. They want to create God. They&#10;don't want to become servant of God. That is their challenge. Therefore, anyone&#10;who is claiming to become servant of God, Kṛṣṇa, he must be well equipped to&#10;meet the challenging spirit of others. Prahasya idaṁ megha-nirhrādayā&#10;girā. Very gravely enquired from them. What is that enquiry? They&#10;said, śrī-viṣṇudūtā ūcuḥ. The Viṣṇudūta replied. Their submission&#10;was, "Sir, you are so nice gentlemen. You appear to be coming from the&#10;very elevated planets, and why you are interfering?"
&#10;&#10;
So they, with very grave voice and smiling, challenging&#10;them. What is that?
&#10;&#10;
yūyaṁ vai dharma-rājasya
&#10;&#10;
yadi nirdeśa-kāriṇaḥ
&#10;&#10;
brūta dharmasya nas tattvaṁ
&#10;&#10;
yac cādharmasya lakṣaṇam
&#10;&#10;
([[Vanisource:SB 6.1.38|SB 6.1.38]])
&#10;&#10;
"So if you are actually servant of Dharmarāja, then you&#10;must know what is dharma and what is adharma."&#10;Yūyaṁ vai dharma-rājasya yadi nirdeśa-kāriṇaḥ. "That will be your bona&#10;fide representation. You cannot do any mistake if you are servant of&#10;Dharmarāja." Dharmarāja means. . . Here there are so many living entities,&#10;of course, in the human society. I have explained many times, dharma,&#10;religious system, is in the human society, not in the animal society. The&#10;animals does not. . . They have no knowledge; neither they have capacity to&#10;distinguish what is dharma, what is adharma. Their&#10;business is simply eating, sleeping, mating and defending. That's all. It is&#10;the human society, another extra, not only simply eating, sleeping, mating.&#10;That is required, because we have got this body. But we have got extra&#10;intelligence. Why this extra intelligence? That is for understanding dharma,&#10;religion.
&#10;&#10;
But unfortunately, the modern rascal society, they utilizing&#10;that extra intelligence than the cats and dog for the same purpose:&#10;eating, sleeping, mating and defending. That is the defect of the modern&#10;civilization. In spite of advancement of education, scientific knowledge,&#10;technical knowledge, this knowledge, that knowledge, they remain the same cats&#10;and dogs. This is the defect. Therefore people are dissatisfied, disappointed.&#10;God has given him extra intelligence for understanding God, but they&#10;are being misled: "There is no God. You utilize it for your sense&#10;gratification." This is education. Extra. . . Therefore they are thinking,&#10;"The dog is eating on the street. We are eating in a very good hotel, nice&#10;table, nice dishes. This is advancement of life." But they do not think&#10;that after all, the dog is eating, you are also eating. You may be a better&#10;dog, that's all. So what is your extra business? So a dog is eating only flesh,&#10;or meat, because God has ordained. But you are ordained to eat fruits, flowers,&#10;nice grain, milk preparation, but you, because you are dog, you are eating&#10;meat. The extra intelligence that. . . Because you have got extra&#10;intelligence, you should utilize the food for you. Tena tyaktena&#10;bhuñjīthā mā gṛdhaḥ kasya svid dhanam ([[Vanisource:ISO 1 (1974)|ISO 1]]).&#10;The Upaniṣad, Vedas, says, "What you are ordained&#10;to take or accept. . . Everything belongs to God, but He has given allotment:&#10;'You use like this. You use like this.' " So if you imitate dog instead of&#10;human being. . . You are advanced human being. Why should you eat like dog or&#10;the uncivilized man? The uncivilized man in the jungle, he does not know how to&#10;produce grain, how to prepare many nice preparation. He does not know. But you&#10;are civilized man. Why you should eat like dogs and tigers? This is misuse of&#10;intelligence.
&#10;&#10;
So therefore, as they are challenging, that first of all,&#10;"You are claiming to be servant of Dharmarāja, so let us know what do you&#10;know about dharma." So similarly, we should also challenge,&#10;"If you are human being, you must know how to live like human being.&#10;Otherwise you are animal. If you eat like animal, sleep like animal and have&#10;sex like animal and defend like animal, then you are animal." They say&#10;that "It is very good to become dog because there is no restriction of sex&#10;life. We can have it on the street." They think like that. "This is&#10;advancement." The animals wander naked, so man is also trying to become&#10;naked, nudyism. This is life. So their extra intelligence is being&#10;used like that—very, very abominable condition of the human society. You are&#10;the only hope to save them. Otherwise it is doomed.
