When I go to New York, I see the great institution. There are hundreds and thousands of flags. Instead of being united, the flags are increasing, because this universal brotherhood, this equality, fraternity, cannot be established on this material platform. That is not possible. You have to come to the point, to the platform of Kṛṣṇa consciousness, or brahma bhūta stage, then it is possible.

<div class="quote_verse">
:brahma bhūtaḥ prasannātmā
:na śocati na kāṅkṣati
:samaḥ sarveṣu bhūteṣu
:mad-bhaktiṁ labhate parām 
:([[Vanisource:BG 18.54 (1972)|BG 18.54]])

So everything is scientifically described in the Vedic literature. You haven't got to make any research. It is already there. You have to simply accept it and take it. Then your life will be sublime, your life will be successful. Caitanya Mahāprabhu's mission is that, to make everyone's life successful. Sarve sukhino bhavantu: everyone become happy. That is the mission of everyone. "Everyone" means those who are devotees.

How people will be happy? That is their mission. It is not that we start a mission just to make some money and to fill up our belly, hungry belly. No. It is a mission to see that everyone is happy in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. This is the mission. Our ācāryas, just like Rūpa Goswāmī, about him Śrinivāsācarya writes:

<div class="quote_verse">
:nana-śāstra-vicaraṇaika-nipunau sad-dharma-pravarthakau
:lokanam hita-karinau tri-bhuvane manyau saranyakarau
:radha-kṛṣṇa . . . bhajananandena-mattalikau
:vande rupa-sanātana raghu-yugau śrī-jīva-gopālakau 
:(Ṣaḍ-gosvāmy-aṣṭaka)
</div>

They engaged themselves. They were ministers. Rūpa Goswāmī and Sanātana Goswāmī, they were two great ministers in the government of Pathan kingdom in Bengal. And they resigned the post just for the benefit of the mass of people. They became mendicant, tyaktvā tūrṇam aśeṣa-maṇḍala-pati-śreṇīṁ.

So this is the mission of all who is born in India. That is the statement by Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu:

<div class="quote_verse">
:bhārata bhumite haila manuṣya-janma yāra
:janma sārthaka kari kara para-upakāra 
:([[Vanisource:CC Adi 9.41|CC Adi 9.41]])
</div>

So this Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is for para-upakāra, for doing good to others—this best welfare activities in the world. And it is India's duty, it is India's prerogative to take this knowledge and broadcast all over the world for para-upakāra. And actually it is happening. All these European and American boys and girls, they are trying to understand this Kṛṣṇa conscious movement very seriously.

So it is very scientific, authorized and practical also. So we hope that all of you who are present here will try to cooperate with this movement, and let us meet at least so long as I am here. That will be very much beneficial.
