In a Bengali proverb there is . . . ḍheṅki svarge geleo dhān bange (Bengali: Dhenki (rice huller) even if it goes to heaven, it still does threshing (it's duty) there). Means a ḍheṅki, that machine, that wooden machine, which . . . husking machine? So if you send it to the heaven, then what he'll do? The same business. It does not mean the ḍheṅki, while it is promoted in the heaven, he can become soul or anything else. No. Similarly, we living entities, we have desire to enjoy this material world, but our position is servant. We have not changed our position. We revolted to serve Kṛṣṇa. That is all right. But what is your position here in the material world? Now, that is also servant.

Just like I told Professor Kotovsky that, "Your Communism, what is the difference between your Communism and our Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement? You have selected Lelin as your leader, or master, and we have selected Kṛṣṇa as our leader, master. So on the principle, where is difference?" The professor could not answer.

So the professor could not answer, but he was impressed that actually what is this meaning of Communism. You simply change of . . . change of master. That's all. And this is going on. All political leaders, they are going from one political leader to another, and he's exploiting. That's all. He, he is giving some manifesto that "If you give me vote, then I shall make you overnight a king." All false propaganda. And these rascal gives him vote and he again remains the same servant. That's all.

There is a Bengali song: tabe kali tomāra bharosā balo ke kare, āpanāra karma phala yadi phalibe āmāra. So if I remain the same servant, then why shall I vote to you? You cannot make me master. But my desire is that I shall become master. That is called illusion. Because I'm not master. I cannot become master. I have to remain servant. I am flattering some men: "Please make me master. Please make me master." That is my position—this political party, that political party.

Therefore the sane man, one who has got good brain, su-medha . . . su-medha and alpa-medha. Medha means brain substance. Su-medhasaḥ. Su-medhasaḥ. There is a word, the su-medhasaḥ. They . . . yes. Saṅkīrtana-prāyair yajanti hi su-medhasaḥ ([[Vanisource:SB 11.5.32|SB 11.5.32]]). Su-medhasaḥ.

And there is another word: alpa-medhasaḥ. Antavat tu phalaṁ teṣāṁ tad bhavaty alpa-medhasām ([[Vanisource:BG 7.23 (1972)|BG 7.23]]). Su-medhasaḥ means good brain, and alpa-medha means rascal, less brain substance. Sometimes we say, chastise that, "Your brain, your this skull, is filled up with cow dung. There is no brain substance."

So those whose brains are filled up with cow dung, they want to exploit this material world. It is impossible. It is not possible. Under certain pleas only that, "This political party will give you better chance for exploiting." But you cannot do that. It is not possible. This is called māyā.

In illusion, I'm thinking, "If I make certain more progress . . ." We see, in America, they're increasing the number of motorcars, and the problem is road. One flyway above another flyway, above another flyway. The flyway construction is going on perpetually. Is it not? And this is called advancement.

The rascal do not know that, "I am simply laboring, laboring, laboring. Where is the stoppage of laboring? " No. That you cannot stop. Your progress means you simply work hard. And because you are illusioned, that hard-working you are thinking progress, happiness. That's all. This is called māyā. He is working just like an ass.

The ass, ass, ass is working whole day and night for the washerman for a morsel of grass. But ass, why it is called ass? He can, the ass can have grasses anywhere, but he, for that grass, he's working very hard for the washerman. Therefore he's ass. He has no sense that "Why I shall work for this washerman so hard? I can get this morsel of grass anywhere." But he'll work.

So ass politician, ass family man, ass community leader. So . . . all asses, mūḍhāḥ. Na māṁ prapadyante mūḍhāḥ. All asses. They'll not surrender to Kṛṣṇa to get relief. They'll work like ass. Therefore Kṛṣṇa says, na māṁ prapadyante mūḍhāḥ duṣkṛtino narādhamāḥ ([[Vanisource:BG 7.15 (1972)|BG 7.15]]).

They have no brain, alpa-medhasaḥ. No brain substance. Filled up with cow dung. And those who have got real brain, then, for them it is recommended: saṅkīrtana-prāyaiḥ, yajñaiḥ saṅkīrtana-prāyair yajanti hi su-medhasaḥ.

Oh, one who has got brain, he catches Caitanya Mahāprabhu, kṛṣṇa-varṇam, always chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra. Sāṅgopāṅgāstra-pārṣadam. And simply worship by chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa. That is brain substance. Or cow dung.
