Prabhupāda: Just see. For picking up the papers they have to spend so much.

(break) (on walk)

Prabhupāda: . . .is we want to distribute books vigorously because general public, they have not yet understood what is the importance of this movement; neither they have any knowledge. The general public, maybe with some exception in India, they are simply like cats and dogs. They have no knowledge that what is the purpose of this life . . . (indistinct) . . . and . . . Pravṛttiṁ ca nivṛttiṁ ca na vidur āsurāḥ janā. That is stated. Pravṛtti means what we should accept, what kind of life we should accept and what kind of life we shall reject. This is their first ignorance. Pravṛttiṁ ca nivṛttiṁ ca na viduḥ āsurāḥ janā ([[Vanisource:BG 16.7 (1972)|BG 16.7]]). And what is the next line? Jagad āhur anīśvaram ([[Vanisource:BG 16.8 (1972)|BG 16.8]]).

Jayādvaita: Na śaucaṁ nāpi cācāro . . .

Prabhupāda: Nāpi cācāro. Na śaucaṁ nāpi cācāro . . .

Jayādvaita: Na satyaṁ teṣ . . .

Prabhupāda: Na satyaṁ teṣu vidyate. This is the whole population. They do not know . . . There are big, big nation, big, big philosopher, big, big scientists, and all very big, but what kind of life they should live they do not know. What is the accurate destination of our life, that they do not know. And all humbug, big, big scientist, philosopher, theologist and so on, so on, politician, sociologist, welfare. But real thing, they are rascal. They do not know which way we have to go. So what is the use of these big, big words? They do not know which way to go. Suppose we are walking. If we go to the this side without knowing that "This is water; we should not go," then what is the use? That is their defect. Pravṛttiṁ ca nivṛttiṁ ca na vidur āsurāḥ janā. Na śaucaṁ nāpi cācāro ([[Vanisource:BG 16.7 (1972)|BG 16.7]]). (chuckles) Śaucam, cleanliness, they do not know; neither behavior. Nāpi cācāro. Jagad āhur anīśvaram: "Oh, there is no God. It has come out, out of the sand." This is the whole population. Jagad ahur anīśvaram ([[Vanisource:BG 16.8 (1972)|BG 16.8]]). Which way we shall go? (break)

Therefore we require vigorous propaganda to make these fools to understand what is the real aim of life. That should be our propaganda. Idam adya mayā labdham imaṁ prāpsye punar dhanam ([[Vanisource:BG 16.13-15 (1972)|BG 16.13]]). They have simply calculated, "Now today the bank balance is now three millions dollars, and tomorrow it will be four million." Simply they say. Idaṁ prāpsye punar dhanam. And everyone is proud: "Who is greater than me? Who can understand more than me? I am very great man." Āḍhyo mām abhi . . . What is that? Āḍhyo mām, hmm? "I am the richest man. I am the most aristocratic. I have killed so many enemies. Now I shall kill that enemy."

Everything is described in the Bhagavad-gītā. This is their position. The rascal does not know that he is going to be a dog next life, and if he is going to, he says, "Oh, what is the wrong? I can become dog." This is the position. (break) . . .āhur anīśvaram. (break) . . .trying to go to the planet, this planet, that planet. Rascal, say . . . They did not recognize, "Who has made this planet where I am going?" They are taking credit by going there, but he is not giving any credit to the person or the agent who has made it. Just see. What do you think? That "I am going there, but who has made it? Who is that person?" "No, it has come out . . . There was a chunk, and it became plant (planet?) and then so on." This is their knowledge. And people are accepting, "Oh, great scientist. There was a chunk." Just see. Why don't you get yourself a chunk and it burst into big, big planet? (laughter) Such rascals are governing the whole human society.
