Just like they are thinking that everything belongs to the state. These Communists, these Moscow, Moscowites, or the Russian, or the Chinese, they are thinking state-wise. But we are thinking not state-wise; we are thinking God-wise. Everything belongs to God. The same philosophy, you extend. Simply you require little intelligence, little intelligence.

Kuntī says that this intoxication position, madaḥ, edhamāna-madaḥ ([[Vanisource:SB 1.8.26|SB 1.8.26]]), increasing, pumān, such person, naivārhati, they cannot feelingly address, "Jaya Rādhā-Mādhava." They cannot feelingly. That is not possible. Their feeling, spiritual feeling, is lost. They cannot feelingly address, because they do not know. "Oh, this God is for poor man. They cannot have sufficient food. Let them go to the church and ask, 'O God, give us our daily bread.' We have got enough bread. Why shall I go to church?" This is their opinion. Therefore nowadays, in the days of economic development, nobody's interested in going to the church or temple, "What this nonsense? Why shall I go to the church for asking bread? We shall develop economic condition, and there will be sufficient supply of bread."

Just like Communist country, they do so. The Communist country, they make propaganda in the villages. They ask the people to go to the church and ask for bread. They, innocent people, they ask as usual, "O God, give us our daily bread." Then when they come out of the church, these Communist people ask, "Have you got bread?" They say: "No, sir." "All right, ask us." And then they ask: "O Communist friend, give me bread." And the Communist friend has taken a truckload of bread: "Take. As much as you like, take. So who is better? We are better or your God is better?" They say: "No, sir, you are better." Because they have no intelligence. They do not inquire that, "You rascal, wherefrom you have brought this bread?" (laughter) "Have you manufactured in your factory? Can you manufacture grains, the ingredients of bread, in your factory?" Because they have no intelligence.

Śūdra. They are called śūdra. Śūdra means those who have no intelligence. They take it as it is. But one who is brāhmaṇa, one who is advanced in intelligence, he'll inquire immediately, "You rascal, wherefrom you brought this bread?" That is the question of the brāhmaṇa. You cannot manufacture bread. You have simply transformed God's grain.The grain, the wheat, is given by God, and you have simply transformed. But transforming something from something, that does not become your property.

Just like I give some carpenter some wood, some implement, and salary, and he makes a very nice, beautiful closet. To whom this closet will begi . . . belong? To the carpenter, or to the man who has supplied the ingredients? To whom it will begin? The carpenter cannot say that "Because I have transformed this wood into such nice closet, it is mine." No. It is not your. Similarly, who is supplying the ingredient, rascal? That is Kṛṣṇa. Kṛṣṇa says, bhūmir āpo 'nalo vāyuḥ khaṁ mano buddhir eva . . . prakṛtir me aṣṭadhā ([[Vanisource:BG 7.4 (1972)|BG 7.4]]). "This is My property. You have not created this sea, the land, the sky, the fire, the air. It is not your creation." You can transform these material things, tejo-vāri-mṛdāṁ vinimayaḥ, by mixing and transforming. You take earth from the land, you take water from the sea and mix it and put it in the fire—it becomes a brick. And then you pile up all this brick and make a skyscraper building. But wherefrom you got this ingredient, rascal, that you are claiming this skyscraper yours? This is intelligent question. You have stolen the property of God, and you are claiming that it is your property. This is knowledge. This is knowledge.

So those who are intoxicated, they cannot understand. They think "It is my property. I have stolen. I have stolen this land of America from the Red Indians. Now it is my property." But he does not know that he's a thief. He's a thief. Stena eva sa ucyate ([[Vanisource:BG 3.12 (1972)|BG 3.12]]), in the Bhagavad-gītā. One who takes the property of God and claims his own, he's a thief. Stena eva sa ucyate. Therefore we have got communistic idea, the devotee, Kṛṣṇa conscious person. We have got Kṛṣṇa conscious communistic program. What is that? That everything belongs to God. Just like they are thinking that everything belongs to the state. These Communists, these Moscow, Moscowites, or the Russian, or the Chinese, they are thinking state-wise. But we are thinking not state-wise; we are thinking God-wise. Everything belongs to God. The same philosophy, you extend. Simply you require little intelligence, little intelligence. Why do you think that this state belongs to a few number of people? If you think that there are population, American population, this land of America belongs to this population . . . why do you think like that? You think this is property of God.

So every living entity is a child of God. God is the Supreme Father. Kṛṣṇa says, ahaṁ bīja-pradaḥ pitā: "I am the seed-giving father of all living entities." Sarva-yoniṣu kaunteya ([[Vanisource:BG 14.4 (1972)|BG 14.4]]): "In whichever form they may live, they're all, living entities, they're My sons." Actually that is the fact. We all living entities, we are sons of God. But we have forgotten. Therefore we are fighting. Just like in a nice family, if anyone knows, "Father is supplying us food. So we brothers, why should we fight?" Similarly if we become God conscious, if we become Kṛṣṇa conscious, this fighting will be over. "I am American," "I am Indian," "I am Russian," "I am Chinese," these all nonsense things will be over.

So these things are to be understood. That is Kṛṣṇa consciousness. And if we remain fool . . . no. Everything is there. In the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, in Bhagavad-gītā, everything is there about Kṛṣṇa. Anyone can understand if he's little intelligent. And as soon as you understand Kṛṣṇa, then you are liberated person.

So these things are to be understood. Kṛṣṇa is para. Paras tasmāt tu bhāvaḥ anyaḥ ([[Vanisource:BG 8.20 (1972)|BG 8.20]]). In the Bhagavad-gītā we get this information. There is another nature exactly like this. But these so-called scientists, they are so ignorant, they cannot estimate that there is another nature, there are spiritual planets . . . this . . . they do not know even how many planets are there, how they are situated, how they are inhabited. They think simply this planet is full of living entities; in other planets, there is no living entity. But that is not the fact. Every planet. Every planet is full with living entities, even in the sun planet, moon planet. So this is a subject matter we have discussed many times. So Kuntī has already pointed out that Kṛṣṇa is īśvara, and He's beyond the jurisdiction of this material world. That Kṛṣṇa, when He comes here . . . Yadā yadā hi dharmasya glānir bhavati ([[Vanisource:BG 4.7 (1972)|BG 4.7]]). He comes. Tadātmānaṁ sṛjāmy aham. He comes. Then how He comes? He comes as the son of Vasudeva. Kṛṣṇāya vāsudevāya. Vāsudeva, vāsudevāya. His name . . . because He comes as the son of Vasudeva, therefore He is called Vāsudeva. Vāsudevaḥ sarvam iti sa mahātmā sudurlabhaḥ ([[Vanisource:BG 7.19 (1972)|BG 7.19]]). If one knows that this Vāsudeva is everything, then he is the most exalted mahātmā.

So these things are to be understood. That is Kṛṣṇa consciousness. And if we remain fool . . . no. Everything is there. In the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, in Bhagavad-gītā, everything is there about Kṛṣṇa. Anyone can understand if he's little intelligent. And as soon as you understand Kṛṣṇa, then you are liberated person.

So why should you not understand Kṛṣṇa? Everything is given there. Why you should . . .? At least, the intelligent class, the Americans and Europeans, they are very intelligent materially. They have proved their intelligence. Why not spiritually? If they are materially intelligent, brain is there, you can utilize it either for material purpose or . . . now, so far, you have done for material purposes. You have done enough, so many machineries and so many things. But there is no happiness. You take to . . . apply your brain and intelligence to understand Kṛṣṇa. Then your life is successful.
