The government wants that there should be no this caste system, but how can you say there is no caste system? There are guṇas. How you can avoid caste system? There must be a class of men very intelligent. They are called Brahmins by their guṇas. And there must be a class of men kṣatriyas by the particular type of guṇa. And there must be a class of men mercantile, or vaiśyas, by the particular type of guṇas acquired. And there must be a class of men śūdra.

So guṇa-saṅgo 'sti, so according to guṇa. Therefore the Yamadūta said, kāriṇāṁ guṇa-saṅgo 'sti (SB 6.1.44). Anyone who is engaged in activities . . . activities means, I have already explained, that karma. Karma means I work, I get some profit, and I utilize it for my sense gratification. They are karmīs. So work is not prohibited. You cannot stop working, but the purpose of working, according to the purpose of working, the guṇa is detected.

The government wants that there should be no this caste system, but how can you say there is no caste system? There are guṇas. How you can avoid caste system? There must be a class of men very intelligent. They are called Brahmins by their guṇas. And there must be a class of men kṣatriyas by the particular type of guṇa. And there must be a class of men mercantile, or vaiśyas, by the particular type of guṇas acquired. And there must be a class of men śūdra.

So guṇa-saṅgo 'sti, so according to guṇa. Therefore the Yamadūta said, kāriṇāṁ guṇa-saṅgo 'sti ([[Vanisource:SB 6.1.44|SB 6.1.44]]). Anyone who is engaged in activities . . . activities means, I have already explained, that karma. Karma means I work, I get some profit, and I utilize it for my sense gratification. They are karmīs. So work is not prohibited. You cannot stop working, but the purpose of working, according to the purpose of working, the guṇa is detected.

What is the purpose of this work?

Deha-vān, one who has accepted this body, he has to work. Without working he cannot live.
