Even if he has got great amount of wealth, good qualification, everything, he thinks that, "These things are Kṛṣṇa's. I am His servant. I have got the opportunity to serve Him with this qualification. If I am highly educated, if I have got good knowledge, if I am great philosopher, scientist—everything—if I do not engage all these qualifications to Kṛṣṇa's service, then I shall naturally become falsely proud.

Pride means if one is too much proud of his acquisition, either educational or material wealth, that means he is in the material platform. This very test. A devotee is never proud. He is humble, humble and meek. Just Lord Jesus Christ also said: "The humble and meek will attain the kingdom of God." Is it not?

(break) . . . even if he has got great amount of wealth, good qualification, everything, he thinks that, "These things are Kṛṣṇa's. I am His servant. I have got the opportunity to serve Him with this qualification. If I am highly educated, if I have got good knowledge, if I am great philosopher, scientist—everything—if I do not engage all these qualifications to Kṛṣṇa's service, then I shall naturally become falsely proud, and that is the cause of my falldown. I will never be able to approach God, because I am not humble and meek."

But as soon as one engages these qualifications for Kṛṣṇa's service . . . the scientist, he can present so many scientific thesis to prove that there is God. That is his perfection of scientific knowledge.
