Prabhupāda: Pious and vicious, these two activities are concern to the human, pāpaṁ and puṇya. It is not to the animals. Animals, they are not subjected to the rules and regulations. Just like state law—state laws are meant for human beings, not for the cats and dogs. Just like you drive your car, ah . . . you know what is the rule here? Keep to the right or keep to the left? 

Devotees: Left. Keep to the left.

Prabhupāda: These pious and vicious, these two activities are concern to the human, pāpaṁ and puṇya. It is not to the animals. Animals, they are not subjected to the rules and regulations. Just like state law—state laws are meant for human beings, not for the cats and dogs. Just like you drive your car, ah . . . you know what is the rule here? Keep to the right or keep to the left?

Devotees: Left. Keep to the left.

Prabhupāda: Left. Yes. In America it is keep to the right. So if you act against the law of the state, if you drive your car either right or left—because in different countries it changes—so you become criminal. But a dog or a cat or a cow, if he crosses the road right or left, it is not subject to the law. Therefore all laws, all scriptures, all regulation—everything—is meant for the human being, not for the cats and dogs. Therefore any society which is not subjected to the rules and regulation, this is animal society.

We are trying to be free from the rules and regulation, but that is meant for the animals, not for the human being. We have forgotten. We want freedom. We say that "We don't want to be regulated." That is not possible by nature. By nature . . . suppose you can eat up to certain extent. Say eight ounce you can eat. As soon as you eat ten ounce, immediately you become diseased. Other man, he can eat sixteen ounce, he does not fall ill.
