<div class="heading">Either brāhmaṇa, either kṣatriya, either vaiśya or śūdra. Nobody should become idle and gossiping, and sleeping, then utilize... This should be principle.

<span class="link">[[Vanisource:Room Conversation -- July 31, 1975, New Orleans|Room Conversation -- July 31, 1975, New Orleans]]: </span><div class="text"><p style="display: inline;">Satsvarūpa: Is it all right to use modern machines on our farms?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: As far as possible don't use machine. Let people be engaged.</p>
<p>Satsvarūpa: Animals?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Animal. Yes.</p>
<p>Satsvarūpa: Not gas-driven engine.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Let people be engaged. Machine means one man or two man working... That will mean unemployment. Machine means unemployment. The principle should be that everyone is employed. Either brāhmaṇa, either kṣatriya, either vaiśya or śūdra. Nobody should become idle and gossiping, and sleeping, then utilize... This should be principle. Everyone should be engaged in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, then life is successful. And self-sufficient. If we have got spoiling living program, these are necessities. Growing, cultivating, producing, there will be not possibility of, and we don't want more than the necessity. If by God's grace we get more then you can make sale, we are not going to work for selling purpose. Then money will be there. How to get money, how to get money? And as soon as you get money, more than necessity, then sense gratification, then this, that, this, that, then you become implicated. Ato gṛha kṣetra sutāpta... ahaṁ mameti ([[Vanisource:SB 5.5.8|SB 5.5.8]]). As soon as you become implicated with material want, gṛha, kṣetra, vittair, ato gṛha kṣetra sutāpta, children, wife, friendship, then the false ego, "I am this body and this is my property," will increase. For that is material world. People do not know the end of life, or the aim of life. They are misguided, hence the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement to give them an ideal way of life. So this is very nice place. We have got small lakes also. Natural we have?</p>
<p>Nityānanda: No, you can make them.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: How? How low is the water?</p>
<p>Nityānanda: Ten feet.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Ten feet, oh, just like Bengal. As soon as you dig ten feet there is water.</p>
<p>Nityānanda: No, it's ah, when you have a gulley, you build a dam at one end and it fills up with water from the rain, and it stays full.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Oh, the rain is sufficient here? How many months it rain?</p>
<p>Nityānanda: There is no definite rainy season, it rains all year round.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Oh, that's very good. Winter?</p>
<p>Nityānanda: No snow, it's always rain. We can grow vegetables in the summer, and different vegetables in the winter. So the cows they can stay outside all year. They don't have to stay in the barn, it's warm enough.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: Very ideal spot. Develop it and show how we can live peacefully.</p>
<p>Nityānanda: This combination of a temple in the city where they can preach and bring people out to their farm is very good.</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: ...healthy place.</p>
<p>Nityānanda: So mostly gṛhasthas should stay on the farms, or brahmacārīs also?</p>
<p>Prabhupāda: No, brahmacārīs and sannyāsīs especially they should preach. And gṛhasthas may produce necessities. They also preach, preaching everyone. Especially for brahmacārī and sannyāsī. (end)</p>
