One is to understand our relationship with Kṛṣṇa (sambandha), another is to act according to that relationship (abhidheya), and the third is to reach the ultimate goal (prayojana). The word prayojana means &amp;quot;necessities,&amp;quot; and the ultimate necessity is explained by Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu. premā pum-artho mahān: the greatest necessity for a human being is the achievement of love for the Supreme Personality of Godhead.

&amp;lt;div class=&amp;quot;heading&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Prayojana means it is necessary. Puruṣārtha-śiromaṇi prema mahā-dhana. Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu&amp;#039;s preaching was based on this principle: premā pumartho mahān. What is the objective of human life?

Of course, it is not expected that each and every man will become like that. At least, ten percent of the population become Kṛṣṇa consciousness—there is guarantee, peace in the world. Because ekaś candra... We do not require many moons in the sky. Only one moon is sufficient to drive away the darkness. Varam eka guṇī putra na ca mūrkha-śatair api. Cāṇakya Paṇḍita says, &amp;quot;It is better to have a qualified son than to have hundreds of fools.&amp;quot; So the modern civilization is going on in that way, godless civilization. If some percentage of the civilized human beings become Kṛṣṇa conscious, that will bring forth peace. Otherwise it is not possible. It is therefore necessity. Lord Caitanya says, abhidheya &amp;#039;bhakti&amp;#039;, &amp;#039;prema&amp;#039;-prayojana. Prayojana means it is necessary. Puruṣārtha-śiromaṇi prema mahā-dhana. Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu&amp;#039;s preaching was based on this principle: premā pumartho mahān. What is the objective of human life? He said that &amp;quot;Objective of human life is to attain love of God.&amp;quot; That&amp;#039;s all. That makes him perfect, nothing more. He..., His mission has been described by one of the ācāryas, Viśvanātha Cakravartī. He has studied. He said that the mission of Lord Caitanya is ārādhyo bhagavān vrajeśa-tanaya: &amp;quot;Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, is ārādhya.&amp;quot; Ārādhya means He is worshipable. He&amp;#039;s the only worshipable personality. Ārādhyo bhagavān vrajeśa-tanaya tad-dhāmaṁ vṛndāvanam: &amp;quot;And as Lord Kṛṣṇa is worshipable, similarly His place of pastimes, Vṛndāvana-dhāma, is also worshipable.&amp;quot; Ārādhyo bhagavān vrajeśa-tanaya tad-dhāmaṁ vṛndāvanam. And what is the best kind of worship for Kṛṣṇa? Now, ramyā kācid upāsanā vraja-vadhū-vargeṇa yā-kalpitā: &amp;quot;The highest kind of worship is as demonstrated by the damsels of Vṛndāvana, the girlfriends of Kṛṣṇa.&amp;quot; Yes. They had no adulteration. Simply they were always thinking of Kṛṣṇa.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
