| <p>Prabhupāda: Yes. They are satyaṁ śamaḥ damaḥ. He must be truthful, he must control the senses, control the mind... śamo damaḥ,... He must be tolerant. He should not be agitated in trifle matters. Satyaṁ śamo damaḥ śaucam. He must be always clean. Three times he must take bath at least. All the clothing, all, everything is clean. This is brahminical training. And then he must know all what is what, knowledge, and practical application, and firm faith in Kṛṣṇa. This is brāhmaṇa.</p>
| | |
| <p>Hṛdayānanda: So what kind of practical work could we engage them in?</p>
| | <mp3player>https://vanipedia.s3.amazonaws.com/clip/740314MW-VRNDAVAN_clip04.mp3</mp3player> |
| <p>Prabhupāda: They'll be teaching. They'll be all teachers.</p>

| <p>Hṛdayānanda: Oh, they'll be teachers.</p>
| | Hṛdayānanda: So ''brāhmaṇa'' can teach how to fight? |
| <p>Prabhupāda: Yes. Just like Droṇācārya. He was brāhmaṇa, but he was teaching military art to the Pāṇḍavas. General teacher class will be the brāhmaṇas. It doesn't matter what he's teaching. But teaching, perfectly teaching, how to become a military man. Arjuna's fighting was due to Droṇācārya. He learned it from Droṇācārya. He was a brāhmaṇa. But because he took the position of a teacher, he thought very perfectly. A brāhmaṇa should be expert in every kind of knowledge. If requires, he'll become teacher. This is brāhmaṇa.</p>
| | |
| <p>Hṛdayānanda: So brāhmaṇa can teach how to fight?</p>
| | Prabhupāda: Yes. ''Brāhmaṇa'' means intelligent, brain. So in intelligent brain one can learn anything and teach anything. |
| <p>Prabhupāda: Yes. Brāhmaṇa means intelligent, brain. So in intelligent brain one can learn anything and teach anything.</p>
| | |
| <p>Satsvarūpa: This is all very new.</p>
| | Satsvarūpa: This is all very new. |
| <p>Prabhupāda: Eh?</p>
| | |
| <p>Satsvarūpa: This is very new. It seems there'll be many difficulties. So we should try to start this school.</p>
| | Prabhupāda: Eh? |
| <p>Prabhupāda: What is the difficulty? If I teach you how to cook, is it very difficult?</p>
| | |
| <p>Satsvarūpa: Yes, we have to... No, we have to learn, though.</p>
| | Satsvarūpa: This is very new. It seems there'll be many difficulties. So we should try to start this school. |
| <p>Prabhupāda: Then similarly, like that. Like that. I am doing that. I am teaching how to mop the floor.</p>
| | |
| <p>Satsvarūpa: Then it becomes easy.</p>
| | Prabhupāda: What is the difficulty? If I teach you how to cook, is it very difficult? |
| <p>Prabhupāda: But I must know everything because I am a teacher.</p>
| | |
| <p>Hṛdayānanda: So, for example, if I become a teacher at varṇāśrama, say, the first teacher at the varṇāśrama college, then I have to also become expert at how to fight, how to...</p>
| | Satsvarūpa: Yes, we have to . . . no, we have to learn it all. |
| <p>Prabhupāda: Not all of you, but some of you must be, must learn the art of fighting also. But in a practical you are not going to fight. If required, you can fight. I say that we are above all these varṇāśrama, but we must train others or ourself also for material activities, everything, under these divisions.</p>
| | |
| <p>Viṣṇujana: For example, in New Vrindaban we have brāhmaṇas that are very expert at tilling the soil and taking care of cows.</p>
| | Prabhupāda: Then similarly, like that. Like that. I am doing that. I am teaching how to with mop the floor. |
| <p>Prabhupāda: Yes.</p>
| | |
| <p>Viṣṇujana: And they could travel around and teach others how to do that as well.</p>
| | Satsvarūpa: Then it becomes easy. |
| <p>Prabhupāda: Yes. That's right. He is brāhmaṇa, but he's teaching how to take care of the cows and ploughing.</p>
| | |
| <p>Hṛdayānanda: It's not that one teacher has to teach everything.</p>
| | Prabhupāda: But I must know everything, because I am a teacher. |
| <p>Prabhupāda: No, no.</p>
| | |
| <p>Hṛdayānanda: Oh, I see. So a brāhmaṇa teacher should become expert in a particular subject and then teach that.</p>
| | Hṛdayānanda: So, for example, if I become a teacher at ''varṇāśrama'' . . . say, the first teacher at the ''varṇāśrama'' college, then I have to also become expert at how to fight, how to . . . |
| <p>Prabhupāda: Yes.</p>
| | |
| <p>Hṛdayānanda: Oh. It's very exciting, Prabhupāda, because all the, at the present time in the...</p>
| | Prabhupāda: Not all of you, but some of you must be, must learn the art of fighting also. But in a practical you are not going to fight. If required, you can fight. I say that we are above all these ''varṇāśrama'', but we must train others or ourself also for material activities, everything, under these divisions. |
| <p>Prabhupāda: No, the thing is that actually, at the present moment, they are śūdras or less than śūdras. They are not human beings. The whole population of the world. It doesn't matter whether it is western or eastern. That is the position. So unless they are trained up, so the society's already in chaos, and it will go on still more in chaos, chaos. It will be hell. How people will live? And these rascals are being elected as government men, and they're only making budget how to tax. So one side, there is no rain; one side, there is no rice, especially in India; and one side, heavy tax. So they'll be all confused. They have already become confused. So in the confusion state it will be very difficult to make them Kṛṣṇa conscious. Therefore preliminary help should be given.</p>
