Vaniquotes - the complete essence of Vedic knowledge

They (these boys and girls) are coming from your community - they are not imported from India or I have bribed them to do like that (engaged in God's service twenty-four hours). No. They've got an attachment

Lectures

Bhagavad-gita As It Is Lectures

They are coming from your community—they are not imported from India, like that boy asked, or I have bribed them to do like that. No. They've got an attachment. Exactly at three o'clock they'll rise, they'll take bath, they'll offer ārati at four o'clock, and they're doing. All regulative principles they will do. And that is the sign that they are free from the reaction of all sinful activities. This is a sign. This is the proof.

To become Kṛṣṇa conscious, it is not very easy thing. Kṛṣṇa says in another place:

yeṣāṁ tv anta-gataṁ pāpaṁ
janānāṁ puṇya-karmaṇām
te dvandva-moha-nirmuktā
bhajante māṁ dṛḍha-vratāḥ
(BG 7.28)

These boys and girls whom you see, they are engaged in the service of the Lord. They are not ordinary boys. Their reaction of sinful life is finished. Therefore they are so steadily engaged, twenty-four hours we see, from early in the morning, four o'clock, they are engaged in Deity worship. They are coming from your community—they are not imported from India, like that boy asked, or I have bribed them to do like that. No. They've got an attachment. Exactly at three o'clock they'll rise, they'll take bath, they'll offer ārati at four o'clock, and they're doing. All regulative principles they will do. And that is the sign that they are free from the reaction of all sinful activities. This is a sign. This is the proof.

Lord Kṛṣṇa says that, yeṣāṁ anta-gataṁ pāpam: one who is completely free from all sinful reaction of life, they, such persons, dvandva-moha-nirmuktā (BG 7.28), without any duality. Because if I say, outsider that, "You come early in the morning and you take your bath and engage yourself maṅgala-ārati and do this," he will not be able. Unless one has developed a sense of service to Kṛṣṇa, one cannot do it. It is not so easy.
