No Happiness Inside The Prison Walls - Prabhupada 0921

From Vaniquotes


690712 - Lecture SB - Los Angeles

If you think . . . if a prisoner thinks that, "I am in this cell. Let me request the superintendent of the jail to change my cell and I'll be happy," that is a mistaken idea. One cannot be happy so long he is under the prison walls. One should become free. That should be the aim of our life. So we are trying to be happy by changing the cell, by this "ism" to that "ism," by capitalism to communism, from communism to this "ism," to that "ism." That will not make us happy. You'll have to completely change from this "ism," this materialism, that's all. Then you'll be happy.

That is our program, Kṛṣṇa consciousness.
