An Experiment in Back Yard Sustainability

Prabhupada, October 8, 1977, Vrindavana: […] No luxuries. Live very simple life and you save time for chanting Hare Krishna.

Hamsaduta: Yes, Prabhupada.

Prabhupada: That is my desire. Don’t waste time for bodily comforts. You have got this body. You have to eat something. You have to cover yourself. So produce your own food and produce your own cloth. Don’t waste time for luxury, and chant Hare Krishna. This is success of life. In this way organize as far as possible, either in Ceylon or in Czechoslovakia, wherever… Save time. Chant Hare Krishna. Don’t be allured by the machine civilization.

Hamsaduta: Yes, Prabhupada.

Prabhupada: This is soul-killing civilization, this kind way of life, especially European countries. Anywhere you can inhabit it. It is not very difficult. A cottage; you can produce your own food anywhere. Am I right?

Hamsaduta: Yes, Prabhupada. We will do it. Full Conversation
