Srimad-Bhagavatam 1.8.35
Los Angeles, April 27, 1973
“In our Vedic literature we don’t find any mention anywhere about the factory. No. There is no mention. And how opulent they were. Even in Vrindavana. In Vrindavana, as soon as Kamsa invited Nanda Maharaja, immediately they took wagons of milk preparation to distribute.
And you will find in the literature they are all well dressed, well fed. They have got enough food, enough milk, enough cows. But they are village, village men. Vrndavana is a village. There is no scarcity. No moroseness, always jolly, dancing, chanting and eating. So we have created these problems.
Simply you have created. Now, you have created so many horseless carriages, now the problem is where to get petrol. In your country it has become a problem. Brahmananda was speaking to me yesterday. There are so many problems. Simply unnecessarily we have created so many artificial wants.
Kama-karmabhih. This is called kama.
So everyone, because of that unlimited desire, one after another… This desire, when this desire fulfilled, another desire, another desire, another desire. In this way you are simply creating problems. And when the desires are not fulfilled, then we become frustrated, confused. The frustration is there.”
pamho prabhus agtACBSP,
as the three gunas are feeding the bodily concept of life the daily hearing SRILA PRABHUPADA’s instructions is feeding our crying soul and giving all the fallen souls the right spiritual food.
Of course ugra-karma activities are to be avoided, are a serious disturbance in our society by making all the citizens more blind regarding this important issue of SRILA PRABHUPADA explaining about the difference of the spiritual self and dead matter.
By keeping chanting Hare Krsna maha mantra daily at brahma muhurta time with rapt attention we can get this realization of the difference between matter and spirit by feeling the material world like if it is empty, void and dead matter.
Therefore SRILA PRABHUPADA’s daily blessing makes one to keep going to serve until we find out our original spiritual identity.
It’s a long journey. The most important thing to make the path of purification shorter is to avoid getting involved in more ugra-karma activities, taking shelter at the lotus feet of SRI SRI GURU GAURANGA by staying connected with SRILA PRABHUPADA and HIS sincere prabhupadanugas around all over the world,
thank you for your sat-sanga and blessing agtys
