Sixth Canto, Second Chapter, of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, entitled “Ajāmila Delivered by the Viṣṇudūtas.” Text 5-6
Śukadeva Gosvāmī said: My dear King, the servants of Lord Viṣṇu are always very expert in logic and arguments. After hearing the statements of the Yamadūtas, they replied as follows.
The Viṣṇudūtas said: “People in general are not very advanced in knowledge by which to discriminate between religion and irreligion. The innocent, unenlightened citizen is like an ignorant animal sleeping in peace with its head on the lap of its master, faithfully believing in the master’s protection. If a leader is actually kindhearted and deserves to be the object of a living entity’s faith, how can he punish or kill a foolish person who has fully surrendered in good faith and friendship?”
The Sanskrit word viśvasta-ghāta refers to one who breaks faith or causes a breach of trust. The mass of people should always feel security because of the government’s protection. Therefore, how regrettable it is for the government itself to cause a breach of trust and put the citizens in difficulty for political reasons.
We actually saw during the partition days in India that although Hindus and Muslims were living together peacefully, manipulation by politicians suddenly aroused feelings of hatred between them, and thus the Hindus and Muslims killed one another over politics. This is a sign of Kali-yuga.
In this age, animals are kept nicely sheltered, completely confident that their masters will protect them, but unfortunately as soon as the animals are fat, they are immediately sent for slaughter. Such cruelty is condemned by Vaiṣṇavas like the Viṣṇudūtas. Indeed, the hellish conditions already described await the sinful men responsible for such suffering.
One who betrays the confidence of a living entity who takes shelter of him in good faith, whether that living entity be a human being or an animal, is extremely sinful. Because such betrayals now go unpunished by the government, all of human society is terribly contaminated.
The people of this age are therefore described as mandāḥ sumanda-matayo manda-bhāgyā hy upadrutāḥ [SB 1.1.10]. As a consequence of such sinfulness, men are condemned (mandāḥ), their intelligence is unclear (sumanda-matayaḥ), they are unfortunate (manda-bhāgyāḥ), and therefore they are always disturbed by many problems (upadrutāḥ). This is their situation in this life, and after death they are punished in hellish conditions.

First Canto, First Chapter, of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, entitled “Questions by the Sages.” Text 10
prāyeṇālpāyuṣaḥ sabhya
kalāv asmin yuge janāḥ
mandāḥ sumanda-matayo
manda-bhāgyā hy upadrutāḥ
“O learned one, in this iron age of Kali men have but short lives. They are quarrelsome, lazy, misguided, unlucky and, above all, always disturbed.”
PURPORT
The devotees of the Lord are always anxious for the spiritual improvement of the general public. When the sages of Naimiṣāraṇya analyzed the state of affairs of the people in this age of Kali, they foresaw that men would live short lives. In Kali-yuga, the duration of life is shortened not so much because of insufficient food but because of irregular habits. By keeping regular habits and eating simple food, any man can maintain his health. Overeating, over-sense gratification, overdependence on another’s mercy, and artificial standards of living sap the very vitality of human energy. Therefore the duration of life is shortened.
The people of this age are also very lazy, not only materially but in the matter of self-realization. The human life is especially meant for self-realization. That is to say, man should come to know what he is, what the world is, and what the supreme truth is. Human life is a means by which the living entity can end all the miseries of the hard struggle for life in material existence and by which he can return to Godhead, his eternal home. But, due to a bad system of education, men have no desire for self-realization. Even if they come to know about it, they unfortunately become victims of misguided teachers.
In this age, men are victims not only of different political creeds and parties, but also of many different types of sense-gratificatory diversions, such as cinemas, sports, gambling, clubs, mundane libraries, bad association, smoking, drinking, cheating, pilfering, bickerings, and so on.
Their minds are always disturbed and full of anxieties due to so many different engagements.
In this age, many unscrupulous men manufacture their own religious faiths which are not based on any revealed scriptures, and very often people who are addicted to sense gratification are attracted by such institutions. Consequently, in the name of religion so many sinful acts are being carried on that the people in general have neither peace of mind nor health of body.
The student (brahmacārī) communities are no longer being maintained, and householders do not observe the rules and regulations of the gṛhastha-āśrama. Consequently, the so-called vānaprasthas and sannyāsīs who come out of such gṛhastha-āśramas are easily deviated from the rigid path.
In the Kali-yuga the whole atmosphere is surcharged with faithlessness. Men are no longer interested in spiritual values. Material sense gratification is now the standard of civilization. For the maintenance of such material civilizations, man has formed complex nations and communities, and there is a constant strain of hot and cold wars between these different groups.
It has become very difficult, therefore, to raise the spiritual standard due to the present distorted values of human society. The sages of Naimiṣāraṇya are anxious to disentangle all fallen souls, and here they are seeking the remedy from Śrīla Sūta Gosvāmī.
Pamho agtacbsp, unfortunately we are loitering up down the fourteen planetary system of this quarter of material sky ekamsena stitho jagat everyone got his karma under the three gunas of material nature so everyone is faulty guilty etc..compare to his guna quality and karma action and reaction we got the way out but is taking ages then this is Kali yuga the worse age with the worse people we can see that symptom in the kali Chela citizens everyday manda bhagya upadrutah very misfortunate always disturbed etc…but at least we didn’t spoil this life like we done in the previous one I mean we are more religious by the mercy of SSGG,bhakti yoga can be a slow process and take many lives unless one is lucky enough to chant hare KRSNA purely then can be a very fast process most important think is to practice KRSNA Smarana especially in the dangerous moments because this age is very dangerous so this danger can be our fortune in KRSNA Smarana kaler dosha nidhe rajan asti he eko mahaguna kirtana eva krsnasya mukta sanga param vrajet, agtacbsp ys haribol
Pamho agtacbsp,is not a joke I mean the so called government take half of the karma of all citizens especially the president of a nation is responsible and take the karma for such responsibilities,the politicians are worse the women and canakya pandit said: never trust a politician and women, because one is the shelter of the rogues and the sudrani women is the shelters of the lust desire who will destroy both of them than nothing is permanent in this world full of misery and suffering therefore it’s more easy to get attachment because in bhakti only the attachment is the devotees i Sri krishna.agtacbsp ys haribol
The present Kali Yuga age is not very advanced yet but we can see already the symptoms of this evil age therefore we harry up in the way back home before it gets worse by not space out with the mind by keeping it engage in recite kavacham especially the Sri narasimha kavacham to avoid the evil influence of Kali devi agtacbsp ys haribol
Indian ‘partition’ is STILL happening with latest ‘Color Revolution’ CIA coup in Bangladesh, as ousted Prime Minister refused US Military Base in Bangladesh! USA (and proxies UK and Pakistan ) want this base to threaten, manipulate and control India (just as they are doing in UK with their ‘2 tiered system’ where the police regard Muslims as ‘first class citizens’ but ‘white Christians’ are now SECOND CLASS CITIZENS!
THIS IS CALLED ‘DIVIDE AND RULE!’ and in Europe this is known as the ‘Kalergi plan’ first to DESTROY Christianity (and eventually also Islam) as the designers of this ‘DIVIDE AND RULE’ program ARE ALL FREEMASONS, KABBALISTS AND SATANISTS, GENDER INVERTS, OR HOMOSEXUALS AND PSYCHOPATHS! WHO KNEW THAT “INCLUSION” ACTUALLY MEANS ‘EXCLUSION OF NORMAL PEOPLE’
SAME AS POISONERS AND USURPERS OF ISKCON! AS THEY ARE PART OF THIS UN PLAN! WITH HIJRA BHAJANEERS, GENDER-INVERTED GBC, SABHA, AND “PODCASTERS!” ISKCON NOW MEANS ONE HAS TO MANDATE WORSHIP OF GENDER-INVERTED POISONERS OF SRILA PRABHUPADA THAN SRILA PRABHUPADA HIMSELF! DO YOU REALLY THINK “DISCIPLES” CARE IF THEIR FAKE GURU IS GENDER-INVERTED! ……. THE DISCIPLES ARE GENDER-BENDERS THEMSELVES!
SO MANY GENDER-BENDER DISCIPLES IN ISKCON WITH GENDER-BENDER “GOOROOS” ALL FROM DEMONIC FREEMASON FAMILIES (GENERATIONAL GENDER INVERSION!) THIS IS “DIVIDE AND RULE” FOLLOWED OF COURSE BY “REPLACEMENT” (AND NO IT’S NOT A “THEORY!”).
THERE IS A ‘REAL AND THREATENING’ EXTERNAL ENEMY (JUST AS IN MAHABHARATA!). ANY COUNTRY WHO’S GOVERNMENT APPLAUDS FILTHY ZIONIST, SATANIC WAR CRIMINALS (SUCH AS SATANYAHU IN WASHINGTON) IS DOOMED TO DESTRUCTION! THIS IS WHY THE US GOVERNMENT WANTS THE US CITIZENS TO TO VOTE FOR THEM! SO THEY HAVE A ‘MANDATE’ FROM THE PUBLIC TO MURDER! THEREBY DISTRIBUTING ALL OF THE BAD KARMA “BACK TO THE POPULACE!”
POLITICIANS ARE PATHOLOGICAL LYING ZIONIST SCUM! DO NOT ‘BUY” INTO THEIR DEATH-CULT IDEOLOGY! USA (MILITARY COMPLEX) ONLY BUSINESS IS WAR AND WAR PROFITEERING! THIS WAS THE CONCLUSION OF FORMER US MARINE AND WEAPONS INSPECTOR SCOTT RITTER (WHO IS PRESENTING VERY ACCURATE NEWS ANALYSIS OF CURRENT WORLD SITUATION.
SCOTT WAS ‘WEAPONS INSPECTOR’ IN IRAQ.
SCOTT TOLD US GOVERNMENT “THERE WERE NO WOMD’S IN IRAQ …… BUT THEY ARE A DEATH CULT AND MAKE BILLIONS FROM WAR AND DEATH SO THEY MURDERED OVER A MILLION IRAQIS (MAINLY WOMEN AND AND CHILDREN) ANYWAY, TORTURED PRISONERS AND MADE A FORTUNE!
IF YOU VOTE FOR SATANIC RAKSASAS WHO RAPE, TORTURE, MURDER CHILDREN … CANNIBALIZING THEM AND DRINKING THEIR BLOOD …. YOUR COUNTRY WILL INCURE THE FULL WRATH OF GOD AND BE TOTALLY DESTROYED! WE ARE SEEING THE BEGINNING OF THIS NOW!
YOUR OWN GOVERNMENT WANTS YOU DEAD! AND THEY ARE STILL TELLING ‘FAIRY-TALES’ ABOUT THE VAX666INE AND 5G! SRILA PRABHUPADA NEVER VOTED! …… ONLY A MADMAN WOULD VOTE FOR A PACK OF LYING PARASITES THAT WANT TO KILL YOU!
The Illusion is so thick you can cut in slices. Just Glad. I am not 18 – I get to Check Out. Unlike Hotel California, where you can Never Leave.

Hotel California Lyrics by the Eagles:
On a dark desert highway
Cool wind in my hair
Warm smell of colitas
Rising up through the air
Up ahead in the distance
I saw a shimmering light
My head grew heavy and my sight grew dim
I had to stop for the night
There she stood in the doorway
I heard the mission bell
And I was thinking to myself
This could be heaven or this could be hell
Then she lit up a candle
And she showed me the way
There were voices down the corridor
I thought I heard them say
Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place (such a lovely place)
Such a lovely face
Plenty of room at the Hotel California
Any time of year (any time of year)
You can find it here
Her mind is Tiffany-twisted
She got the Mercedes-Benz, uh
She got a lot of pretty, pretty boys
That she calls friends
How they danced in the courtyard
Sweet summer sweat
Some dance to remember
Some dance to forget
So I called up the captain
"Please bring me my wine"
He said, "We haven't had that spirit here since 1969"
And still those voices are calling from far away
Wake you up in the middle of the night
Just to hear them say
Welcome to the Hotel California
Such a lovely place (such a lovely place)
Such a lovely face
They're livin' it up at the Hotel California
What a nice surprise (what a nice surprise)
Bring your alibis
Mirrors on the ceiling
The pink champagne on ice
And she said, "We are all just prisoners here
Of our own device"
And in the master's chambers
They gathered for the feast
They stab it with their steely knives
But they just can't kill the beast
Last thing I remember
I was running for the door
I had to find the passage back
To the place I was before
"Relax," said the night man
"We are programmed to receive
You can check out any time you like
But you can never leave"
