| Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is so nice that the people who think that this humanitarian work is very valuable, that is automatically done. But at the same time we are giving something which will solve the problems of his life.

| So I am very much thankful to you that you are helping and cooperating. So Kṛṣṇa will bless you, and my Guru Mahārāja will be very much pleased upon you. So you continue this cooperation. Don't stop it. That will be good for the whole human society as well as for you personally. Kṛṣṇa consciousness is so nice. I remember in one of the Shakespeare's books, Merchant of Venice. So when Portia was appealing to Shylock, she was saying, "The mercy is so nice that one who accepts, he also becomes satisfied, and one who distributes, he also becomes satisfied." | | So I am very much thankful to you that you are helping and cooperating.

| So greatest mercy is this distribution of Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Ordinary mercy: you are suffering—I give you some medicine. Or you are hungry—I give you a morsel of food. You have no shelter—I give you some shelter. People estimate value of these things very high. But that is automatically done in Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement. We are also giving shelter; we are also giving food. So these things automatically come. | | So greatest mercy is this distribution of Kṛṣṇa consciousness.

| Just like we are getting now our birth in material body, similarly, if you become perfect in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, then you will get next birth spiritual body. And spiritual body means,

| Mām upetya kaunteya ([[Vanisource:BG 8.16|BG 8.16]]). Kṛṣṇa has got spiritual body, and you will get also spiritual body. The difference is that Kṛṣṇa never accepts material body, or there is no question of His material body. Because for Him there is no material thing. Just like for the sun there is no question of darkness. Try to understand. Sun, wherever sun rises, there is no question of darkness, automatically.

| Similarly, this material energy... Another example I give you: Just like your President Nixon, if he goes to the prison department, he does not become a prisoner. Even he is on the prison, within the prison walls, he is not considered... He is still the supreme free man.
| |
| | |
| But because President Nixon goes to, I mean to say, supervise the activities in the prison house, if a prisoner, ordinary criminal prisoner, thinks, "Oh, here is Mr. President Nixon, so it is very nice; we are also in the same position," no, that is foolishness. That is said in the Bhagavad-gītā, avajānanti māṁ mūḍhāmānuṣīṁ tanum āśritam ([[Vanisource:BG 9.11|BG 9.11]]). Kṛṣṇa says, "Because I am acting just like a human being, the foolish, rascal man, they consider that I am one of them."
