1975 Conversations and Morning Walks

You know medical science; we know spiritual science. So let us exchange and be happy. Why you are envious of us?.

Adi-kesava: Sometimes people criticize us, saying that we are teaching everyone how to do nothing; that we are teaching them about God, but how are we going to teach anyone to practically survive in the world? Sometimes they say like that, that we don't have any practical instruction as well.

Prabhupada: Practical?

Adi-kesava: Yes.

Prabhupada: What is not practical? We are not eating? We are not sleeping?

Adi-kesava: Yes, they are saying, "Oh, when will you learn to do a trade? When will you learn to perform business, or when will you learn to become a doctor, if you are always studying, talking about..."

Prabhupada: But you are doctor already. Why shall I become doctor? You serve me. We serve you by giving you Krsna consciousness; you serve me as a doctor. What is the wrong there? Parasparartham. I am for you; you are for me. Division of labor, that is accepted universally. So ask them, "Do you think that everyone should become doctor? Then where is the patient?" Eh? Everything is required. Similarly, you require our help also. It is cooperation. You know medical science; we know spiritual science. So let us exchange and be happy. Why you are envious of us? Why there is division in the body - head, arms, leg, belly? Why not everything head or everything leg? Why there is divided? That is natural. It is required. (pause) Why this road is neglected?

Madhavananda: It's mismanagement.

Adi-kesava: Even they are saying that, that we don't know how to..., we're not teaching anything practical.

Prabhupada: Huh?

Adi-kesava: Even sometimes they are saying we're not teaching anything practical.
