Securing food, that is the business of grhasthas
Correspondence
1976 Correspondence
The sannyasis have no worries for producing and securing food. That is the business of grhasthas, but they devote their time to spreading spiritual knowledge.
Letter to Balavanta -- New York 8 July, 1976: The name for the Tennessee community is "Murarisevak". On the farms we should have mainly grhasthas. Farms are especially meant for the grhasthas. Brahmins and sannyasis are meant for begging food grains from the grhasthas. They depend on the grhasthas and the grhasthas treat them as their children. As the child is not a burden for the parents, so brahmanas and sannyasis are not burden for the grhasthas. They simply take food grains to survive but they give transcendental knowledge for the benefit of society. They have no worries for producing and securing food. That is the business of grhasthas, but they devote their time to spreading spiritual knowledge. That is the system.
