That Is Rascaldom - Prabhupada 0236



750712 - Lecture SB 06.01.26-27 - Philadelphia

They are interested . . . Somebody is interested in his country; somebody is interested in his society or family. There, we have created so many things, duty. Therefore śāstra says that "These rascals do not know what is his actual self-interest." Na te viduḥ svārtha-gatiṁ hi viṣṇuṁ durāśayā. He is hoping something which will never be fulfilled. Therefore he is rascal. We are trying to adjust things within this material world to become happy, but the rascal does not know that so long he will remain in this material world, there is no question of happiness. That is rascaldom.
