Harikeśa: So the incentive is the happiness in society? Prabhupāda: Yes. That is everyone is hankering after: "Where is happiness?" This will be the happiness. When people will be peaceful, happy in their living condition, that will bring happiness, not by imagining that "If I have got a skyscraper building, I will be happy," and then jump over and commit suicide. That is going on. He is thinking that "If I have a skyscraper building, I will be happy," and when he is frustrated, he jumps down. That is going on. This is happiness. That means all rascals. They do not know what is happiness. Therefore everyone requires guidance from Kṛṣṇa. That is Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Now you were saying that there is high rate of suicide here? Puṣṭa Kṛṣṇa: Yes.

This is society. Now, as soon as . . . At the present moment, as soon as one wants to be educated, he requires money. But in the Vedic society there is no question of money. Education free.
