Anyone knows that nothing takes place automatically unless one living force adjusts the materials. The house does not come automatically, although the ingredients are there. It has to be handled by a living entity, and then the house is appearing as one of the product of this material world. Similarly, we have to consider that this big cosmic manifestation is not creation of blunt material energy.

Prabhupāda: . . . his position. And from his statements any sane man will understand also his position. Don't claim that, "I am God. I am Supreme." Just try to understand what is your position. Most insignificant position. How do you claim that you are God?

So Yamarāja says, (reads Śrīdhara Swami Sanskrit commentary) ''ko 'sau yatra yasmin vittam otam protam urdham urdhva tiryak tanti tu tatavat yasya tu amsabhyo brahma-visnu-rudrebhyasya trtiyadaya bhagavān tu yasya ca bhase loka vartase nasi nasikayam prota bali madhyam iva vastu''.

So, before claiming oneself as the Supreme, one should consider how he is the Supreme. There are different controllers. And the supreme controller, as is explained by Yamarāja, is one who creates this cosmic manifestation, maintains and again annihilates. He is the Supreme. And this is confirmed by ''Bhagavad-gītā'', that this ''prakṛti'', or the nature, is not working independently. The scientists take it, a platform, that the nature is doing out of its own accord.

That is not a very scientific proposal. Anyone knows that nothing takes place automatically unless one living force adjusts the materials. The house does not come automatically, although the ingredients are there. It has to be handled by a living entity, and then the house is appearing as one of the product of this material world. Similarly, we have to consider that this big cosmic manifestation is not creation of blunt material energy. No. That is not possible. There must be. How one can deny God? There is no possibility of denying God.

So Yamarāja is explaining that, "He is above me, the supreme controller, and He is the . . . He is such controller that He creates, He maintains and He annihilates also." We become so much harassed even for creating a family and maintaining them. We have become so much harassed. And foolishly we claim that we are the Supreme Personality of Godhead who creates the whole cosmic manifestation.

And Brahmā, Viṣṇu, Maheśvara, the directors of creation department, maintenance department and annihilation department . . . annihilation also required. That annihilation is one of the business of Kṛṣṇa, or God, for this material world. Not in the spiritual world. There is no annihilation.

Here it is required. Sometimes, because everyone has come here to lord it over the material nature, so there must be a ultimate situation when it becomes intolerable, and therefore Kṛṣṇa has to annihilate, finish. That is ''kalki-avatāra''.

:''mleccha-nivaha-nidhane kalayasi karavālaṁ''
:''dhūmaketum iva kim api karālam''
:''keśava dhṛta-kalki-śarīra jaya jagadīśa hare''
:(''Śrī Daśāvatāra-stotra 10'')

''Mleccha''. When people become ''mlecchas'' . . . ''mleccha'' means not following the Vedic principles. Those who are following the Vedic principles, they are classified ''guṇa-karma-vibhāgaśaḥ'' ([[BG 4.13 (1972)|BG 4.13]]), in four divisions. And beyond these four divisions, who are less than ''śūdras'', they are called ''mlecchas'' and ''yavanas'' and ''caṇḍāla''. Their behavior is so abominable that they cannot be accepted as civilized man.

Civilized man not by so-called material advancement. Civilized man is this four division of society—''brāhmiṇ'', ''kṣatriya'', ''vaiśya'' and ''śūdra''. That is civilized society. Where there is no such division, everyone is a ''śūdra'', that is not a civilized form of society. At the present moment the whole world is . . .
