Kṛṣṇa is gṛhastha. Our worshipable Lord is gṛhastha. He’s not sannyāsa. Is it sannyāsa? Why He should be? He is the supreme enjoyer, why He should be sannyāsa . . . sannyāsi? Enjoyer . . . sannyāsī is not enjoyer. But His description is enjoyer. Now how enjoyer can be sannyāsī? But He is still sannyāsī—renounced, everything. That is the point.

Prabhupāda: So similarly, we shall preach. It is true that our authorities . . . always reading should be continually going on in our centers. These books, regularly should be discussed and preached: the ideal life of Kṛṣṇa, ideal gṛhastha, householder, what He is doing. Our gṛhastha is not condemned, but provided he is right gṛhastha. But Kṛṣṇa had sixteen thousand wives. He is lying down there with Kṛṣṇa . . . they are lying down, and who can leave Kṛṣṇa? If one has got Kṛṣṇa . . . they know Kṛṣṇa is the Supreme Personality of Godhead. So they are embracing Kṛṣṇa. How much happy they are? Eh?

Śyāmasundara: Yes. (laughs)

Prabhupāda: But still Kṛṣṇa gets out.

Śyāmasundara: (laughs) As soon as the first cock is crowing.

Prabhupāda: How much devoted, beautiful. They are select . . . spiritual, they are not material. Their bodies are not material bodies. Kṛṣṇa does not embrace a material woman.

Śyāmasundara: Hmm.

Prabhupāda: All these queens are spiritual. All the gopīs, they are spiritual. Ānanda-cinmaya-rāsa-pratibhāvitābhis (Bs 5.37): and they are all made of ānanda-cinmaya-rāsa.

So He is showing the life of a gṛhastha: early rising, giving in charity to the Brāhmiṇs, and living daily duty. Still, He has got children, getting children married somehow or another. So gṛhastha life is not bad—never bad. Kṛṣṇa is gṛhastha. Our worshipable Lord is gṛhastha. He’s not sannyāsa. Is it sannyāsa? Why He should be? He is the supreme enjoyer, why He should be sannyāsa . . . sannyāsi? Enjoyer . . . sannyāsī is not enjoyer. But His description is enjoyer. Now how enjoyer can be sannyāsī? But He is still sannyāsī—renounced, everything. That is the point.
