Prabhupāda:

:''yadā na paśyaty ayathā guṇehāṁ''
:''svārthe pramattaḥ sahasā vipaścit''
:''gata-smṛtir vindati tatra tāpān''
:''āsādya maithunyam agāram ajñaḥ''
:([[vanisource:SB 5.5.7|SB 5.5.7]])

So one has to be ''vipaścit'', learned, to understand the interest of life, self-interest. Everyone is working, especially the ''karmīs'', the ''jñānīs'', the ''yogīs'', and mixed devotees, they are working for self-interest. The devotees also, so long there is self, there is self-interest also. So there is little difference, that the devotees, they work for Super–self-interest. There is self, but it is Super–self-interest. And the ''karmīs'', ''jñānīs'', ''yogīs'', they work for individual self-interest. Self-interest there must be. That is the difference between lust and ''prema'', or love. It has been defined in the ''Caitanya-caritāmṛta'', what is the difference between lust and love. It appears almost the same, but Kṛṣṇadāsa Kavirāja Gosvāmī has given a definition very clear, ''ātmendriya-prīti-vāñchā-tāre bali 'kāma' ''([[vanisource:CC Adi 4.165|CC Adi 4.165]]). When one is interested for his personal sense gratification, that is called ''kāma'', or lust. And ''kṛṣṇendriya-prīti-vāñchā dhare 'prema' nāma'': and when one is interested for satisfying the senses of Kṛṣṇa, that is'' prema''. And the concrete example is there in the ''Bhagavad-gītā'', that in the beginning Arjuna was thinking of interest of the family: "How can I kill my brother, my nephews, my master, teacher, my grandfather?" in terms of his family interest.
