Prabhupāda: Just like in your body, it is not that body is made of head only, but head is required. You cannot avoid head, neither you can avoid the leg. So ''śūdra'' required, the ''brāhmaṇa'' required, the ''kṣatriya'' required and the ''vaiśya ''required. And the society should be very nicely managed. Therefore Kṛṣṇa says, ''cātur-varṇyaṁ''. Why does He not say one ''varṇa, brāhmaṇa''? Naturally there must be division, because all men are not of the same quality. You cannot expect. So whatever quality he has got, utilize that. ''Aṇḍha-khañja-nyāya. Aṇḍha-khañja-nyāya''. The one man is lame, and one man is blind. So both are useless. So they combine together. The lame man was taken on the shoulder of the blind man. So the lame man has no leg, but he has got eyes. He was directing, "Go this way." So both their business was perfect. Similarly, according to the quality of the work, there must be a class of man less intelligent. They cannot independently work. They must require a master. That is ''śūdra''. And then the ''vaiśya'', then the ''kṣatriya'', and the upper man is ''brāhmaṇa''. He gives the direction to the ''kṣatriya''. He is ruler.

Guest: (Bengali)

Prabhupāda: Yes, (Bengali) . . . really classless society. They should not be proud that, "I am ''brāhmaṇa''." No. As you are required, as much, the ''śūdra'' is also required. It is not that only the ''brāhmaṇas'' are required. This is a very scientific movement. (Bengali) It is not a bogus, sentimental thing. It is a very scientific movement. It is not so-called ''yogī'' and ''svāmī'' and everything equal. And where is equality?

Guest: The Hare Kṛṣṇa movement is a scientific movement?

Prabhupāda: Most scientific.

:''satataṁ kīrtayanto māṁ''
:''yatantaś ca dṛḍha-vratāḥ''
:''namasyantaś ca māṁ bhaktyā''
:''nitya-yuktā upāsate''

Guest: (Bengali: The aim is . . .) to realize the Supreme.

Prabhupāda: Realize the Supreme, that is the first and foremost aim, but at the same time, to keep the whole human society in perfect happiness.
