- They (politicians, sociologists, philanthropists, etc.) do not know what is actually beneficial for human society. BG 1972 purports

- They (so-called scientists & philosophers) are the heads of education and public leaders. Andha yathandhair upaniyamanah (SB 7.5.31). They do not know what is the objective of life; what for the human life is meant. They do not know

- They (the people) say the Vaisnava religion is slave mentality. They say. They do not know that it is success of life to become slave of Krsna. They do not know. Who has become happy trying to become master
- They (the rascals) do not know that living creature is eternal, therefore they want to make the ultimate solution as void, zero. But it cannot be zero. It is not possible, because you are eternal. Therefore you have to cure & that curing process is KC
- They (the sahajiya class) do not know that humility and meekness are appropriate when one's own honor is insulted but not when Lord Visnu or the acaryas are blasphemed. In such cases one should not be humble and meek but must act

- "They do not know what are the "do's" and what are the "do not's." This is the first qualification of the asuras. They do not know. Because they do not like to take lesson from superior. They manufacture their own lesson
- They do not know anything. They do not know even that Krsna is the Supreme Personality of Godhead. But they do not like to love anybody than Krsna. This is their only qualification
- They do not know even that there is birth after death. Such a foolish civilization. Although we are experiencing every moment birth and death . . . Birth and death every moment, it is going on so finely. It is Krsna's arrangement
- They do not know that although whatever they are doing may be very good, if it is not ultimately sanctioned by God, by Krsna, it will all be a failure

- They do not know that there is life after death and there is eternal life, there is eternal happiness. They do not know. Karanam guna sango 'sya
- They do not know that there is life after death. Otherwise, why there are so many varieties of life? They concoct their own conclusion
- They do not know that they are going to hell. That is rascaldom. By their so-called scientific advancement, philosophy, education, they are going to hell. That they do not know. Therefore they are rascals
- They do not know that they are spoiling their life. They are thinking that, "I've got very nice apartment, very nice car, very nice wife, very nice income, very nice social position." So many things. These are the material attraction
- They do not know that, My svartha, my interest, my goal of life, is to love, to find out God and to love Him. That is my real interest

- They do not know the real duty is to approach Visnu, svartha-gatim, interest. They are thinking, "This is my interest." But real duty is svartha-gatim
- They do not know the real problem is janma-mrtyu-jara-vyadhi. Therefore, following the real religious principle means sad-dharma
- They do not know the Supreme Personality of Godhead. What, then, is the use in studying all the Vedas if one cannot grasp the essence of them, Krsna? The Lord confirms in BG(15.15), vedais ca sarvair aham eva vedyah: "By all the Vedas, I am to be known."
- They do not know what is civilization. This is civilization, huh? Brahmana. And they will think, "What is this nonsense, to worship a brahmana, to give food to the brahmana-bhojana?"
- They do not know what is freedom and whose freedom. That they do not know. Therefore they have created so many newspapers for freedom, the so-called freedom. But there is no freedom. Even big, big leaders, they have no freedom

- They do not know what is meditation. They are... Simply it is a farce. That is another cheating process by the so-called swamis and yogis. They do not know what is meditation
- They do not know what is self-preservation. That is another ignorance. They consider this body as the self. Their self-preservation means to keep this body. And that is also not possible

- They do not know what is the importance of the varnasrama-dharma. They have broken it. They don't like. They want to say classless society
- They do not know what is the meaning of religion. Therefore they create some religious system. They create: "Let me create something. After all, it is bluffing"

- They do not know what is the truth, and still, they write books, they write commentaries unauthorizedly and mislead public. This is going on
- They do not know what is the value of life, how to make this human form of life successful. Mandah. Just like we are chanting all over the whole world that "Chant Hare Krsna mantra and you will be happy." Still, they are not very much interested
- They do not know what is truth or what is truthfulness. Or, in other words, everyone is liar. I have seen many big, big gentlemen that for nothing they will speak lies
- They do not know, and (yet) they theorize. The Darwin's theory cannot give any reasonable cause
- They do not know, that they should produce sufficient food grains. These, all these contraceptive methods, this and that, monogamy, they are trying for checking population. Is it not
- They do not know. They are thinking, "This is a flickering lamp. Oh, let us enjoy." Very risky civilization

- They don't know that such a husband cannot actually give protection to them or their children. Nor can he protect their wealth or duration of life, for he himself is dependent on time, fruitive results & modes of nature, which are all subordinate to You
- They say "street dog." He has no food. He has no shelter. He is lean and thin and do not know where to go. In this way. So the constitutional position of the dog is that it must have a good master. Then he is happy

- They think that one can improve. That is not possible. Unless he changes the quality, he cannot improve. That is not possible. They do not know it

- This (accepting Krsna as an ordinary human being) is condemned in the Bhagavad-gita (BG 9.11): Fools deride Me when I descend in the human form. They do not know My transcendental nature as the Supreme Lord of all that be
- This (BG 8.25-26) is all by chance. We do not know when we are going to die, and we may die accidentally at any time. But for one who is a bhakti-yogi, who is established in Krsna consciousness, there is no question of chance. He is always sure
- This (going to guru) is the process. But the demons, they do not know this is the process. They speculate; they manufacture. Simply by jugglery of words they manufacture their truth
- This (the blood corpuscles are changing, and the body is different) is the preliminary knowledge of advancing in spiritual knowledge. You do not know what is spirit - and what is the spiritual knowledge?
- This (who do not know the spiritual value of life, can be satisfied with external material opulences, but those who are atma-tattva-vit are not inspired by material opulence) is the instruction we can derive from the life and activities of Saubhari Muni
- This asuric public, they do not know which way their destination is. They say it is self-interest, but these rascals, they do not know what is the self-interest, because their very beginning of life is mistaken. They are thinking this body is the self
- This conception of the Lord and the earth as father and mother is explained in Bhagavad-gita (BG 14.4). Conditioned souls are devoted to the motherland in which they take their birth, but they do not know their father
- This is a great opportunity we have got, this human form of life. Once missed, you do not know what is the loss. We do not know what is going to happen in our next life. But if you take to KC, it is guaranteed that you get another human form of life
- This is also very difficult to become brahma-bhutah. We are now jiva-bhutah, but people are not interested to become brahma-bhutah or devotee of Krsna. They are interested to continue this material way of life, changing the body. They do not know
- This is demonic nature. They will simply try to suppress Krsna consciousness movement. Because these symptoms are there: na saucam napi cacaro na satyam tesu vidyate (BG 16.7). There is no truthfulness. They do not know what is ultimate truth
- This is fact, that when this body is no more working, the subtle body carries the soul to another gross body. That they cannot see, but it acts. This science they do not know. Seeing is always not competent, material eye

- This is the demonic civilization. They do not know what is the aim of life. And, in the material atmosphere, they're not happy, they're failing always, missing the real point
- This is the missing point of modern civilization. They do not know . . . there is no educational system in the university what happens after death
- This is the modern civilization. They do not know what is the goal of life. And without knowing the goal of life, they are trying to adjust things on this material platform
- This is the system of varnasrama-dharma - four kinds of varnas and four kinds of asrama. It is very scientific. The whole idea of human civilization should be how to push one to Krsna consciousness, to Visnu. Because they do not know
- This is their position, mudha, raksasa, thinking that "I am living this fifty years or hundred years so luxuriantly. That is the fulfillment of life." Because he does not know the life is eternal, one spot he is taking very important
- This is Vaisnava's qualification. He is very kind. Titiksavah karunikah. (SB 3.25.21). Just like Lord Jesus Christ. He was being crucified. Still, he was saying, "My father, they do not know what they are doing." Is it not
- This is very instructive verse (SB 7.9.19). The whole world is planning to give relief to the suffering humanity, but foolish people, do not know you may do your best, but if it is not sanctioned by Supreme Lord, all these measures will not be of any use
- This Krsna consciousness movement means to find out the supreme father. Supreme father. That is the sum and substance of this movement. If we do not know who is our father, that is not a very good position
- This life is meant for tattva-jijnasa. Not a single moment should be wasted if we actually want to save ourself. But we do not know what is saving
- This life is preparation for the next life. These are simple truth. But people are in ignorance. They do not know anything. And they're keeping them in ignorance and bluffing them in so many ways
- This life will be finished, and you do not know what kind of body you are going to get next. The best guarantee is that you execute Krsna consciousness, chant Hare Krsna mantra constantly, remain pure by following the regulative principles
- This material world is a prison house for us. They do not know that, they are making plans that "In this prison house we shall be happy." Therefore there is tri-tapa-yatana
- This material world, we are living in darkness, hrdayandhakaram. Our heart is dark. We do not know what is what
- This objective of everyone's interest is Visnu, but because people do not know this (na te viduh svartha-gatim hi visnum (SB 7.5.31)), they are making various plans by which to fulfill so many concocted interests in life
- This risky civilization is going on. They don't want to know what is God, neither they want to satisfy Him. And our Krsna consciousness movement is just the opposite, that "Here is God. You satisfy Him." That's all

- We do not know that we are bound by the stringent laws of material nature. How can we become free from this material bondage

- We do not know when this body will stop, so let us immediately engage in Krsna consciousness and act accordingly. "But if I immediately engage myself in Krsna consciousness, what about my means of livelihood?" That is arranged for
- We do not know when we shall die. Before the next death we must complete this Krsna consciousness education
- We do not know when we shall meet our next death, our next exit from this platform. But before going out of this platform, we may try to finish Krishna Consciousness. That is our main business
