| <p>Prabhupāda: Responsibility is that you have got this human form of life. Realize God. This is your responsibility. Otherwise you are finished. Three words: "You have got this human form of life. Your only responsibility is to understand God. This is your responsibility." That is Vedic culture. For understanding God, many, many kings, many, many saints, they left everything and went to the forest to realize God. That is Vedic culture. Bhārata Mahārāja, under whose name India is called Bhāratavarṣa, he was the emperor of this planet, and at the age of twenty-four years he left everything to realize God. This is Vedic culture. Caitanya Mahāprabhu, His position was very, very nice, as a gṛhastha—a nice beautiful wife, affectionate mother, good influence, brāhmaṇa family, learned scholar, everything first class. He left everything just to show us. He was God Himself, but to set the example, tyaktvā sudustyaja-surepsita-rajya-lakṣmīm ([[Vanisource:SB 11.5.34|SB 11.5.34]]). He gave up a kingdom of fortune which is aspired by the demigods. Such a nice life, such a nice family, but He gave up. Tyaktvā sudustyaja-surepsita-rājya-lakṣmīm dharmistha arya... ([[Vanisource:SB 11.5.34|SB 11.5.34]]). Just to teach us the process of realizing God. This is Vedic system. (break) Somebody may not push. (break) ...water? No. Very deep?</p>

| <p>Prabhupāda: When you ask me... What is that, definition of respons...? So you understand what is the responsibility?</p>
| | <div class="quote_link"> |
| <p>Yogeśvara: We have this human life. We must realize God.</p>

| <p>Prabhupāda: This, three words. Make the rascals understand it. We speak the whole responsibility in three words. Is it complete or not?</p>

| <p>Brahmānanda: Yes.</p>
| | <div class="text"> |
| <p>Prabhupāda: Or you have got any protest? This is the only...</p>
| | Prabhupāda: Five thousand years ago. And Caitanya Mahāprabhu, five hundred years, how He accepted if it is finished? He is more than Caitanya Mahāprabhu, this rascal? |
| <p>Bhagavān: Let Śrīla Prabhupāda go through.</p>
| | |
| <p>Brahmānanda: They have not taken God realization as a responsibility.</p>
| | Yogeśvara: ''Haribol''. |
| <p>Prabhupāda: That is their misfortune.</p>
| | |
| <p>Brahmānanda: Simply as a pastime.</p>
| | Bhagavān: They are willing to take so many material risks, but they are not willing to try spiritual life. |
| <p>Prabhupāda: That is their ignorance. They do not know what is respons...</p>
| | |
| <p>Mādhavānanda: They would say that so many may have taken God realization as responsibility, following some Christ... church or something like that, but they are also frustrated.</p>
| | Prabhupāda: That is their fault. That is their foolishness. ''Mūḍho nābhijānāti mām ebhyaḥ param avyayam''. Therefore they are called ''mūḍhas''. |
| <p>Prabhupāda: We are not frustrated. Eh? We are not frustrated. Are we frustrated? Then? How the rascal says, "frustrated"? If you take false thing, then you will be frustrated. If you take real path of God realization, there is no question of frustration. It is ānandāmbudhi-vardhanam, increasing pleasure, no frustration.</p>
| | |
| <p>Mādhavānanda: Then they say that no one has real information of God.</p>
| | Yogeśvara: How would we define the word responsibility in Kṛṣṇa consciousness? |
| <p>Prabhupāda: You have no, rascal, because you are rascal. I have got. You just wash my feet, and I will inform you.</p>

| <p>Devotees: Jaya. Haribol. (break)</p>
