Bahulasva: Better to just chant and dance.
Prabhupada: Yes.
Bahulasva: That is why they become mad, because they become envious that we are chanting and dancing; they are working very hard.
Krsnadasa: They won't join.
Prabhupada: Yes, they asked in Los Angeles that "How is that? You do not work, and you are living so comfortably?" They are envious. And the greatest economist, Professor Marshall, he has said that if man gets money, automatically he will not work. That is the basic prin... Therefore they are creating daily new invention.
Brahmananda: For more working.
Prabhupada: Hah. They are creating, yearly, motorcar to allure them to work and purchase. That is the economic..., whole economic basis.
Dharmadhyaksa: There's a case in Africa when the British took over Africa, Srila Prabhupada, that they had to charge the natives a tax, let's say fifty dollars a year, and they would work... To make fifty dollars a year they would... (break) ...transcending dualities.
Prabhupada: First-class men. Our definition of God is, na tasya karyam karanam ca vidyate (Svetasvatara Upanisad 6.8). "He has nothing to do." This is God. Na tasya karyam karanam ca vidyate: "He has nothing to do." He is simply enjoying, dancing with the gopis, that's all. Why He should go to work? Then what kind of God He is? Na tasya karyam karanam ca vidyate.
Devotee: But He also says in Gita that He works too.
Prabhupada: Just to teach these rascals to work. Because here, without working, you cannot get your food. Therefore laziness condemned here in this material world. And in the spiritual world the Supreme Person is the most lazy person. (laughter)
Bahulasva: Just like yesterday you told the reporters. When they asked why such a big cart, so you told them that God should have a big cart.
Prabhupada: And where is this car? When God assumes the universal form, where is the car? You have no such car. So this car is the smallest car of all. He has got... When He showed His visva-rupa to Arjuna, so for that visva-rupa where is the car? You cannot do.
Devotee: When Krsna is demonstrating work, He demonstrates in the form of Lord Visnu, not in His pastimes in Vrndavana, but more in the form of Visnu? Or how does He show?
Prabhupada: In Vrndavana there is no work. Outside Vrndavana there is killing of the demons. When He came out of Vrndavana, He began His business by killing His uncle, that Kamsa. Then so many other demons came, one after another. He had to fight. Even He had to marry by fighting.
