A New Mode Of Thinking - Prabhupada 0638

660401 - Lecture BG 02.48-49 - New York

The cooking you cannot avoid. As a householder you have to cook for yourself, you have to cook for your children, you have to cook for somebody else or for your own self.

Just like I am cooking. I have no here family or children, but I am cooking for myself. So cooking you cannot stop. But if you cook with the understanding that "This foodstuff is being cooked for the Lord. The Lord may be offered first; then we shall take," this is God consciousness. This is God consciousness. But is it very difficult thing? Anyone can accept this. Anyone can do it. It is not . . . because your cooking business is not stopped. Simply the mode of thinking has to be changed. That's all.
