Following Krishna's Program - Prabhupada 0165



721230 - Lecture BG 13.03 - Bombay

We are asking people to follow Kṛṣṇa's program. Don't plan your own rascal program. You'll never be happy. But we are busy for rascal program. We do not know what is happening as a resultant action.

That means, yajñārthāt karmaṇaḥ anyatra karma-bandhanaḥ (BG 3.9). If you work simply for satisfaction of Kṛṣṇa, that is called yajña. Kṛṣṇa's another name is Yajña. Or Viṣṇu, Yajñeśvara. So yajñārthe karma, that's nice. You are free from any interaction or resultant action of your karma. You are not responsible.

It is very, very easy to understand. Just like in a office, if you work for the satisfaction of the proprietor, then you have no responsibility, either loss or gain, you are free. But if you create your own plan and work for . . . under your own responsibility, then you'll suffer or enjoy.

Actually there is no enjoyment. It is simply suffering.
