The Christian priestly class, they are not against us. Those who are saner class, they're admitting that, "Swāmījī is giving something tangible." Their fathers and forefathers come to me. They bow down. They say, "Swāmījī, it is a great fortune for us that you have come to our country." So I am alone working, and the movement is being appreciated. And if persons, scholars from this university come forward and teaches this movement, it is meant for that. brāhmins business is that, preaching. Brahmā jānāti. One must know Brahman and distribute the knowledge of brahma-jñāna. That is the business of brāhmins.
So I wanted to recite some stanzas from Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, but there is no very much time. Long, long years ago, the father of Mahārāja Bharata, under whose name this planet is called Bhārata-varṣa, so he instructed: nāyaṁ deho deha-bhājāṁ nṛloke kaṣṭān kāmān arhati viḍ-bhujāṁ ye (SB 5.5.1). Here is the Fifth Canto of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam. Nāyaṁ deho deha-bhājāṁ nṛloke kaṣṭān kāmān arhati viḍ-bhujāṁ ye: "This human form of life," ayam deha . . . ayam deha nṛloke: "In the human society." This is not meant for working very hard like the dogs and hogs. Kaṣṭān kāmān arhati viḍ-bhujāṁ ye. Simply by working hard day and night for sense gratification, this is done by the dogs and hogs. This is not meant for the human society.
But, but at the present moment, people are being instructed in such a way . . . I've seen so many—especially in Calcutta—so many educated boys and girls, they are hankering after service. Day and night they are working. This is not the effect of education. The effect of education should be peaceful mind, peaceful living. That is the duty of the parents, of the guardians, of the government. When there is monarchical government . . . we see from the reign of Prthu Mahārāja, he was seeing that every brāhmin is engaged in his occupational duty, every kṣatriya is employed, is engaged in his occupational duty. Similarly vaiśya. There was no question of unemployment.
