That is nonsense.
Lecture on SB 6.1.56-62 -- Surat, January 3, 1971, at Adubhai Patel's House:

Prabhupāda: Eh? (break) ...create vitality. Utsāha. Therefore it is called utsāhād dhairyāt tat-tat-karma-pravartanāt, niścayāt. Utsāha requires enthusiasm, vital force.

Guest (3): Devotion also.

Prabhupāda: Hm? All right.

Guest (3): Service to mankind is service to God. Remember.

Revatīnandana: Is that true, Śrīla Prabhupāda?

Prabhupāda: What is that?

Revatīnandana: That service to mankind is service God?

Prabhupāda: That is nonsense.

Guest (3): Doctor. For doctor, I mean.

Prabhupāda: Well, that is another thing. When doctor gives service to man, he does not give service to the man; he gives service to the money. (laughter)
