Sri Brahma-samhita Lectures

Life is athāto brahma jijṣāsā: "This human form of life is meant for inquiring Brahman." And if you engage yourself in this Brahman business, or Kṛṣṇa consciousness business, rest assured, Kṛṣṇa will take care of you. Teṣāṁ satata-yuktānāṁ yoga-kṣemaṁ vahāmy aham (BG 10.10): "I will take care personally for their necessities of life." Ordinarily, Kṛṣṇa, or God, is taking care of everyone even if he's not in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, and those who are coming to Kṛṣṇa consciousness, what to speak of them? Special care by Kṛṣṇa. Rest assured. Engage yourself rigidly to Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Be happy. That is our program.

Your only business is to find out Brahman. That is your business. Nature has given you sufficient means to live very comfortably everywhere. If you get a piece of land and one cow, your whole economic question is solved. You haven't got to go fifty miles for working. There is no necessity. Wherever you are living, take little land and keep one cow; your economic question is solved.

So nature has given you all facilities.

prakṛteḥ kriyamāṇāni
guṇaiḥ karmāṇi sarvaśaḥ
ahaṅkāra-vimūḍha ātmā
kartāham iti manyate
(BG 3.27)

Everything is being supplied by the order of Kṛṣṇa, because prakṛti is working, nature is working . . . how it is working? Mayādhyakṣeṇa (BG 9.10).

Mayādhyakṣeṇa prakṛtiḥ sūyate sa carācaram. "Under My order," Kṛṣṇa says. Prakṛti, nature, is not working blindly. You see? It has got its master, Kṛṣṇa.

So this life is meant for brahma-jijṣāsā, inquiry, "What is Brahman?" Instead of inquiring Brahman, they are trying to kill Brahman. "There is no soul. There is no Supersoul. It is nature automatically becoming this." These nonsense things are being pushed within the . . . this rubbish brain of the human society.

They cannot explain. They cannot give right understanding. Still, they will say: "I am scientist," "I am philosopher," "I am this," "I am that." But your business . . . what is your business? Now, direct people wrongly, to go to hell.

So this is not life. Life is athāto brahma jijṣāsā: "This human form of life is meant for inquiring Brahman." And if you engage yourself in this Brahman business, or Kṛṣṇa consciousness business, rest assured, Kṛṣṇa will take care of you. Teṣāṁ satata-yuktānāṁ yoga-kṣemaṁ vahāmy aham (BG 10.10): "I will take care personally for their necessities of life." Ordinarily, Kṛṣṇa, or God, is taking care of everyone even if he's not in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, and those who are coming to Kṛṣṇa consciousness, what to speak of them? Special care by Kṛṣṇa. Rest assured. Engage yourself rigidly to Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Be happy. That is our program.
