Bhagavad-gita As It Is Lectures

So by culture of Kṛṣṇa science, when we understand the Kṛṣṇa science, then we become free from this ignorance. And Lord Kṛṣṇa recommends that: "By this knowledge, you can very easily cross over the ocean of nescience, ocean of ignorance." The whole thing, we are suffering due to . . . just like ignorance is no excuse in the law court. Suppose you have done something wrong, and if you say to the judge, "So I, I did not know, sir, this law," oh, that is no excuse. You'll be punished. You'll be punished.

Nobody can create the iron mine. We cannot create anything. Even in the economic laws, we cannot create anything. We can simply transform, just like worker or laborer. That's all. Suppose we manufacture a very nice table, but the ingredients, the wood, and the instrument, iron, oh, this is supplied by God. You cannot manufacture iron. You cannot manufacture the wood. So how . . . why do you claim that it is yours? This is ignorance. This is ignorance.

So by culture of Kṛṣṇa science, when we understand the Kṛṣṇa science, then we become free from this ignorance. And Lord Kṛṣṇa recommends that: "By this knowledge, you can very easily cross over the ocean of nescience, ocean of ignorance." The whole thing, we are suffering due to . . . just like ignorance is no excuse in the law court. Suppose you have done something wrong, and if you say to the judge, "So I, I did not know, sir, this law," oh, that is no excuse. You'll be punished. You'll be punished.

Now, in the śāstra, in the Vedic literature, it is said that "Everything belongs to God. Everything is manufactured by God. So everyone has right—not only human being; even the animals—everyone has got the right to live and use things as much as he requires. But if he stocks more, if he acquires more, he becomes the thief, and he is punishable." Now, suppose if I say: "Oh, I do not know this law. Therefore I have accumulated so much things in my control," oh, that does not mean that you'll not be punished. You'll be punished. You'll be punishable. This knowledge we require to know. And people at the modern age, they are lacking this knowledge.

So we require hundreds and thousands of spiritual master who has understood this Kṛṣṇa science and preach all over the world. That is the problem. Therefore we have formed this Society and we, we invite all sincere souls to take part in the Society and become a spiritual master, and preach this science all over the world. This is the . . . there is a great necessity of this knowledge.
