Conversations and Morning Walks

1976 Conversations and Morning Walks

If every man takes whatever he wants absolutely, then there is no difficulty. That is your complication. But why there should be fight? Father's property of every son. He'll take as much as he requires. Accept father, His property, and take as much as you require. Don't take more. That is real communism. So where is that communism? Who has it? (break) . . . philosophers. The material nature, the mother; and God is the father; and we are all children. That's all. Plain truth.

Prabhupāda: Stena eva sa ucyate (BG 3.12). In Bhāgavata it is written that everything belongs to God. You take whatever is your necessity. You take more, then you'll be punished. This is Bhāgavata's statement. So now the business is to become capitalist. He's taking more, holding the whole stock, at least in India. It is not coming to the market, and people are starving. So they will be punished. (break) . . . also. The excess grain they are throwing into the sea. So they'll be punished. They are also waiting, starvation. (break) . . . spiritual communism. Don't take more. Just like the natural birds, if you just keep one bag of rice here, he'll come, but they will take three, four grains, and they'll go away. And if you ask a man, "Here is some stack of rice." "Ah, I'll take." Immediately finished. One man will take it, everything: "Oh, I've got it free. Let me take away." But the birds, they're under natural law. They know, "Ah, I have finished. I have got my belly filled up. I don't require any more." So God has given everything sufficiently. If every man takes whatever he wants absolutely, then there is no difficulty. That is your complication. But why there should be fight? Father's property of every son. He'll take as much as he requires. Accept father, His property, and take as much as you require. Don't take more. That is real communism. So where is that communism? Who has it? (break) . . . philosophers. The material nature, the mother; and God is the father; and we are all children. That's all. Plain truth. (break) . . . accept this philosophy?

Śukadeva: The sane people, the sane persons, they will accept.
