In this position of harassment, how the peaceful varṇāśrama can be revived? It is very difficult. It is almost impossible. Therefore this system should be taken. What is this system? Saṅkīrtanair yajñair yajanti hi su-medhasaḥ. Those who have got brain, they will worship Viṣṇu. Yajña means to satisfy Viṣṇu. Yajñaiḥ saṅkīrtana-prāyaiḥ. Viṣṇur ārādhyate puṁsāṁ nānyat tat-toṣa . . . the whole aim is to satisfy Viṣṇu. Therefore Viṣṇu comes Himself: Kṛṣṇa. Viṣṇu comes Himself as Caitanya Mahāprabhu and teaches. There is no difference between Viṣṇu's teachings . . . other, bogus teacher, they can teach something else, but Viṣṇu's teachings . . . just like Kṛṣṇa. Whatever Kṛṣṇa . . . of course, Kṛṣṇa incarnation was after Kapila's incarnation. Before that, there were other Viṣṇu incarnation.

People will be so much harassed that ācchinna-dāra-draviṇā gacchanti giri-kānanam (SB 12.2.8). They'll be disgusted so much, they will give up their family all of a sudden. Dāra-draviṇāḥ. Dāra means wife, children and bank balance, everything, "Let them go to . . ." Recently we have seen one big industrialist, he has committed suicide. So people will do that, they'll be so much harassed. This is Kali-yuga.

So in this position of harassment, how the peaceful varṇāśrama can be revived? It is very difficult. It is almost impossible. Therefore this system should be taken. What is this system? Saṅkīrtanair yajñair yajanti hi su-medhasaḥ. Those who have got brain, they will worship Viṣṇu. Yajña means to satisfy Viṣṇu. Yajñaiḥ saṅkīrtana-prāyaiḥ. Viṣṇur ārādhyate puṁsāṁ nānyat tat-toṣa . . . the whole aim is to satisfy Viṣṇu. Therefore Viṣṇu comes Himself: Kṛṣṇa. Viṣṇu comes Himself as Caitanya Mahāprabhu and teaches. There is no difference between Viṣṇu's teachings . . . other, bogus teacher, they can teach something else, but Viṣṇu's teachings . . . just like Kṛṣṇa. Whatever Kṛṣṇa . . . of course, Kṛṣṇa incarnation was after Kapila's incarnation. Before that, there were other Viṣṇu incarnation. So here it is said, tam imaṁ te pravakṣyāmi yam avocaṁ purā anaghe. Purā, "Formerly. I am not manufacturing." Nowadays it has become a fashion to manufacture a new system of religion. It is not that. It is not new. Old, purā. Kṛṣṇa also says that:

imaṁ vivasvate yogaṁ
proktavān aham avyayam
vivasvān manave prāha
manur ikṣvākave 'bravīt
(BG 4.1)
evaṁ paramparā-prāptam
imaṁ rājarṣayo viduḥ
(BG 4.2)

"And I am speaking that very yoga system again to you." So this is real incarnation.
