Prabhupāda: In Bengal, they worship Durgā-mātā. So it is a story, the Durgā-mātā, the Goddess Durgā, is asking the devotee, "My dear boy, you are happy?" "Yes, mother, I am very happy. Simply two things wanting." "What is this?" "I have no food, I have no clothing." Just see.

This is story, just try to understand that, "I am happy, but two things wanting: no food, no clothing." You see? But is that happiness—no food, no clothing? Similarly, this Russian country, they are very much proud of advancement, but no food sufficient and no freedom. No food and no freedom, that's all. This is the sum and substance.

So in your country also that position may come. Now in America you are happy. Because the nature is changing. ''Jagat''. ''Jagat'' means which is changing. So before any further changes come, you spread this Kṛṣṇa consciousness all over your country. You see? Utilize these fruits and flowers for Kṛṣṇa and be happy. Don't slip down. You see? That is my request. Whatever I could do, I have done. Now it is up to you to spread this movement all over the world. Don't go away. You see? There is some tendency, somebody. Therefore, I ask you, no. You see?

This is all nonsense. This is ''māyā's'' peeping, "Why you are working so hard for a sentiment, chanting and dancing? Come on, take to service and be happy with your wife and children." This is ''māyā''. This is ''māyā''. I did not ask my students to marry to become a lost child. I wanted to give them some facility, because you cannot do without wife. But now I am seeing that some of them are slipping away. This is not to be done. No.

Every one of us as good as ''sannyāsī'', because we have sacrificed everything for Kṛṣṇa. ''Sannyāsī'' does not mean simply having no wife and children, he's a ''sannyāsī''. No. Nothing to possess except Kṛṣṇa. That is ''sannyāsī''. One should know that "I will have simply Kṛṣṇa, nothing more." Then he is ''sannyāsī''. This mentality, that "I have nothing to serve; I have nobody to serve except Kṛṣṇa." But if you serve Kṛṣṇa, you will serve everyone.

Just like I was teaching this Indian gentleman. The same process: If you pour water on the root of the tree, automatically the branches, the leaves and the flowers are all served. If you put the foodstuff here, not here, not here, then automatically this is served. Although the foodstuff is here, automatically this is served, this is served, this is served, this is . . . everybody served. This is practical. If you serve Kṛṣṇa, then all service will be included. They are serving humanitarian and so on.

Suppose I, I am Indian, I came to your country. Why I came to your country in this old age? That is service. To give Kṛṣṇa conscious, that's the best service. Without any distinction of caste, creed, country, color. No. Everyone should have Kṛṣṇa. This is the best service. Go everywhere, every part of the world, and give Kṛṣṇa. That is the best service you can do.</p>
