Prabhupāda: Without becoming Kṛṣṇa conscious, everyone's life is baffled. He's demon. So demons, they are trying only to adjust things materially, which is impossible. So they are busy, prabhavanti, flourishing. Prabhavanti. Prabhavanti means flourishing. Ugra-karmāṇaḥ. Karma . . . we have to do some work. That's a fact. Kṛṣṇa says that "Without doing something, you cannot maintain your body and soul together." Karmaṇo jyāyo . . . what is that?

Devotee: Karmāṇi limpanti ([[Vanisource:BG 4.14 (1972)|BG 4.14]])?

Prabhupāda: No. Karma is better than vikarma. The . . . Kṛṣṇa says that "You must be engaged in some work. You cannot sit idle. That is not good." "Idle brain is a devil's workshop." Kṛṣṇa never said that "My dear Arjuna, you are My first-class devotee. Now you sit down and I'll do everything for you." No. Kṛṣṇa never said. Rather, Arjuna was not willing to fight, and Kṛṣṇa was inducing him, "You must fight. You must fight." Kṛṣṇa never said that "You become idle kṛṣṇa-bhakta." Never said.

So those who are trying to be idle kṛṣṇa-bhaktas, they are not devotees. One must be engaged with Kṛṣṇa's work. That is devotion.
