Bhagavad-gita As It Is Lectures

Actually I want somehow or other the post, and I, bhoga vañcha . . . either you become Communist, Socialist or Capitalist or this "ist" or that "ist," the real disease is bhoga-vañcha, "How I shall enjoy this world." That is the real disease.

Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu says that actual constitutional position of living entity is jīvera svarūpa haya nitya kṛṣṇa dāsa (Cc. Madhya 20.108-109), a living entity is eternally servant of Kṛṣṇa, part and parcel. Just like this finger is the part and parcel of this body. What is the business of this finger? It is to serve this, serve this body always. I want, "Mr. Finger, easy please come here," that is it, part and parcel means to serve the whole.

That is also explained in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, that these brahmin is the facial part of the universal form of the Lord, the kṣatriya is the arms of the universal form, the vaiśyas are the belly of the universal form of the Lord, and the śūdras, they are the legs of the universal form of the Lord. So the leg . . . the head may be very important part of the body, but you cannot neglect the legs.

If you want to keep the body in fitness, then the brain must work nicely, the hand must work nicely, the belly must work nicely, and the legs also must. Catur varṇyaṁ mayā sṛṣṭaṁ guṇa-karma-vibhāgaśaḥ (BG 4.13). So actually classless society means when these brāhmaṇa, kṣatriya, vaiśya, śūdra, they work for Kṛṣṇa. That is classless. That is Kṛṣṇa consciousness. The idea of classless society can be achieved when people become Kṛṣṇa conscious. It is so important movement.

Therefore I am speaking that the matter is placed before two Justices. Just try to understand. And for the benefit of the society, for the human society, for the human being, this Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement must be very seriously taken up and introduced. That is my point. Kṛṣṇa bhuliya jīva bhoga. Here, either you become this party or that party, the real purpose of forming party is to enjoy, and they bluff the people that "I shall give you this thing, that thing."

But actually I want somehow or other the post, and I, bhoga vañcha . . . either you become Communist, Socialist or Capitalist or this "ist" or that "ist," the real disease is bhoga-vañcha, "How I shall enjoy this world." That is the real disease.

So you can change from one party to another, but the real disease is there. The real disease can be cured here by Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement. I am eternal servant of Kṛṣṇa. Everything belongs to Kṛṣṇa.
