1974 Conversations and Morning Walks

You just stop this unemployment, you will see the whole world is peaceful; there is no complaint. And they'll very happily chant Hare Kṛṣṇa. Hmm? Nobody's working in this field. They're all drawn to the cities to work in the factory. Condemned civilization.

Prabhupāda: When there will be military march of Kṛṣṇa conscious soldiers, anyone who does not believe in Kṛṣṇa, "Blam! " (laughter) Yes. The same process as the Muhammadans did with sword and Koran, we'll have to do tha,. "Do you believe in Kṛṣṇa or not?" "No, sir." "Blam! " Finished. (laughter) (laughs) What do you think, Madhudviṣa Mahārāja? Is that all right?

Madhudviṣa: Yes.

Prabhupāda: (laughs) What these Communists can do? We can do better than them. We can kill many Communists like that. (laughter) Then it will be counteraction of Communist movement. And you think like that, "Why you are sitting idly, no employment? Come on to the field. Take this plow. Take this bull. Go on working. Why you are sitting idly?" This is Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement. Nobody should be allowed to sit down and sleep. They must find out some employment—either work as brahmin or as a kṣatriya or as a vaiśya. Why there should be unemployment? The same example: Just like I am . . . this body is working. The leg is working, hand is working, brain is working, belly is working. Why there should be unemployment? You just stop this unemployment, you will see the whole world is peaceful; there is no complaint. And they'll very happily chant Hare Kṛṣṇa. Hmm? Nobody's working in this field. They're all drawn to the cities to work in the factory. Condemned civilization. That Communist emblem, what is that?

Devotees: Hammer and sickle.

Prabhupāda: Yes. That is good.

Indian man: Yeah, good.

Prabhupāda: But no hammer. Only this . . . what is called?

Devotees: Sickle.

Prabhupāda: Sickle. No hammer. That will be our emblem. Only sickle. Not hammer. The hammer has hammered the whole human civilization. So just make a counter-emblem. The Communists will appreciate.

Devotee: Sickle and tilaka.

Prabhupāda: Eh?

Devotee: A sickle, and then a tilaka.

Prabhupāda: Yes, that is good idea. Guptajī? Come here. Ek koi dalal ko lagaiye hum ye sab jameen khareed lenge. Please engage some broker, we will buy all the land here.

Gupta: Bahut acha. Very nice.

Prabhupāda: Sabko lagayenge sab kaam me. Jitna aspas me jameen hai sab hum le lenge. Dekhiye toh kitna food grains ho sakta hai. Will engage everyone in work. Whatever land is here in nearby areas, all we will take. Just see how much food grains we can produce.

Gupta: Unemployment hai isliye log kaam nahi karna chahte hai. Unemployment is there, that's the reason people don't want to work. If they want to work . . .

Prabhupāda: Nahi nahi, kam kaise karega usko ganja pilayega usko sarab pilayega usko randi baaji kareyga toh kaam kaise karega? No no, how can they work? They will be given ganja, wine and womanising, so how they will be ready to work?

Gupta: Hmm. Kam kaise kareyga? How can they work.

Prabhupāda: Rascal civilization, rascal government. And people are transferred into rascals. Government ko bolo, dekho hum log unemployment solution karo humse cooperation karo. Aadmi sab bhuka mar raha hai. Bhagwan Krishna swayam bata rahe hai, Tell the Government. See we will give them a solution for the unemployment issue, let them cooperate with us. People are starving to death. Bhagawan Krishna Himself is telling. Annād bhavanti bhūtān (BG 3.14). Without anna, how they can live? There is no arrangement for anna. They're simply passing resolution, legislative laws. And no anna. Just see what kind of wretched government it is. Everywhere. There is no anna. Annād bhavanti bhūtāni. The first duty of government is to see that everyone is happy, without any anxiety. These preliminary necessities of life, āhāra-nidra-bhaya-maithunam, there must be sufficient arrangement for these preliminary necessities of life. One must eat sumptuously. Not over-eating, indigestion—no—but he must have sufficient food to keep up the health. Similarly, he must have place to sleep. We, we are prepared to offer everything. And be Kṛṣṇa conscious. This is our mission. Not by eating and sleeping, become rogues and thieves and rascals. That we will not allow. That is varṇāśrama-dharma.
