No Motive To Take From God - Prabhupada 0205



730410 - Lecture SB 01.08.18 - New York

Generally, they go to temple, to church, to . . . or mosque, generally, they go with a motive. Just like in the Christian world, they go that, "God must be order supplier. We shall pray to God, and He must supply. Then I accept God." This is the condition. "And if He does not supply my order, I don't care for this God."

So they are not going to become servant of God. They want to make God his servant. "God, give us our daily bread," that's all right. God is giving daily bread. Why you are asking, bothering God? He is supplying food to so millions and trillions of living entities, and why not to you? He will supply. That is not our problem, that God will supply our bread. He's supplying without asking. Do these the animals go to the church and ask for bread? But they are getting sufficient. They are getting sufficient.

Therefore God consciousness does not mean any motive to take from some God, something from God. That is not God consciousness. You give everything to God. That is God consciousness.
