So our Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is no religious movement or any sectarian movement. This movement is to see everyone, every human being—not only human being, even the animals—everyone be happy. Sarve sukhino bhavantu. And the process is very simple.

We want to see everyone happy. That is Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement. And it is practical, it is not dream. You can become happy. Don't be disappointed. Don't be confused. Your life has value. You, in this life, you can realize your eternal life, eternal blissful life of knowledge. It is possible, it is not impossible.

So we are simply transmitting this message to the world that, "Your life is very valuable. Don't waste it just like cats and dogs. Try to utilize it fully." That is the statement in the Bhagavad-gītā. We have published Bhagavad-gītā As It Is. Try to read it.

In that Bhagavad-gītā in the Fourth Chapter it is said, janma karma me divyaṁ yo jānāti tattvataḥ (BG 4.9). If simply tries to understand what is Kṛṣṇa, what is His business, what is His life, where does He live, what does He do . . . janma karma. Janma means appearance and disappearance, karma means activities; divyam—transcendental. Janma karma me divyaṁ yo jānāti tattvataḥ.

One who knows the appearance and activities of Kṛṣṇa in fact, in truth—not by sentiment but by scientific study—then the result is tyaktvā dehaṁ punar janma naiti mām eti kaunteya (BG 4.9). Simply by understanding Kṛṣṇa, you'll no more have to come back to this miserable condition of material existence. This is fact. Even in your life, in this life, you'll understand—you'll be happy.

So our Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is no religious movement or any sectarian movement. This movement is to see everyone, every human being—not only human being, even the animals—everyone be happy. Sarve sukhino bhavantu. And the process is very simple.

Very simple—chant Hare Kṛṣṇa. That you have already seen. This chanting is not at all difficult. Anyone, even a child was sitting here, he was just trying to clap and understand. It is immediately appealing, because this vibration is from the platform of the soul.

Try to understand that we have got different platforms of our life. In the beginning we understand that this body, "I am this body." Therefore, so long the bodily concept of life is there, we are interested in sense gratification, because body means the senses.

And when we fail to achieve any gratification by indulging in the senses, then we become philosophers or thoughtful. That is the mental platform. Indriyāṇi parāṇy āhur indriyebhyaḥ paraṁ manaḥ (BG 3.42). Because these senses are centered round by . . . of the mind. Mind is practically the controller of the senses.

So when you fail to achieve real, I mean to say, pleasure from the senses, we go to the mental platform—poetry, philosophy, similar, songs. But you have to transcend even the mental platform. That is intellectual platform.
