Bhagavad-gita As It Is Lectures

Perhaps most of you know that whenever there is unwanted population these three things will naturally, by nature's course, will appear—famine, pestilence and war—and the population will be finished. So there was some unwanted population at that time also for which Kṛṣṇa arranged the war, battlefield of war.

Now, Kṛṣṇa says that, "If I do not place the ideal life, then the population will be saṅkara." Saṅkara means unwanted; creating disturbances always. There will be no peace in the world. For actually we are feeling that there is no peace in the world. Why? Because the population has become unwanted. And by increasing such population the natural sequence will be . . . there must be. There will be some disease, there will be some famine or there will be some war when the population will be vanquished. That is the law of nature.

That is accepted in economics also, Malthusian theory. Perhaps most of you know that whenever there is unwanted population these three things will naturally, by nature's course, will appear—famine, pestilence and war—and the population will be finished. So there was some unwanted population at that time also for which Kṛṣṇa arranged the war, battlefield of war. Battlefield of war. So we have to follow. If we want very good population, very good generation, then we have to follow the principles of Bhagavad-gītā. The principles of Bhagavad-gītā is ultimately described, as we will find in the last stage:

sarva-dharmān parityajya
mām ekaṁ śaraṇaṁ vraja
ahaṁ tvāṁ sarva-pāpebhyo
mokṣayiṣyāmi mā śucaḥ
(BG 18.66)

That is the real religion. Now, in the Fourth Chapter you will find that Lord says that "I come down in this, as incarnation." Yadā yadā hi dharmasya glānir bhavati bhārata (BG 4.7); "I come down whenever there is some flaw in the religious principles." Yadā yadā hi dharmasya glānir bhavati bhārata, abhyutthānam adharmasya. The flaw in the religious principle means advancement of irreligiosity.
