Lecture on SB 1.5.11 -- New Vrindaban, June 10, 1969:

Devotees, they have finished their searching. They have found out the real truth: īśvaraḥ paramaḥ kṛṣṇaḥ (Bs. 5.1), the Supreme. So it is a question of degrees of spiritual understanding. So there are three million serious sādhus in India. None of them ever attended such Mahatma Gandhi's meeting, neither they invited Mahatma Gandhi. No. They never; never recognized, recognized. Because what they have got to do with these political affairs? Just like . . . they know, "This is the business of the crows." The crows will take interest in such meeting.

Punaḥ punaś carvita-carvaṇānām (SB 7.5.30). What these politicians will do? They'll simply make plan. That's all. Hitler will make one plan, Mussolini will make one plan, Churchill will make another plan. Your Roosevelt will make another plan, Gandhi will make another . . . simply plan-making business, they will never be able to bring any peace and prosperity in the world. That is not possible. Because it is under the grip of māyā. They do not know. The peace and prosperity means surrender to Kṛṣṇa. Then you become out of the clutches of māyā. That secret they do not know. They're simply making plans. That's all.

So plan-making will always be frustrated. So simply agitation, it has no meaning. Therefore those who are transcendentalists, they know, this is crows' meeting. Sometimes—you have not seen—crows' meeting: kaw-kaw-kaw-kaw-kaw-kaw-kaw. They are passing resolution. You see? (laughter) You have seen crows' meeting?

Kīrtanānanda: Yes.

Prabhupāda: They have also meeting, crow's meeting. If you kill one cow, you will see, thousands of cow . . . crows, thousands of crows will come and hold their meeting, "Oh, one crow is dead by the human being. We shall . . ." And if the man is detected, "This man has killed," these crows will, I mean to say, hurt the head of that man. They'll come in flocks. Yes. I have seen in India. Yes. They sometimes attack. So they have got also their own defensive measure. The crows' meeting.

So they are not interested in all these political affairs or so-called social affairs and resolution, because they know this is not the method of becoming peaceful or prosperous. This is not the method. Without . . . hariṁ vinā na mṛtiṁ taranti. Without God consciousness, nobody can be happy. Therefore if we write something, if a devotee writes something about Kṛṣṇa consciousness, God consciousness . . .

Here Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam says that tad-vāg-visargo janatāgha-viplavaḥ. Such kind of creative energy which is trying to put something for understanding of Kṛṣṇa consciousness, janatāgha-viplavaḥ, that brings a revolution to the people for killing their effect of sinful activities. Janata agha. Janata means people in general, and agha, agha means sins. And that will . . . that can be . . . by such literature, spreading such literature, Kṛṣṇa consciousness literature, there will be a revolution in the sinful activities of the people in general. Janatāgha-viplavaḥ.

(commentary) Vināpi pada-cāturyaṁ bhagavad-yaśaḥ-pradhānāṁ vacaḥ pavitram ity aha tad vāg pavitra iti. It is so pure. What is called? Disinfectant. The whole world is infected with the māyā's influence, and this Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement, Hare Kṛṣṇa mantra, is disinfectant. It is sure. Disinfectant. Tad-vāg-visargo janatāgha-viplavaḥ. (commentary) Bhagavad-yaśaḥ-pradhānāṁ vacaḥ pavitram ity aha tad vāg iti, tad vāg-visarga sa cāsau vāg-visargo vacaḥ prayogaḥ. Janānāṁ samuho janatā, tasya aghaṁ viplavati naśayati. Viplava means it kills. Because disinfectant.

For example we can give, now, how this Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is disinfectant, that those who have seriously taken to it, they immediately stop the sinful infections, the four principles, regulative principles: illicit sex life, intoxication, gambling and meat-eating? How disinfectant it is. These four principles increases sinful activities. All other sinful activities will come, one after another, one after another.

Stealing, then cheating, then . . . so many other things will come if we follow these four principles. And if we stop these four principles, then the switch is off of committing further sinful activities. You must know that. It is . . . and how it can be maintained? By this disinfectant method, chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa. Otherwise, it will not, simply by theoretical knowledge, will not do.
