This Krsna consciousness movement is for very intelligent, high-class, fortunate persons. Because they are going to guide the destiny of the human society. Nana-sastra-vicaranaika-nipunau sad-dharma-samsthapakau lokanam hita-karinau. Their only endeavor is how people will be happy. This is their real mission. Just like Caitanya Mahaprabhu therefore asked to "Take this mission and go village to village, town to town, and spread My mission."

Lecture on SB 6.1.47 -- Detroit, June 13, 1976:

So, generally we can understand from the sastra that according to guna -- sattva-guna, rajo-guna, tamo-guna -- those who are in sattva-guna, they are going higher planetary system; rajo-guna, in the same platform; tamo-guna, going down. So the human endeavor should be how to increase the sattva-guna quality of the man. That is the duty of all guardians. State, king, government, everyone should. If you do not make such attempt to elevate your dependent towards the sattva-guna platform, simply lamenting, what will do good to you? "Our position is this, now it is uncontrollable, the things are going bad, there are problems." Yes, problem must be there. Because the aim of life should be known. They do not know. The modern civilization, they do not know what is the aim of life, how life is going on, eternally, how it is implicated, how to entangle. So many things are there, it is a great science.

So the Krsna consciousness movement is trying to establish this science. Our real mission is how the human society will be happy. That is the duty of all saintly persons. The, according to our parampara system... Just like the Gosvamis, Rupa Gosvami, Sanatana Gosvami. They were very exalted personalities, minister in government. Still, they resigned from the service and joined Caitanya Mahaprabhu's movement. That is the history. All the direct disciples of Caitanya Mahaprabhu, they were very big personalities. Just like Rupa, Sanatana. They were minister. Then Bhatta Raghunatha, Dasa Raghunatha. Raghunatha Dasa, he was coming, more than minister. His father and uncle were the biggest zamindar, landlord, in those times. And he was the only son of the father and the uncle. Huge estate, beautiful wife, everything -- he left and joined this movement, Caitanya Mahaprabhu's. Similarly, Gopal Bhatta Gosvami, he also coming from a very aristocratic brahmana family in South India. And Sri Jiva Gosvami, the nephew of Rupa Gosvami, in the learned circle, still, in Bengal, they say such a big scholar and philosophy, there was none, and nobody expects a similar philosopher and learned scholar in the future. He was such a big personality, Jiva Gosvami. Big, big Mayavadis, they were afraid of Jiva Gosvami's logic and argument to establish the Vaisnava philosophy.

So it is not... This Krsna consciousness movement is for very intelligent, high-class, fortunate persons. Because they are going to guide the destiny of the human society. Nana-sastra-vicaranaika-nipunau sad-dharma-samsthapakau lokanam hita-karinau. Their only endeavor is how people will be happy. This is their real mission. Just like Caitanya Mahaprabhu therefore asked to "Take this mission and go village to village, town to town, and spread My mission."

prthivite ache yata nagaradi-grama
sarvatra pracara haibe mora nama
(CB Antya-khanda 4.126)

So you young Americans, you have taken a very great mission, and the system we have introduced, to go in the vans, buses and village to village, town to town. And if you keep strictly on the principles and chant Hare Krsna maha-mantra, then your mission will be successful. There is no doubt about it.
