We are also trying to be dog, but not of another dog, but real master. That is our philosophy. What is the use of becoming a dog of another dog? That is not proper. Here the material world is that, "I am dog, I have got a master, and the master has got another master. He has got another master, he has got another master." Nobody can say that, "I am absolute." Nobody can say. That is not possible. You must have a master. Therefore everyone is a dog.

Why don't you answer them, "Yes, you become a dog, but you become a dog of a good master." What is the use of becoming dog of another dog? Then what profit will be there? Is it not? We are . . . actually, every one of us is dog. And we are trying to satisfy so many masters. The masters are our senses. We are already dog, everyone, because everyone is servant of the senses: kāma, krodha, lobha, moha, mātsarya. So everyone is dog. Now he has to remain a dog, but by becoming dog of these senses, he is not happy. Find out a good master and become a dog, you become happy. This is our philosophy. And the best master is Kṛṣṇa.

We are also trying to be dog, but not of another dog, but real master. That is our philosophy. What is the use of becoming a dog of another dog? That is not proper. Here the material world is that, "I am dog, I have got a master, and the master has got another master. He has got another master, he has got another master." Nobody can say that, "I am absolute." Nobody can say. That is not possible. You must have a master. Therefore everyone is a dog.

So why don't you find out the absolute master, the biggest master? And that is God. "God is great." Capture Him, master. Then you will be happy. That is intelligence. When one comes to his senses, that "I have served so many masters. Neither the master has become happy, neither I have become happy . . ." That is frustration. Everyone. The master is not happy. You serve any master.

Ask him, "Are you satisfied?" And, "What you have done, that I will be satisfied? You have to do so many things." So he is not satisfied and you are not satisfied. Then to become dog of this ordinary master will never give us satisfaction. Always frustration. Just become the dog of the supreme master. You will be happy. Supreme master is Caitanya Mahāprabhu. Mahāprabhu. Prabhu means master. That Caitanya Mahāprabhu's name, Mahāprabhu, "the supreme master."

Viṣṇujana: He is easily pleased. He is easily pleased.
