This world is moving under three modes: the modes of goodness, the modes of passion and the modes of ignorance. So generally, people are influenced by the modes of passion and modes of ignorance. Very few people are on the modes of goodness. But this process of hearing about God will gradually place one on the platform of the modes of goodness. Sthitaṁ sattve prasīdati (SB 1.2.19).
And the symptoms, as soon as he's placed on the modes of goodness, the symptom will be that he'll feel satisfied. He'll feel satisfied. Prasīdati. In this way, when he is satisfied, when he is on the platform of goodness, or the platform of satisfaction . . . that is wanted. Prasanna-manaso. Evaṁ prasanna-manaso (SB 1.2.20).
How it is attained? Simply by hearing, the process. Process is simply hearing, submissively hearing. Then he comes to the platform of goodness. And at that time, the passion and ignorance is completely moved out. And then he can understand what is the science of God, what is God, what is relationship.
So we want to give chance to all to raise oneself on that platform of goodness. And on the platform of goodness, there is no chance of indulging in passion and ignorance. Therefore although it is not my duty—because I am a sannyāsī . . . I have nothing to do with social activity—still, because in this country, mostly I see the boys and girls are not married, I have introduced this marriage system in our society, and the result is very good.
You'll be very pleased to know that in London I have sent six boys and girls who were married by me in my presence. Formerly, they were not married. You know as the other boys and girls lived, they were also living in that way. But the result has been very excellent. They are preaching there Kṛṣṇa consciousness.
