Prabhupāda: Prakṛteḥ kriyamāṇāni (BG 3.27). They are, under the laws of nature, one body is suffering, one body is enjoying. You cannot rectify it.
Therefore those who are engaged in philanthropic work, "Oh, this man is suffering. I shall give him some food. I shall give him some shelter. I shall take to hospital," you can do so, for from your part it is pious activities. But you cannot give relief him. That is not possible.
Your sympathy for the suffering humanity is nice, because if you think that, "So many people are suffering from disease. Let me open a hospital, and let me give free treatment," from your part it is all right. You are doing some pious activity. You will enjoy the fruit of your piety. But the person to whom you want to give relief, he will not be relieved. He will suffer. Therefore it is useless.
The only relief work is if you can induce one man to Kṛṣṇa consciousness. That is the only relief work. Otherwise all futile. You cannot check a man's suffering by your hospitalizing. No, that is not possible. That is from your part it is good—try to understand—but you cannot give relief.
So many hospitals are open all over the world. The patients are increasing, that's all. Patients are increasing everywhere. How many hospitals you have got in this country? In America there are very, very nice, nice, big, big hospitals. What is that hospital, mental, in New York?
Devotee: Bellevue.
Prabhupāda: Bellevue. For treating mental disorder . . . (indistinct) . . . the mental disorder persons are increasing only. Crazy fellow. You see? Is it not? You have to simply increase the bedding, that's all. Beds are increasing, not the patients are decreasing. Beds are increasing.
