quotes about shudras

I know it is difficult. This is the main point of what I was trying to say.

When one finds the reference to Prabhupada when according to ones actions

one is shudra one would try to reform. When ones service is called 'shudras

business' it hurts. <<We are not going to open mills and factories and...

No. We are not going to do that. That is sudra business. The real business

is that you produce enough food grains, as much as possible, and you eat and

distribute. That's all. This is business.>> Of course SP Never said to any

particualr of his disciples that he is a shudra. He whould say: <<He's not a

shudra. ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT>>:

 

Vrindaban, March 14, 1974

 

Prabhupada: Yes. This preaching is also required, to make the groundwork.

Because nobody's taking care... So even up to the point to become a thief,

devotees took it. Yes. And the gopis, even up to the point of becoming

prostitute--for Krsna. SO FOR KRSNA'S SAKE WE HAVE TO ACCEPT ANY NONSENSE

TYPE OF BUSINESS. OR ON THE HIGHEST GRADE. ANYTHING. BUT FOR KRSNA WE HAVE

TO DO THAT.

 

Hrdayananda: So, Prabhupada, in our temples, we have so many devotees.

Should the devotees...?

 

Prabhupada: They should be engaged.

 

Hrdayananda: Should they be trained in a particular (varna)...?

 

Prabhupada: Yes. Those who are not able to preach or to do other things,

they must go to the plough department, agriculture.

 

Hrdayananda: Those who cannot preach.

 

Prabhupada: Yes. Those who are less educated, not very much expert in

preaching, they must be acting as ksatriya or vaisya, or as sudra.

 

Hrdayananda: And sometimes...

 

Prabhupada: NOT HE'S SUDRA. ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT. BUT HE HAS TO ACT to

fulfill the, fill up the gap. Proxy.

What has stiked me is that Prabhupada uses word education. "Those who are

less educated."
