We were just talking that there are so many unemployment. Our Karandhara

prabhu was... No. Who was talking? Syamasundara. Syamasundara said that the

computer... What is called, computer? It can do thousands of men's business.

So they have discovered this machine. That means thousands of men will be

unemployed. That is actually happening in your country due to so many

machines. Now, take for example, formerly... You have seen the picture,

Krsna, Vrndavana picture, Krsna's father transferring Krsna. They were going

on bullock carts, no motorcar. You have seen the picture. So formerly,

transport was bullock carts. The cows and the bulls, the bulls were employed

for agricultural purpose, for drawing the carts. So there was no necessity

of motorcar. Now you have got motor, motor-tractor. You don't want the

bullocks. Therefore kill them. How you can utilize them? Therefore you must

have slaughterhouse to kill them. And as soon as you kill them, then you

have to eat them. So this is the, I mean to say, entanglement. If you kill,

then you become responsible for being killed. The subtle laws...

 

Therefore, without knowing our ultimate goal of life is Visnu, na te viduh

svartha-gatim hi visnum... [sB 7.5.31]. That is our interest. The human form

of life is offered by nature after so much evolutionary process. Just to

understand Visnu, God, this is the only business. But instead of attending

our real business, we are trying to be happy in other ways. Then you can say

that "If we are engaged in real business, then how the economic question

will be solved? We have to work." That's all right, you work. But work

simple. Why you have invented so much botheration? Work is there. If you

have cows and if you have got land, then you till the land, get grains, and

there is milk, there is fruit, there is flower. Anywhere, you can live

peacefully. Whole economic question is solved. And because we have

forgotten, we have missed the real point, that our life is meant for

God-realization. We are simply increasing botheration. Punah punas carvita.

Adanta-gobhir visatam tamisram. Andha yathandhair upaniyamanah. The leaders

are blind; we are also blind. So they are advising that "If you want to

solve your economic problem, why you are going to church? Why you are going

to temple? Come here, increase business, industry. Take loan and start

business." That's all. This is going on. But actually, the more we are

trying to mislead this people... Because they are thinking it is all right.

They are... That the social condition is becoming more and more grave.

That's a fact. We are trying to solve one problem, but many other problems

are coming because we do not know what is the ultimate goal of life. Because

we are missing the real point.
