	So Kṛṣṇa is giving everyone facility. Whatever he wants, ''ye yathā māṁ prapadyante'' ([[BG 4.11 (1972)\|BG 4.11]]), but ''mad-yājino 'pi yānti mām'': "But if you desire, you can come to Me, back to home, back to . . ." That facility is also there. So when Kṛṣṇa comes personally or Caitanya Mahāprabhu comes, He advises that "Come back to home. Why you are fallen?"		So Kṛṣṇa is giving everyone facility.

	To remain conditioned under the laws of nature, that is not good life. That is not good, either you become a Brahmā or Lord Indra or Chandra or a big minister, big president, just . . . (indistinct) . . . ~~That~~ is Kṛṣṇa's advice, Caitanya Mahāprabhu's: finish this business. ''Sarva-guhyatamaṁ''. This is the most confidential knowledge. Finish this business of material existence, either as Brahmā or . . . ~~That~~ is the verdict of all Vedic ''śāstras''. They do not know what is there, the conditioned souls; they do not know what is real self-interest. Everyone will say that "I have got some self-interest." That's very good. Everyone should be self-interested. One should be interested in his own self and the goal of life. That is very intelligent. But they do not know what is self, that is the problem. ''Na te viduḥ svārtha-gatiṁ'' ([[SB 7.5.31\|SB 7.5.31]]). ''Svārtha-gatiṁ'', real life, is to go back to Visnu, ''tad viṣṇoḥ paramaṁ padaṁ sadā paśyanti sūrayo'' (''Ṛg~~'' ''~~Veda'' 1.2.22.20). Those who are ''sūrayaḥ''—not ''asūrayaḥ—sūrayaḥ'', learned demigods, learned persons, they are aiming how to go back to home, back to Godhead. That is ''param padaṁ,'' ''tad viṣṇoḥ paramaṁ padaṁ sadā''. This is Vedic ''mantra''. They're trying to be happy by material adjustments, ''durāśayā ye bahir-artha-māninaḥ'' ([[SB 7.5.31\|SB 7.5.31]]). ''Bahir-artha'', external. This material world means creation of the external energy. So they have taken it, if here he can become a big man, or big demigod, that is our self-interest. But that is not . . . (indistinct) . . . ~~That~~ is not self-interest. Real self-interest is to go back to home, go back to Godhead.		To remain conditioned under the laws of nature, that is not good life.

	So Caitanya Mahāprabhu also directly teaches the same principle, and Kṛṣṇa also teaches the same principle because They are one. But Caitanya Mahāprabhu is more kind, merciful than Kṛṣṇa. Kṛṣṇa is teaching the same principle, but as the Supreme Personality of Godhead He commands, "Do this, rascal!" ''Sarva-dharmān parityajya mām ekam'' ([[BG 18.66 (1972)\|BG 18.66]]). That is His position. But the rascals are so rascals they could not understand Kṛṣṇa; they began to comment upon Kṛṣṇa in different way. They are so rascal that even very learned scholars that . . . like . . . mundane scholars—they're not scholars, but so-called scholars. They are full of ignorance but proud of their material knowledge. ''Āḍhya-māninā'' ([[SB 8.21.34\|SB 8.21.34]]), ''vimukta-māninaḥ'', this word is used. ''Ye 'nye 'ravindākṣa vimukta-māninaḥ'' ([[SB 10.2.32\|SB 10.2.32]]). These rascals, they are thinking only that have become very learned scholars, and sometimes they think, "We are now liberated," they have become Nārāyaṇa, and somebody is designating ''daridra-nārāyaṇa'', so on, so on. That means actually they are not very learned, but ''vimukta-māninaḥ'', they are thinking like that.

	This Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement means ''vairāgya-vidyā'', to become detestful to this material world. Because we are not becoming detestful. The ''karmīs'', they are more and more becoming entangled: "Give me this, give me that, give me that"; ultimately, "Give me the post of Brahmā," "Give me the post of Indra." So their business is simply "give me." So they are ''karmīs''. And ''jñānīs'', when they are disgusted with this asking . . . ~~They~~ are also asking, but they are asking in a finer way, that "We shall become one with Viṣṇu. Why shall I ask?" He's asking. He's asking, "Make me one," but in a subtle way. He's also beggar. And ''yogīs'', they're also asking, "Give me this mystic power. I shall manufacture gold and delude this poor conditioned soul," and advertise, "I have become God." These are third-class ''yogīs''. First-class ''yogīs'', they do not want. They, although get this power, like this, they do not utilize it; they simply, ''dhyāna avasthita-tad-gatena manasā paśyanti yaṁ yoginaḥ'' ([[SB 12.13.1\|SB 12.13.1]]). That is their . . .

	So unless one is situated in pure devotional stage, the perfection will be not be there. ''Mām upetya kaunteya duḥkhālayam aśāśvatam'' ([[BG 8.15 (1972)\|BG 8.15]]). Even if he becomes a very big ''yogī'', he has to undergo suffering, ''duḥkhālayam aśāśvatam''. This world is like that. For practicing this ''haṭha''-''yoga'', it requires much labor. It is not so easy. They are thinking that they have got this power, ''yogī'', but it is exactly like if you want to become high-court judge, if you want to become prime minister—it is not so easy. You have to work very hard. Nobody gets all these posts so easily like . . . (indistinct) . . . No. One has to work very hard. ''Duḥkhālayam'', you have to undergo. You want some very exalted post in this material, either as ''yogī'', or ''karmī'' or ''jñānī'', it requires the hard labor. But a devotee, because he does not want anything like the ''karmī, jñānī'' and ''yogī'', for them, ''viśvaṁ pūrṇaṁ sukhāyate''. The whole material world is happy. ''Viśvaṁ pūrṇaṁ sukhāyate''.

	So this is possible by Caitanya Mahāprabhu's mercy. It is possible. Therefore Prabodhānanda Sarasvatī has given us this instruction, that ''yat kāruṇya katākṣa vaibhavavātaṁ'' (''Caitanya-candrāmṛta'' 5). It is possible to become perfectly cent percent happy by the mercy of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu. Not even full mercy.
