Lectures from a Disciple, Vol. 2, Glories of the Holy Name
The ninth offense is to instruct the intimate glories of the holy name to the faithless. It is also an offense to initiate faithless persons into the chanting. But to present the Lord's holy name to others in order to give them the opportunity to hear it and be purified is not offensive to the holy name.
Srila Prabhupada
Morning Walk, Johannesburg, October 16, 1975
Take everyone is rascal, then train them. That is wanted. Take everyone as rascal. There is no question that "Here is intelligent man, here is rascal, here is the..." No. First of all take them all rascals, and then train them. That is wanted. That is wanted now. At the present moment the whole world is full of rascals. Now, if they take to Krsna consciousness, select amongst them. Just like I am training. You are brahmana by training. So one who is prepared to be trained as brahmana, classify him in the brahmana. One is trained up as ksatriya, classify him. In this way, catur-varnyam maya srstam... [Bg 4.13]. Pick out. And rest, who is neither brahmana nor ksatriya nor vaisya, then he is sudra. That's all. Very easy thing. If you cannot be trained up as engineer, then you remain as a common man. There is no force. This is the way of organizing society. There is no force. Sudra is also required.
