Quotes Of The Day

Niranjana Swami
October 1997, Alma-Ata - S.B. 7.14.9 - Grhasthas should not over endeavor for economic development

This is a very important principle here, which should be understood and followed, that although brahmacaris, vanaprasthas, and sannyasis are not supposed to be engaged in the pursuit of economic development it also means that they are supposed to stop sense gratification. In other words, if anybody wants to have sense gratification, they have to pay for it. Nobody can get some sense gratification without paying some price for it.

Srila Prabhupada
Lecture on Bhagavad-gita 7.1, Bombay, January 13, 1973
