NOT THIS MOTORCAR CIVILIZATION

“Everywhere I go and say, “How these rascals…?” So much land is lying, and these rascals are not developing. And they are making… What is that? Coal stone. Coal.

They are interested with these bricks and stones, not green vegetables.

Such a rascal government. Give them facility. We know how to do it.

Annād bhavanti bhūtāni parjanyād anna-sambhavaḥ, yajñād bhavati parjanyaḥ [Bg. 3.14].

Let them engage in kīrtana.
There will be more water for gardening, and it will be moist, and then produce fodder for the animals and food for you.

And animal gives you milk.
That is Vṛndāvana life.

And they are absorbed in this so-called opulence. Kṛṣṇa has taken birth. They are bringing so many nice, pleasant foodstuff, coming very well-dressed and ornamented.

These are descriptions. In the morning we were reading.
How they were happy, the inhabitants of Vṛndāvana with Kṛṣṇa and living and cows.
That I want to introduce.

At any cost do it and…

Don’t bother about big, big buildings. It is not required.
Useless waste of time.
Produce. Make the whole field green. See that.

Then whole economic question solved. Then you eat sumptuous. Eat sumptuously. The animal is happy. The animal even does not give milk; let them eat and pass stool and urine. That is welcome.
After all, eating, they will pass stool.

So that is beneficial, not that simply milk is beneficial.
Even the stool is beneficial.
Therefore, I am asking so much here and…, “Farm, farm, farm, farm.”

That is not my program—Kṛṣṇa’s program.
Annād bhavanti bhūtāni [Bg. 3.14].
Produce greenness everywhere, everywhere. Vṛndāvana.

It is not this motorcar civilization.”

(Srila Prabhupada, 27th May, 1977, Vrindavana)
