truth
So
sometimes people give me very much credit that I have done wonderful
throughout the whole world. But I do not know that I am wonderful man.
But I know one thing, that I am speaking what Kṛṣṇa has spoken. That's
all. I am not making any addition, alteration. Therefore I am presenting
Bhagavad-gītā as it is. This credit I can take, that I don't making any
nonsense addition or alteration. And I see practically it has become
successful.
From
history we can see that there were many powerful empires on the surface
of the globe that were constructed with great pain and great
perseverance, but in due course of time they have all been destroyed.
Still the foolish materialists cannot understand that they are simply
wasting time in producing material necessities, which are destined to be
vanquished in due course of time.
The
definition of the mode of ignorance is stated in the Vedic literature:
under the spell of ignorance, one cannot understand the thing as it is.
For example, everyone can see that his grandfather has died, and
therefore he will also die; man is mortal. The children that he
conceives will also die. So death is sure. Still, people are madly
accumulating money and working very hard all day and night, not caring
for the eternal spirit. This is madness.
