Story 31 Potter
1
00:00:00,302 --> 00:00:04,862
PRABHUPĀDA: Ah, the…
The story of the potter.
2
00:00:04,863 --> 00:00:07,019
The potter is planning.
3
00:00:07,020 --> 00:00:11,971
He has got few pots,
and he [is] planning,
4
00:00:11,972 --> 00:00:16,014
“Now I have got these
four pots, and I will sell.
5
00:00:16,015 --> 00:00:18,027
I’ll make some profit.
6
00:00:18,028 --> 00:00:20,888
Then there will be ten pots.
7
00:00:20,889 --> 00:00:23,795
Then I’ll sell ten pots;
I’ll make some profit.
8
00:00:23,796 --> 00:00:28,294
I’ll get twenty pots, and
then thirty pots; forty pots.
9
00:00:28,295 --> 00:00:31,752
In this way I shall
become millionaire.
10
00:00:31,753 --> 00:00:38,632
And at that time I shall marry, and I shall
control my wife in this way and that way.
11
00:00:38,633 --> 00:00:43,843
And if she is disobedient,
then I shall kick her like this.”
12
00:00:43,844 --> 00:00:51,995
So, when he kicked, he kicked
the pots and all the pots broke.
13
00:00:51,996 --> 00:00:55,668
Then his dream is gone; you see?
14
00:00:55,669 --> 00:00:58,932
Similarly, we are simply dreaming.
15
00:00:58,933 --> 00:01:02,181
With few pots we are
simply dreaming that,
16
00:01:02,182 --> 00:01:06,758
“These pots will be increased into so
many pots; so many pots; so many pots…”
17
00:01:06,759 --> 00:01:09,023
Then, finished.
18
00:01:09,024 --> 00:01:12,254
Don’t make
imagination; make plan.
19
00:01:12,255 --> 00:01:21,731
That is… The guru, the spiritual master and
the government should be careful that,
20
00:01:21,732 --> 00:01:25,847
“These rascals may not make plan.
21
00:01:25,848 --> 00:01:29,038
This rascal may not
make plan to be happy.”
22
00:01:29,039 --> 00:01:32,573
na yojayet karmasu karma-mūḍhān
[SB 5.5.15]
23
00:01:32,574 --> 00:01:36,438
This is karma-jagat: This world.
24
00:01:36,439 --> 00:01:37,990
This material world is that.
25
00:01:37,991 --> 00:01:43,469
They are already inclined,
so what is the use?
26
00:01:43,470 --> 00:01:47,696
loke vyayāyāmiṣa-madya-sevā nityāstu jantuḥ [?]
27
00:01:47,697 --> 00:01:51,356
Just like sex life.
28
00:01:51,357 --> 00:01:54,551
Sex life is natural.
29
00:01:54,552 --> 00:02:00,456
It does not require any university
education how to enjoy sex.
30
00:02:00,457 --> 00:02:03,516
They will enjoy it.
31
00:02:03,517 --> 00:02:10,868
“Nobody… Nobody is taught how to cry
or how to laugh or how to enjoy sex life.”
32
00:02:10,869 --> 00:02:13,154
There is a Bengali saying.
33
00:02:13,155 --> 00:02:14,427
That is natural.
34
00:02:14,428 --> 00:02:18,884
You don’t require any
education for this karma.
35
00:02:18,885 --> 00:02:24,038
Now they are making big, big plans
to educate people how to work hard.
36
00:02:24,039 --> 00:02:26,298
This is waste of time.
37
00:02:26,299 --> 00:02:29,486
Educational institution should be
38
00:02:29,487 --> 00:02:34,317
for teaching people how to
become Kṛṣṇa conscious,
39
00:02:34,318 --> 00:02:37,139
not to become this or that.
40
00:02:37,140 --> 00:02:45,305
That is a waste of time.
41
00:02:45,306 --> 00:02:45,307
