Prabhupada 0341 - One Who is Intelligent, He will Take this Process
Lecture on BG 9.1 -- Melbourne, June 29, 1974
Prabhupada: Hm?
Madhudviṣa: He asked what is the knowledge that Kṛṣṇa revealed to Arjuna?
Prabhupada: Yes. Kṛṣṇa asked that "You rascal, surrender unto Me." (devotees cheer and applaud) You are all rascals; you surrender to Kṛṣṇa. Then your life will be successful. This is the sum and substance of Kṛṣṇa's instruction.
- sarva-dharmān parityajya
- mām ekaṁśaraṇaṁ vraja
- (BG 18.66)
Kṛṣṇa is not asking only Arjuna. He is asking all us, all rascals, that, “You are manufacturing so many things for becoming happy. You’ll never be happy, rest assured. But surrender to Me, and I will make you happy.” This is Kṛṣṇa consciousness, that's all. One line. So the one who is intelligent, he will take this process, that "I have tried my best to become happy, but everything is failure. Now let me surrender to Kṛṣṇa." That's all.
