taking, "call priest"

Prabhupada: Anasritaḥ karma-phalam karyam karma karoti yaḥ, sa sannyasi [Bg 6.1]. Anasritaḥ kar... Everyone is expecting some good result for his sense gratification. That is asritaḥ karma-phalam. He has taken the shelter of good result. But one who does not take shelter of the result of activities... It is my duty. Karyam. Karyam means "It is my duty. Doesn't matter what is the result. I must do it sincerely to my best capacity. Then I don't care for the result. Result is in Krsna's hand." Karyam: "It is my duty. My Guru Maharaja said it, so it is my duty. It doesn't matter whether it is successful or not successful. That depends on Krsna." In this way, anyone, if he works, then he is a sannyasi. Not the dress, but the attitude of working. Yes, that is sannyasa. Karyam: "It is my duty." Sa sannyasi ca yogi ca. He is yogi, first-class yogi. Just like Arjuna. Arjuna, officially, he did not take sannyasa. He was a grhastha, soldier. But when he took it very seriously, karyam-"Krsna wants this fight. Never mind I have to kill my relatives. I must do it"-that is sannyasi. First of all he argued with Krsna that "This kind of fighting is not good, family killing," and so on, so on, so on. He argued. But after hearing Bhagavad-gita, when he understood that "It is my duty. Krsna wants me to do it." Karyam. So in spite of his becoming a householder, a soldier, he's a sannyasi. He took it-karyam. Karyam means "It is my duty." That is real sannyasi. "Krsna wants that this Krsna consciousness movement must be spread. So this is my karyam. This is my duty. And the direction is my spiritual master. So I must do it." This is sannyasi. This is sannyasi, sannyasa mentality. But there is formality. That should... That may be accepted.    (More...)
