why started

Imported quote 16776

Now at the modern age, in every country all over the world, there is unemployment. Why unemployment? Because people do not know how to divide the population according to guna and karma. One is qualified as a sūdra, and he is engaged in the business of a ksatriya. There is problem. The people are educated as sūdras, and when they are called for recruiting for the armies, they are afraid. The problem is very acute in America. Nobody wants to join military department. Why they will join? They have been trained up as sūdra, and why they will be like the business of ksatriya? That is the problem. Everyone wants to avoid. Actually, the hippie movement is started on account of this..., what is this? (More...)

Prabhupada: Draft, yes. Young men, they want to avoid it, and they are forced. Therefore they take the part of madman or lunatic, in this way. This is going on, to avoid it. So that is the problem. People should be trained up according to quality and work. There must be institution to train first-class men. There are first-class men, intellectuals. They should be trained up as brahmanas. That is the system. Second-class men, they should be trained up as ksatriyas. Third-class men, they should be trained up as vaisyas. And fourth-class men, means below third class, they should be engaged as sūdras, worker, and below them, canḍala. That I have already explained. So nobody should be left alone. Everyone should be engaged. That is Krsna consciousness. Everyone should be engaged in Krsna consciousness business. Then there will be no unemployment. (More...)
