🎙️ Full Lecture Transcript: "Prabhupāda: We are not going to construct. Is that escaping, or it is intelligence, that "You work hard and give it to me. We enjoy"? This is intelligence; that is not escaping. That is going on. The capitalists, they are engaging these rascals, asses, in the factory, and he's enjoying life. That is intelligence. That is not escaping.

You know the story of the stag and the jackal? (chuckles) ... So that is intelligence, that "Let this rascal work hard and make a nice park for us, and we shall take advantage of it." This is intelligence. And it is called ajāgara-vṛtti. Ajāgara-vṛtti. Ajāgara means . . . the big snake is called ajāgara. So this mouse, they make hole and want to live there. And they comfortably living. In the meantime, the ajāgara comes. He eats that mouse and lives comfortably. So our is ajāgara vṛtti. You work for the hole to live comfortably, but we take possession of the house and live comfortably.

(break) . . . Los Angeles, the storekeepers, they ask our men that "You do not work. You live so comfortably. And working so hard, we cannot live so comfortably." And as soon as we ask that "You also come and join," they will not... They are envious. Therefore they say escaping...

Satsvarūpa: The psychologist says that the real responsibility is to enjoy sex life...

Prabhupāda: But that hog also enjoys. Then where is the difference between you and hog? The hog enjoys unrestrictedly... You enjoy life and become a hog, and that is waiting for you, next life."

🧠 About This Video: In this striking conversation from a Morning Walk in Denver (1975), Śrīla Prabhupāda challenges the modern definition of "intelligence" and the glory of hard labor. He introduces the concept of Ajāgara-vṛtti (the livelihood of the python), explaining that real intelligence isn't working like an ass for sense gratification, but engaging the world's resources for a higher spiritual purpose.

Prabhupāda dismantles the envy of the materialists who claim devotees are "escaping" reality. He clarifies that devotees are indeed escaping—they are escaping the "horrible condition" of sinful life to embrace the higher responsibility of human life: self-realization. If we only work for eating, sleeping, and mating, he warns, we are no different than the hogs.
