Don't waste time for bodily comforts.

Prabhupada: No luxuries. Live very simple life and you save time for
chanting Hare Krsna.
Hamsaduta: Yes, Prabhupada.
Prabhupada: That is my desire. Don't waste time for bodily comforts.You have got this body. You have to eat something. You have to cover
yourself. So produce your own food and produce your own cloth. Don't
waste time for luxury, and chant Hare Krsna. This is success of life
.
In this way organize as far as possible, either in Ceylon or in
Czechoslovakia, wherever... Save time. Chant Hare Krsna. Don't be
allured by the machine civilization.
Hamsaduta: Yes, Prabhupada.
Prabhupada: This is soul-killing civilization, this kind way of life,
especially European countries
. Anywhere you can inhabit it. It is not
very difficult. A cottage; you can produce your own food anywhere. Am
I right?
Hamsaduta: Yes, Prabhupada. We will do it.
Prabhupada: And money, spend for Krsna--for Krsna's palace, for
Krsna's temple, for Krsna's worship, gorgeous, as gorgeously as... Not
for false... This is the human civilization. And to organize this,
varnasrama will help you to divide the society--brahmana, ksatriya,
vaisya--as there is division in the body. That will help. Don't waste
human form of body for sense gratification. I wanted to introduce
this. Now I have given you ideas. You can do it. You are all
intelligent. For Caitanya Mahaprabhu's para-upakara... So you do good
to others. Not exploit others. Any human being who has been bestowed
by this body has the capacity to chant Hare Krsna. Give them chance
and make situation favorable. Is that clear?
Hamsaduta: Yes, it's clear, Prabhupada. You have made everything very
clear.
