Live righteously under Krishna's laws, protect women with devotion, and accept a spiritual master for liberation.Listen — Srila Prabhupada Uvaca
Wedding of Prabhāvatī and Hari-nāma — July 9, 1971, Los Angeles 710709WE-LOS ANGELES [11:40 Minutes] Wedding_710709WE-LOS ANGELES [some distortion] Prabhupāda: So you are now married, and you happily go on with Kṛṣṇa consciousness and have Kṛṣṇa conscious children. If you cannot produce Kṛṣṇa conscious children, then don't indulge in sex life; don't bring in cats and dogs. [laughter] All Kṛṣṇa conscious. And if you can bring Kṛṣṇa conscious children, you produce one hundred children. [break] ...Vedic śāstra, the Vedic, I mean, scripture, we find that Kṛṣṇa is supporting all living entities: eko yo bahūnāṁ vidadhāti kāmān [Kaṭha Upaniṣad 2.2.13].
What is God and what is living entities? That difference is there in the Vedas: nityo nityānām cetanaś cetanānām. He is the chief amongst the living entities. There are eka. He is the one, single, and we are many millions and trillions, unlimited—there is no counting how many living entities are there.
But He is maintaining everyone, eko yo bahūnāṁ vidadhāti kāmān. So there is no question of population..., increase of population. This is a nonsense theory. Kṛṣṇa can feed any number of population, but when they are rascals there is trouble. [break] You can understand it very easily.
Just like if you are a nice citizen, so there is no restriction of your activities. But as soon as you become criminal, oh, immediately there is trouble. So at the present moment we are all criminals; therefore there is so much crisis in the world. But if we live simple life, there is no crisis.
If we abide by the laws of God, there is no question of poverty or distress or famine or disease—nothing. There is nothing. So this Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is aiming to that perfectional stage of human society, that everyone will live happily during this life, and after this body he goes directly to Kṛṣṇa, That's all. Devotees: Hare Kṛṣṇa! Prabhupāda: This is our program. So don't miss this opportunity. Now next, Hari-nāma.
No guardian present? Devotee: No. Prabhupāda: So, all right. So any. You can. You can… Tamāla Kṛṣṇa: Hari-nāma, this is my Godsister Prabhāvatī, and I give her to you in charity because she is my sister, and I ask you that you must take very good care of her and always protect her.
Do you accept her in charity? Hari-nāma: I accept Prabhāvatī as my wife, and I will protect her... Prabhupāda: Yes. That is the… Hari-nāma: ...help her in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Prabhupāda: The whole idea is that woman require protection. They are very innocent, weaker sex. They should not be given freedom.
