The Re-enchantment of Everyday Life via Bhakti Yoga

We Can Do It!

S.B. 4.6.44 purport:

"The tendency in this age of Kali to make a classless society and not observe the principles of varṇa and āśrama is a manifestation of an impossible dream. Destruction of the social and spiritual orders will not bring fulfillment of the idea of a classless society. One should strictly observe the principles of varṇa and āśrama for the satisfaction of the creator."

"What is the big plan behind these regulative principles? The big plan is: here is the attraction, pumsah sriya mithuni-bhavam - to cut down this attraction between male and female. This is the big plan. Otherwise, there is no need of the varnasrama." -Srila Prabhupada lecture, SB 5.5.8, Vrndavana, 10/30/76
