"This verse describes two people—one who gives charity and one who begs for it. A beggar should not ask charity from a person who is in difficulty. Similarly, one who is able to give charity should not deny a beggar. These are the moral instructions of the <i>śāstra.</i> Cāṇakya Paṇḍita says, <i>san-nimitte varaṁ tyāgo vināśe niyate sati:</i> everything within this material world will be destroyed, and therefore one should use everything for good purposes. If one is advanced in knowledge, he must always be prepared to sacrifice anything for a better cause. At the present moment the entire world is in a dangerous position under the spell of a godless civilization. The Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement needs many exalted, learned persons who will sacrifice their lives to revive God consciousness throughout the world. We therefore invite all men and women advanced in knowledge to join the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement and sacrifice their lives for the great cause of reviving the God consciousness of human society."

"In this regard, a very exalted example was set by Lord Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu and the six Gosvāmīs of Vṛndāvana. Concerning Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu it is said in <i>Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam</i> (11.5.34):",
"<i>tyaktvā sudustyaja-surepsita-rājya-lakṣmīṁ<br/> dharmiṣṭha ārya-vacasā yad agād araṇyam<br/> māyā-mṛgaṁ dayitayepsitam anvadhāvad<br/> vande mahā-puruṣa te caraṇāravindam</i>",
"\"We offer our respectful obeisances unto the lotus feet of the Lord, upon whom one should always meditate. He left His householder life, leaving aside His eternal consort, whom even the denizens of heaven adore. He went into the forest to deliver the fallen souls, who are put into illusion by material energy.\" To accept <i>sannyāsa</i> means to commit civil suicide, but <i>sannyāsa</i> is compulsory, at least for every <i>brāhmaṇa,</i> every first-class human being. Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu had a very young and beautiful wife and a very affectionate mother. Indeed, the affectionate dealings of His family members were so pleasing that even the demigods could not expect such happiness at home. Nevertheless, for the deliverance of all the fallen souls of the world, Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu took <i>sannyāsa</i> and left home when He was only twenty-four years old. He lived a very strict life as a <i>sannyāsī,</i> refusing all bodily comforts. Similarly, His disciples the six Gosvāmīs were ministers who held exalted positions in society, but they also left everything to join the movement of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu. Śrīnivāsa Ācārya says:",
"<i>tyaktvā tūrṇam aśeṣa-maṇḍala-pati-śreṇīṁ sadā tucchavat<br/> bhūtvā dīna-gaṇeśakau karuṇayā kaupīna-kanthāśritau<br/> </i>[<i>Ṣaḍ-gosvāmy-aṣṭaka 4</i>]",
"These Gosvāmīs left their very comfortable lives as ministers, Zamindars and learned scholars and joined Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu's movement, just to show mercy to the fallen souls of the world (<i>dīna-gaṇeśakau karuṇayā</i>). Accepting very humble lives as mendicants, wearing no more than loincloths and torn quilts (<i>kaupīna-kantha</i>), they lived in Vṛndāvana and followed Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu's order to excavate Vṛndāvana's lost glories.",
"Similarly, everyone else with a materially comfortable condition in this world should join the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement to elevate the fallen souls. The words <i>bhūta-dayayā, māyā-mṛgaṁ dayitayepsitam</i> and <i>dīna-gaṇeśakau karuṇayā</i> all convey the same sense. These are very significant words for those interested in elevating human society to a proper understanding of life. One should join the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement, following the examples of such great personalities as Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, the six Gosvāmīs and, before them, the great sage Dadhīci. Instead of wasting one's life for temporary bodily comforts, one should always be prepared to give up one's life for better causes. After all, the body will be destroyed. Therefore one should sacrifice it for the glory of distributing religious principles throughout the world."

"One generally follows different types of religious principles or performs various occupational duties according to the body given to him by the modes of material nature. In this verse, however, real religious principles are explained. Everyone should be unhappy to see others in distress and happy to see others happy. <i>Ātmavat sarva-bhūteṣu:</i> one should feel the happiness and distress of others as his own. It is on this basis that the Buddhist religious principle of nonviolence—<i>ahiṁsaḥ parama-dharmaḥ</i>—is established. We feel pain when someone disturbs us, and therefore we should not inflict pain upon other living beings. Lord Buddha's mission was to stop unnecessary animal killing, and therefore he preached that the greatest religious principle is nonviolence.",
"One cannot continue killing animals and at the same time be a religious man. That is the greatest hypocrisy. Jesus Christ said, \"Do not kill,\" but hypocrites nevertheless maintain thousands of slaughterhouses while posing as Christians. Such hypocrisy is condemned in this verse. One should be happy to see others happy, and one should be unhappy to see others unhappy. This is the principle to be followed. Unfortunately, at the present moment so-called philanthropists and humanitarians advocate the happiness of humanity at the cost of the lives of poor animals. That is not recommended herein. This verse clearly says that one should be compassionate to all living entities. Regardless of whether human, animal, tree or plant, all living entities are sons of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Lord Kṛṣṇa says in <i>Bhagavad-gītā </i>(14.4):",
"<i>sarva-yoniṣu kaunteya<br/> mūrtayaḥ sambhavanti yāḥ<br/> tāsāṁ brahma mahad yonir<br/> ahaṁ bīja-pradaḥ pitā</i>",
"\"It should be understood that all species of life, O son of Kuntī, are made possible by birth in this material nature, and that I am the seed-giving father.\" The different forms of these living entities are only their external dresses. Every living being is actually a spirit soul, a part and parcel of God. Therefore one should not favor only one kind of living being. A Vaiṣṇava sees all living entities as part and parcel of God. As the Lord says in <i>Bhagavad-gītā</i> (5.18 and 18.54):",
"<i>vidyā-vinaya-sampanne<br/> brāhmaṇe gavi hastini<br/> śuni caiva śvapāke ca<br/> paṇḍitāḥ sama-darśinaḥ</i>",
"\"The humble sage, by virtue of true knowledge, sees with equal vision a learned and gentle <i>brāhmaṇa,</i> a cow, an elephant, a dog and a dog-eater [outcaste].\"",
"<i>brahma-bhūtaḥ prasannātmā<br/> na śocati na kāṅkṣati<br/> samaḥ sarveṣu bhūteṣu<br/> mad-bhaktiṁ labhate parām</i>",
"\"One who is transcendentally situated at once realizes the Supreme Brahman and becomes fully joyful. He never laments nor desires to have anything; he is equally disposed to every living entity. In that state he attains pure devotional service unto Me.\" A Vaiṣṇava, therefore, is truly a perfect person because he laments to see others unhappy and feels joy at seeing others happy. A Vaiṣṇava is <i>para-duḥkha-duḥkhī;</i> <i>he</i> is always unhappy to see the conditioned souls in an unhappy state of materialism. Therefore a Vaiṣṇava is always busy preaching Kṛṣṇa consciousness throughout the world."

If all philanthropic and humanitarian activities were directed toward achieving the ultimate goal of life—to please the Supreme Personality of Godhead—they would all be perfect. Humanitarian work without Kṛṣṇa is nothing. Kṛṣṇa must be brought to the center of all our activities; otherwise no activity will have value."

"purport": [
"As indicated by the words <i>pare bhagavati brahmaṇy ātmānaṁ sannayan,</i> Dadhīci placed himself, as spirit soul, at the lotus feet of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. In this regard, one may refer to the incident of Dhṛtarāṣṭra's leaving his body, as described in the First Canto of <i>Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam</i> (1.13.55). Dhṛtarāṣṭra analytically divided his gross material body into the five different elements of which it was made—earth, water, fire, air and ether—and distributed them to the different reservoirs of these elements; in other words, he merged these five elements into the original <i>mahat-tattva.</i> By identifying his material conception of life, he gradually separated his spirit soul from material connections and placed himself at the lotus feet of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. The example given in this connection is that when an earthen pot is broken, the small portion of the sky within the pot is united with the large sky outside the pot. Māyāvādī philosophers misunderstand this description of <i>Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam.</i> Therefore Śrī Rāmānuja Svāmī, in his book <i>Vedānta-tattva-sāra,</i> has described that this merging of the soul means that after separating himself from the material body made of eight elements—earth, water, fire, air, ether, false ego, mind and intelligence—the individual soul engages himself in devotional service to the Supreme Personality of Godhead in His eternal form (<i>īśvaraḥ paramaḥ kṛṣṇaḥ sac-cid-ānanda-vigrahaḥ/ anādir ādir govindaḥ sarva-kāraṇa-kāraṇam</i>). The material cause of the material elements absorbs the material body, and the spiritual soul assumes its original position. As described by Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, <i>jīvera 'svarūpa' haya—kṛṣṇera 'nitya-dāsa': </i>the constitutional position of the living entity is that he is the eternal servant of Kṛṣṇa. When one overcomes the material body through cultivation of spiritual knowledge and devotional service, one can revive his own position and thus engage in the service of the Lord."
