Because Satyavatī, instead of eating her own oblation, had eaten that which was meant for her mother, she would give birth to a son imbued with the <i>kṣatriya</i> spirit. This was undesirable. The son of a <i>brāhmaṇa</i> is generally expected to become a <i>brāhmaṇa,</i> but if such a son becomes fierce like a <i>kṣatriya,</i> he is designated according to the description of the four <i>varṇas</i> in <i>Bhagavad-gītā</i> (<i>cātur-varṇyaṁ mayā sṛṣṭaṁ guṇa-karma-vibhāgaśaḥ</i>). If the son of a <i>brāhmaṇa</i> does not become like a <i>brāhmaṇa,</i> he may be called a <i>kṣatriya, vaiśya</i> or <i>śūdra,</i> according to his qualifications.

"purport": [
"The <i>kṣatriyas,</i> or the ruling class, must govern the world in accordance with the rules and regulations enacted by great <i>brāhmaṇas</i> and saintly persons. As soon as the ruling class becomes irresponsible in regard to the religious principles, it becomes a burden on the earth. As stated here, <i>rajas-tamo-vṛtaṁ, bhāram abrahmaṇyam:</i> when the ruling class is influenced by the lower modes of nature, namely ignorance and passion, it becomes a burden to the world and must then be annihilated by superior power. We actually see from modern history that monarchies have been abolished by various revolutions, but unfortunately the monarchies have been abolished to establish the supremacy of third-class and fourth-class men. Although monarchies overpowered by the modes of passion and ignorance have been abolished in the world, the inhabitants of the world are still unhappy, for although the qualities of the former monarchs were degraded by taints of ignorance, these monarchs have been replaced by men of the mercantile and worker classes whose qualities are even more degraded. When the government is actually guided by <i>brāhmaṇas,</i> or God conscious men, then there can be real happiness for the people. Therefore in previous times, when the ruling class was degraded to the modes of passion and ignorance, the <i>brāhmaṇas,</i> headed by such a <i>kṣatriya-</i>spirited <i>brāhmaṇa</i> as Paraśurāma, killed them twenty-one consecutive times.",
"In Kali-yuga, as stated in <i>Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam</i> (12.2.13), <i>dasyu-prāyeṣu rājasu:</i> the ruling class (<i>rājanya</i>) will be no better than plunderers (<i>dasyus</i>) because the third-class and fourth-class men will monopolize the affairs of the government. Ignoring the religious principles and brahminical rules and regulations, they will certainly try to plunder the riches of the citizens without consideration. As stated elsewhere in <i>Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam</i> (<b>12.1.40):</b>",
"<i>asaṁskṛtāḥ kriyā-hīnā<br/> rajasā tamasāvṛtāḥ<br/> prajās te bhakṣayiṣyanti<br/> mlecchā rājanya-rūpiṇaḥ</i>",
"Being unpurified, neglecting to discharge human duties properly, and being influenced by the modes of passion (<i>rajas</i>) and ignorance (<i>tamas</i>), unclean people (<i>mlecchas</i>), posing as members of the government (<i>rājanya-rūpiṇaḥ</i>), will swallow the citizens (<i>prājas te bhakṣayiṣyanti</i>). And in still another place, <i>Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam</i> (12.2.7-8) says:",
"<i>evaṁ prajābhir duṣṭābhir<br/> ākīrṇe kṣiti-maṇḍale<br/> brahma-viṭ-kṣatra-śūdrāṇāṁ<br/> yo balī bhavitā nṛpaḥ</i>",
"<i>prajā hi lubdhai rājanyair<br/> nirghṛṇair dasyu-dharmabhiḥ<br/> ācchinna-dāra-draviṇā<br/> yāsyanti giri-kānanam</i>",
"Human society is naturally grouped into four divisions, as stated in <i>Bhagavad-gītā </i>(<i>cātur-varṇyaṁ mayā sṛṣṭaṁ guṇa-karma-vibhāgaśaḥ</i>). But if this system is neglected and the qualities and divisions of society are not considered, the result will be <i>brahma-viṭ-kṣatra-śūdrāṇāṁ yo balī bhavitā nṛpaḥ:</i> the so-called caste system of <i>brāhmaṇa, kṣatriya, vaiśya</i> and <i>śūdra</i> will be meaningless. As a result, whoever somehow or other becomes powerful will be the king or president, and thus the <i>prajās,</i> or citizens, will be so harassed that they will give up hearth and home and will go to the forest (<i>yāsyanti giri-kānanam</i>) to escape harassment by government officials who have no mercy and are addicted to the ways of plunderers. Therefore the <i>prajās,</i> or the people in general, must take to the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement, the Hare Kṛṣṇa movement, which is the sound incarnation of the Supreme Personality of Godhead. <i>Kali-kāle nāma-rūpe kṛṣṇa-avatāra:</i> Kṛṣṇa, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, has now appeared as an incarnation by His holy name. Therefore, when the <i>prajās</i> become Kṛṣṇa conscious, they can then expect a good government and good society, a perfect life, and liberation from the bondage of material existence."

"The <i>Brahma-saṁhitā</i> informs us that the spiritual world, and especially the planet Goloka Vṛndāvana, where Kṛṣṇa lives, is full of <i>surabhi</i> cows (<i>surabhīr abhipālayantam</i>). The <i>surabhi</i> cow is also called <i>kāmadhenu.</i> Although Jamadagni possessed only one <i>kāmadhenu,</i> he was able to get from it everything desirable. Thus he was able to receive the King, along with the King's great number of followers, ministers, soldiers, animals and palanquin carriers. When we speak of a king, we understand that he is accompanied by many followers. Jamadagni was able to receive all the King's followers properly and feed them sumptuously with food prepared in ghee. The King was astonished at how opulent Jamadagni was because of possessing only one cow, and therefore he became envious of the great sage. This was the beginning of his offense. Paraśurāma, the incarnation of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, killed Kārtavīryārjuna because Kārtavīryārjuna was too proud. One may possess unusual opulence in this material world, but if one becomes puffed up and acts whimsically he will be punished by the Supreme Personality of Godhead. This is the lesson to learn from this history, in which Paraśurāma became angry at Kārtavīryārjuna and killed him and rid the entire world of <i>kṣatriyas</i> twenty-one times."

"purport": [
"Jamadagni was more powerful than Kārtavīryārjuna because of performing the <i>agnihotra-yajña</i> with clarified butter received from the <i>kāmadhenu.</i> Not everyone can be expected to possess such a cow. Nonetheless, an ordinary man may possess an ordinary cow, give protection to this animal, take sufficient milk from it, and engage the milk to produce butter and clarified ghee, especially for performing the <i>agnihotra-yajña.</i> This is possible for everyone. Thus we find that in <i>Bhagavad-gītā</i> Lord Kṛṣṇa advises <i>go-rakṣya,</i> the protection of cows. This is essential because if cows are cared for properly they will surely supply sufficient milk. We have practical experience in America that in our various ISKCON farms we are giving proper protection to the cows and receiving more than enough milk. In other farms the cows do not deliver as much milk as in our farms; because our cows know very well that we are not going to kill them, they are happy, and they give ample milk. Therefore this instruction given by Lord Kṛṣṇa—<i>go-rakṣya</i>—is extremely meaningful. The whole world must learn from Kṛṣṇa how to live happily without scarcity simply by producing food grains (<i>annād bhavanti bhūtāni</i>) and giving protection to the cows (<i>go-rakṣya</i>). <i>Kṛṣi-gorakṣya-vāṇijyaṁ vaiśya-karma svabhāvajam.</i> Those who belong to the third level of human society, namely the mercantile people, must keep land for producing food grains and giving protection to cows. This is the injunction of <i>Bhagavad-gītā.</i> In the matter of protecting the cows, the meat-eaters will protest, but in answer to them we may say that since Kṛṣṇa gives stress to cow protection, those who are inclined to eat meat may eat the flesh of unimportant animals like hogs, dogs, goats and sheep, but they should not touch the life of the cows, for this is destructive to the spiritual advancement of human society."

For performing <i>yajña,</i> clarified butter is essential, and for clarified butter, cow protection is essential. Therefore, if we neglect the Vedic way of civilization, we shall certainly suffer. So-called scholars and philosophers do not know the secret of success in life, and therefore they suffer in the hands of <i>prakṛti,</i> nature (<i>prakṛteḥ kriyamāṇāni guṇaiḥ karmāṇi sarvaśaḥ</i>). Nonetheless, although they are forced to suffer, they think they are advancing in civilization (<i>ahaṅkāra-vimūḍhātmā kartāham iti manyate</i>). The Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is therefore meant to revive a mode of civilization in which everyone will be happy.

"Different personalities become beautiful by possessing different qualities. Cāṇakya Paṇḍita says that the cuckoo bird, although very black, is beautiful because of its sweet voice. Similarly, a woman becomes beautiful by her chastity and faithfulness to her husband, and an ugly person becomes beautiful when he becomes a learned scholar. In the same way, <i>brāhmaṇas, kṣatriyas, vaiśyas</i> and <i>śūdras</i> become beautiful by their qualities. <i>Brāhmaṇas</i> are beautiful when they are forgiving, <i>kṣatriyas</i> when they are heroic and never retreat from fighting, <i>vaiśyas</i> when they enrich cultural activities and protect cows, and <i>śūdras</i> when they are faithful in the discharge of duties pleasing to their masters. Thus everyone becomes beautiful by his special qualities. And the special quality of the <i>brāhmaṇa,</i> as described here, is forgiveness."

"One who fully surrenders to the Supreme Personality of Godhead is freed from all sins (<i>ahaṁ tvāṁ sarva-pāpebhyo mokṣayiṣyāmi</i>). From the very day or moment he fully surrenders to Śrī Kṛṣṇa, even the most sinful person is freed. Nonetheless, as an example, Jamadagni advised his son Paraśurāma to worship the holy places. Because an ordinary person cannot immediately surrender to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, he is advised to go from one holy place to another to find saintly persons and thus gradually be released from sinful reactions."
