This means varnasrama. Srila Prabhupada&#8217;s concern regarding the social structure is actually part of his desire to please Krishna and spread his movement everywhere. In order to have the movement all over the world, we have to have an organization, varnas and asramas. And to maintain this Movement all over the world, most of the people need to be grihastas. This is their sacrifice. Sacrifice for a brahmacari is to do only what his spiritual master tells him to do, to live very, very simply and surrender everything. He should carry all his belongings in a small bag. If he has more than that than he is not a brahmacari, but a mamachari, a gentleman brahmacari.<\/p>\n<p>Sacrifice for a grihastha is to work and maintain the rest of the society. They are the stomach of the society. Varnasrama means that every part of the varnasrama system makes up a different part of the social body. Brahmacaris are the legs, vanaprastas are hands and sannyasis are the head.<\/p>\n<p>In other words, a bonafide duty of grihastas is to take care of economic development. To please Krishna and to have Vedic society, grihastas must be interested in economic development.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It is the duty of a grihasta to take care of economical development Sacrifice for a grihasta is to work and maintain the rest of the society &nbsp; Before leaving this world Srila Prabhupada said that 50% of his mission is still unfullfilled.
