The laws of nature are such that whatever activities you are engaged in during your life, that is what you think about at the moment of death. If you have lived a life thinking of Krsna, serving Krsna, then there is a good chance that you would think of Krsna at the moment of death. If on the other hand, you are engaged in opposite activities then it will be impossible to remember the Lord at the moment of death. Theref

If you understand Krsna, then you become more than a brahmana. Try to understand Krsna, and then your life is successful. And Krsna is being distributed by Lord Krsna.
