So the Krsna consciousness movement is so important. If people simply learn this, that everything belongs to Krsna... Isavasyam idam sarvam. Sarvam means "everything." Not that "This much is mine, this much is Krsna's." No. Sarvam. Isavasyam idam sarvam yat kinca jagatyam jagat, tena tyaktena bhunjithah... Simply we shall use as much He has allotted for us. Then there is peace and prosperity, without any difficulty. Otherwise, you go on adjusting your material possessions; the time will take away everything. When you die by the..., in due course of time, then whatever possession we have got, all finished. That is stated in the Bhagavad-gita, mrtyuh sarva-haras ca aham: "I am death." Krsna is everything. So death is also Krsna. Just like here is a picture of Hiranyakasipu. Such a great demon, so proud. He was thinking that "I am the proprietor of everything." He was chastising his son, doing everything, whatever he liked. But when Nrsimhadeva came, within a second, everything finished. Everything finished. But Prahlada remained the same. Prahlada is not finished. Hiranyakasipu is finished. So those who are trying to be very, very big by material possessions, they'll be all finished. But if you remain in the position of Prahlada, you'll never be finished.By H.D.G. Srila Prabhupada
