life to understanding Brahman. A  brahma-jana  is one who knows Brahman; he is called a  brāhmaṇa . Thus charity is offered to the  brāhmaṇas  because since they are always engaged in higher spiritual service, they have no time to earn their livelihood. In the Vedic literature, charity is also to be awarded to the renouncer of life, the  sannyāsī . The  sannyāsīs  beg from door to door, not for money but for missionary purposes. The system is that they go from door to door to awaken the householders from the slumber of ignorance. Because the householders are engaged in family affairs and have forgotten their actual purpose in life—awakening their Kṛṣṇa consciousness—it is the business of the  sannyāsīs  to go as beggars to the householders and encourage them to be Kṛṣṇa conscious. As it is said in the  Vedas , one should awake and achieve what is due him in this human form of life. This knowledge and method is distributed by the  sannyāsīs ; hence charity is to be given to the renouncer of life, to the  brāhmaṇas , and similar good causes, not to any whimsical cause.
Yaśah  , fame, should be according to Lord Caitanya, who said that a man is famous when he is known as a great devotee. That is real fame. If one has become a great man in Kṛṣṇa consciousness and it is known, then he is truly famous. One who does not have such fame is infamous.
All these qualities are manifest throughout the universe in human society and in the society of the demigods. There are many forms of humanity on other planets, and these qualities are there. Now, for one who wants to advance in Krṣṇa consciousness, Krṣṇa creates all these qualities, but the person develops them himself from within. One who engages in the devotional service of the Supreme Lord develops all the good qualities, as arranged by the Supreme Lord.
Of whatever we find, good or bad, the origin is Kṛṣṇa. Nothing can manifest in this material world which is not in Kṛṣṇa. That is knowledge; although we know that things are differently situated, we should realize that everything flows from Kṛṣṇa.
