But as soon as one engages himself in the one single obligatory duty of spiritual perfection he liquidates automatically all other obligations without any separate effort.
A devotee of the Lord is never a disturbing element in the society but on the contrary he becomes an asset to all others. As far as possible no devotee is attracted by any sinful action and as soon as man becomes a devotee he can do inestimable service to the society for peace and prosperity of all concerned in this life as well as in the next. Such devotees even if by chance may commit something undesirable the Lord himself rectifies them in no time. Therefore, there is no necessity of culturing superfluous knowledge or abdication by a devotee. A devotee can safely remain at his place and execute the devotional service smoothly in any order of life. There are instances in the history that the cruelest man becames the highest type of kind-hearted man simply by execution of devotional service. Knowledge and abnegation follow automatically in the life of a pure devotee without extraneous effort by him.

Every one therefore who has taken his birthright in India has an obligation of making his life perfect by adopting the principles of this great art and science and then distribute the same to the rest of the world who are still in the darkness to fix up the ultimate aim of life. The human society is destined to reach to this stage of perfection by gradual development of knowledge. Indian sages had already reached the position while other have to tread on the path for many more thousands of years to come to that stage. Why not give them the information immediately in a systematic way so that they may not only save time and energy for this progress of life, but also may take immediately the advantage of life which they may obtain by labour of another millions of years.
