Text 144] The Deliverance of Gopinatha Pattanayaka 197

PURPORT

When a person forgets his position as an eternal servant of Krsna, he commits
many sinful activities, but one who maintains his position as an eternal servant of
Krsna cannot deviate from the path of morality, religion and ethics. At the present,
people all over the world, especially in India, have forgotten their relationship
with the Supreme Personality of Godhead and His eternal servants. Therefore the
principles of morality, religion and ethics have almost disappeared. This situation
is most unprofitable for human society. Therefore everyone should try to accept
Krsna consciousness and follow the principles of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu.
