The Supreme Person is the most lazy person


Prabhupada:
First-class men. Our definition of God is: na tasya karyam karanam ca vidyate. "He has nothing to do." This is God. Na tasya karyam karanam ca vidyate: "He has nothing to do." He is simply enjoying, dancing with the gopis, that's all. Why He should go to work? Then what kind of God he is? Na tasya karyam karanam ca vidyate.


Devotee: But He also says in Gita that He works too.

Prabhupada: Just to teach these rascals to work. Because here, without working, you cannot get your food. Therefore laziness condemned here in this material world. And in the spiritual world the Supreme Person is the most lazy person. (laughter)
