Question: Whether One can Finish all Sorts of Sinful Reactions Within this Material World?...
Prabhupada: No. That is not possible. But it is possible also. What is that? That is also answered in the Bhagavad-gita, that "You give up everything. Surrender unto Me. I shall give you protection from all sinful reactions." So I may be sinful, and there are so many reactions awaiting me for giving me trouble, but as soon as Krsna takes charge of me, then everything is finished. How it can be finished? Because He is all-powerful, He's the supreme. Just like one man is ordered to be hanged. If the president says, "No, he should not be hanged," then immediately all others sanction, because he's the supreme. Similarly, if we surrender to Krsna, in spite of a huge stock of sinful reactions awaiting me, simply for the purpose of my surrendering to Krsna they're all set aside by Krsna. He'll see to it. Simply surrender.

Question: Why not Cultivate Bhagavata-Dharma, Krsna Consciousness, in the Life of Demigods? Why in this Human Form of Life?....
Prabhupada: So the answer is that in the lives of demigod, they are puffed up with so much material enjoyments that there is very little chance to become Krsna conscious.

Question: What is Bhagavata Communism?
Prabhupada: Bhagavata communism says that even if you have got a lizard in your room, you must give him something to eat. If you have got a serpent in your room, you must give it something to eat. Nobody in your house should starve. This is Bhagavata communism.
