Devotee: What if a sannyāsi is not Krishna-conscious?
Srila Gour Govinda Swami: Then they will fall down. They cannot keep up sannyāsa if they are not Krishna-conscious. No. This is not a joke. It is very serious. It is the highest, topmost āśrama. Is it child’s play? Today you play with this thing and then, throwing it away, you take another toy and play with it? Is it child’s play to carry a tri-daṇḍa? Today you hold the daṇḍa and tomorrow you throw it and catch another woman? What is this nonsense?
