	~~INTRODUCTION TEXT TO BE WRITTEN~~		In this world, everyone likes sufficiency as it gives them a sense of satisfaction. If one is self-sufficient (i.e. he can provide for himself), then he is all the more happy as not only can he satisfy his needs, but also has a sense of security. At this material level, if one feels contented with self-sufficiency, then the Supreme Lord Krishna, who is the origin of all in this cosmos, should be the ultimate source of provision of all and thereby, be wholly self-sufficient. It is stated in the scriptures that if one surrenders to Lord Krishna, then he is freed from all anxieties as the Lord provides everything for him, thereby leaving nothing for the him to lament or regret about.

When the conditioned soul finds by culture of knowledge that material necessities are unwanted things, he becomes detached from such unwanted things. This stage of knowledge is called vairāgya, or detachment from unwanted things. We have previously discussed that the transcendentalist is required to be self-sufficient and should not beg from the rich blind persons to fulfill the bare necessities of life.

This indicates that all the planets there are self-illuminated, self-sufficient and independent; everything there is complete. Lord Kṛṣṇa says that once one goes to that Vaikuṇṭha planet, he never returns. '''(Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 3.16.27)'''}}

Due to the wrong type of education being imparted in our universities, boys all over the world are giving their elders headaches. Thus Śrī Īśopaniṣad very strongly warns that the culture of nescience is different from that of knowledge. '''(Sri Isopaniṣad, Mantra 10)'''}}
