Krishna has filled up the universe with food and wealth. But, each person gets only what he or she deserves, according to his or her karma.
According to Narada in the Srimad-Bhagavatam therefore, one’s most productive course in the current life is to focus on making spiritual advancement while living simply, working only enough to stay healthy so that one may inquire about self-realization with full vigor.
“Persons who are actually intelligent and philosophically inclined should endeavor only for that purposeful end which is not obtainable even by wandering from the topmost planet [Brahmaloka] down to the lowest planet [Patala]. As far as happiness derived from sense enjoyment is concerned, it can be obtained automatically in course of time, just as in course of time we obtain miseries even though we do not desire them.” (SB 1.5.18)
