I wouldn't call booting your arse out of 71 for a week at a time a 'status symbol', I would consider it an act of devotional service. Consider:
Chapter 15, Verse 5.
'One who is free from illusion, false prestige, and false association, who understands the eternal, who is done with material lust and is freed from the duality of happiness and distress, and who knows how to surrender unto the Supreme Person, attains to that eternal kingdom.'
So fuck YOUR shit.
