TRANSLATION
The path
of this material world is full of material miseries, and various troubles
disturb the conditioned souls. Sometimes he loses, and sometimes he gains. In
either case, the path is full of danger. Sometimes the conditioned soul is
separated from his father by death or other circumstances. Leaving him aside he
gradually becomes attached to others, such as his children. In this way, the
conditioned soul is sometimes illusioned and afraid. Sometimes he cries loudly
out of fear. Sometimes he is happy maintaining his family, and sometimes he is
overjoyed and sings melodiously. In this way he becomes entangled and forgets
his separation from the Supreme Personality of Godhead since time immemorial.
Thus he traverses the dangerous path of material existence, and on this path he
is not at all happy. Those who are self-realized simply take shelter of the
Supreme Personality of Godhead in order to get out of this dangerous material
existence. Without accepting the devotional path, one cannot get out of the
clutches of material existence. The conclusion is that no one can be happy in
material life. One must take to Kṛṣṇa consciousness.
PURPORT
By
thoroughly analyzing the materialistic way of life, any sane man can understand
that there is not the least happiness in this world. However, due to continuing
on the path of danger from time immemorial and not associating with saintly
persons, the conditioned soul, under illusion, wants to enjoy this material
world. Material energy sometimes gives him a chance at so-called happiness, but
the conditioned soul is perpetually being punished by material nature. It is
therefore said: daṇḍya-jane
rājā yena nadīte cubāya (CC
Madhya 20.118). Materialistic life means continuous unhappiness, but sometimes
we accept happiness as it appears between the gaps. Sometimes a condemned
person is submerged in water and hauled out. Actually all of this is meant for
punishment, but he feels a little comfort when he is taken out of the water.
This is the situation with the conditioned soul. All the śāstras
therefore advise that one associate with devotees and saintly people.
sādhu-saṅga', 'sādhu-saṅga'—sarva-śāstre kaya
lava-mātra sādhu-saṅge
sarva-siddhi haya
(CC Madhya
22.54)
Even by a
little association with devotees, the conditioned soul can get out of this
miserable material condition. This Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is
therefore trying to give everyone a chance to associate with saintly people.
Therefore all the members of this Kṛṣṇa consciousness society must
themselves be perfect sādhus in order to give a chance to
fallen conditioned souls. This is the best humanitarian work.
