Bhagavad-gita As It Is Lectures

Brahma means the greatest. Greatest. Bṛhatvād bṛhannatvād iti . . . Brahma means the greatest, and who comes in contact with Brahma, he also becomes greatest. That is called Brahma. So if you accept austerity in this life and don't behave like cats and dogs and hogs, simply for sex pleasure, then the result will be that your existence will be purified, by which you'll realize eternal happiness, anantam, which has no end—no beginning, no end. Actually it is so.

So this knowledge of brahma-saukhyam is . . . in so many ways they are instructed in Vedic literature. We have got volumes and volumes of Vedic literature. The first, we have got the four Vedas. Then we have got the Upaniṣads. Then we have got Vedānta-sūtra. Then we have got Mahābhārata, Rāmāyaṇa, then Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, and so many. And one book, Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, it contains eighteen thousand verses. Mahābhārata contains hundreds of thousand verses. There are eighteen Purāṇas and 108 Upaniṣads and Vedānta-sūtra—immense literature for understanding what is brahma-saukhyam.

So these literatures are meant for the human society, not for the cat society, dog society. The great sages of India, especially Vyāsadeva, he labored so hard and delivered so valuable literatures to us. There is opportunity. It was the duty of India to distribute this knowledge all over the world, this immense treasure of knowledge. Unfortunately . . . and as so far we have studied that persons who are great thinkers, they were expecting. They have still some respect for India's great treasure house of the spiritual knowledge. But unfortunately there is no arrangement for distributing this spiritual knowledge all over the world.
