Sarvatah means

Conversations and Morning Walks

1974 Conversations and Morning Walks

Sarvataḥ means everywhere, in any condition. This is available. And still, people are busy for these four things.
Morning Walk -- January 23, 1974, Hawaii:

Prabhupāda: ...that sex is there.

Sudāmā: Yes, yes.

Prabhupāda: That is not missed.

Sudāmā: No.

Prabhupāda: Therefore, Bhāgavata says, viṣayaḥ khalu sarvataḥ syāt. Viṣaya, the four things—eating, sleeping, mating, defending—in any condition of life they're available. They're available. It doesn't matter in what condition of life you are living, but these things are available. Viṣayaḥ khalu sarvataḥ syāt. Sarvataḥ means everywhere, in any condition. This is available. And still, people are busy for these four things. Good morning. (to passers-by) That is assured, that any condition of life, you'll have these four things. Tasyaiva hetoḥ prayateta kovido na labhyate yad bhramatām upary adhaḥ (SB 1.5.18). Therefore we should not endeavor for these four things. That is already fixed. I'll get in any condition of life. Then? What for our energy should be employed? Which was not available, wandering up and down, beginning from the heavenly planet down to the Pluto's planet.
