Srimad-Bhagavatam Lectures

Just like a man is punished in prison, he can understand, "Yes, I committed theft; therefore I was arrested and punished." But how I am put into this material condition, always suffering three kinds of miserable conditions: ādhyātmika, ādhibhautika, ādhidaivika, due to this body? Just like body is feeling too much warm, I require little fan—this is bodily miserable condition.

Similarly mental miserable conditions. "I don't feel today very happy"—somehow or other mind is not good condition. This is called ādhyātmika. Then somebody, other, other living entity, he's giving me some trouble—just like the insects, mosquito, mouse, tiger or a bad man, neighbor, unnecessarily giving me trouble. I don't want it, but he is giving me some trouble, complaining, "Oh, you are having kīrtana. Let me go to the police." (laughter)

So this is called ādhi . . . adhyātmika, ādhibhautika and ādhidaivika.

The only intelligent men, if there is anyone, it is in this Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement. All rascals. I challenge it. Because life is meant for tattva-jijñāsā. They do not inquire. They do not inquire, "I do not want this. I do not like this. Why it is happening?" Just like why you are running on this fan? Because I do not want too much warm. But warm is forced upon me in certain period, so I have to manufacture this fan. Similarly, in winter I don't want too much cold, so I have to cover with heavy coats and heater. So this is struggling going on, and the rascals do not want, that "I do not want this. Why it is forced upon me?" This is really tattva-jijñāsā. This is called tattva-jijñāsā. Jijñāsā means inquiry, "Now why it is forced upon me?"

Just like a man is punished in prison, he can understand, "Yes, I committed theft; therefore I was arrested and punished." But how I am put into this material condition, always suffering three kinds of miserable conditions: ādhyātmika, ādhibhautika, ādhidaivika, due to this body? Just like body is feeling too much warm, I require little fan—this is bodily miserable condition.

Similarly mental miserable conditions. "I don't feel today very happy"—somehow or other mind is not good condition. This is called ādhyātmika. Then somebody, other, other living entity, he's giving me some trouble—just like the insects, mosquito, mouse, tiger or a bad man, neighbor, unnecessarily giving me trouble. I don't want it, but he is giving me some trouble, complaining, "Oh, you are having kīrtana. Let me go to the police." (laughter)

So this is called ādhi . . . adhyātmika, ādhibhautika and ādhidaivika. Daivika means just like there was all of a sudden great flood in New York. There may be a heavy earthquake, famine, some infectious disease—you cannot control.
