In the human society there is some system of religion, how to solve these problems. But people in this age, they have become so misled, misguided, that they are not taking care of the real problem, but they are very much engaged in the temporary problems, which are already solved. We are simply mismanaging them. So how to make solution of the problems of life, that means is called dharma. dharma means the regulative principle which is given to the human society by God. I have already explained many times. Just as the law is given by the state for regulative principles of life, similarly dharma is also regulative principle to the human society, and just to make his life successful.

There are aquatics, there are insects, there are birds, beasts, trees, plants, then human being, by evolution process. So they have no problem. You can see in the early morning, these parrots, they are dancing, chirping, and they have no problem. Immediately they will go to some tree and they will find out some little fruit; they will eat. Their eating problem . . . there is no eating problem, there is no sleeping problem, and there is no sex life problem also. Along with them, there is opposite sex. And they defend in their own way.

So these are not actually problems. These are already settled up according to your body. That is the verdict of the śāstra. Tal labhyate duḥkhavad anyataḥ sukhaṁ kālena sarvatra gabhīra-raṁhasā ([[Vanisource:SB 1.5.18|SB 1.5.18]]). According to your body, your eating problem, your sleeping problem, your sense gratification problem and defending problem are already settled. That is the verdict of the śāstra. Your real problem is, as our Pañca-draviḍa Mahārāja explained, how to solve the problem of repetition of birth, death, old age and disease. That is your problem.

Therefore, in the human society there is some system of religion, how to solve these problems. But people in this age, they have become so misled, misguided, that they are not taking care of the real problem, but they are very much engaged in the temporary problems, which are already solved. We are simply mismanaging them. So how to make solution of the problems of life, that means is called dharma. dharma means the regulative principle which is given to the human society by God. I have already explained many times. Just as the law is given by the state for regulative principles of life, similarly dharma is also regulative principle to the human society, and just to make his life successful.

What is that successful life? Successful life means a human being has come to this human form of life through the evolutionary process. Now he should make such arrangement that next life he may be free from this repetition of birth and death, at least, or he may go to other planets, higher standard of life, as it is explained in the Bhagavad-gītā:

<div class="quote_verse">
:yānti deva-vratā devān
:pitṟn yānti pitṛ-vratāḥ
:bhūtejyā yānti bhūtāni
:mad-yājino 'piyānti mām 
:([[Vanisource:BG 9.25 (1972)|BG 9.25]])
</div>

That is the human life. You prepare yourself for higher standard of life or to make a permanent solution of your miserable condition of life, namely birth, death, old age and disease. This is required. This is human business, or dharma.
