Actual life, this human form of life, is meant for to get out of this darkness of material world. Tamasi mā jyotir gama. This is the information, Vedic information, "Don't remain in this darkness." Darkness . . . this, this material world is dark. Just like night, it was dark. Actually it was dark. And because the sunshine is there, now we are seeing each other.

"Everyone who has taken birth on the land of Bhārata-varṣa, he must make his life successful." Because here we have the opportunity in what is mumukṣava, what is liberation, actually. We have got this information in Bhārata-varṣa. No other country. Their liberation means so-called political liberation and making humbug all these things—fighting with one an . . . that is not liberation. Liberation means to get out of the cycle of repetition of birth and death. That is called liberation. But they have no idea whose liberation, what is liberation, after liberation where to go. All this knowledge, practically blocked.

So it is very difficult to understand the statements of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam like this verse: mumukṣavo ghora-rūpān hitvā bhūta-patīn atha ([[Vanisource:SB 1.2.26|SB 1.2.26]]). They do not understand. People are so misguided, ill-educated, that they do not understand it. Otherwise, the land of Bhārata-varṣa is meant for liberation. In other land they take birth, they have no information of liberation. Here in this land, Bhārata-varṣa, there is the idea of liberation, mukti. Mukti.

So we should be interested in that liberation. Mumukṣava. Mumukṣa icchavaḥ, "those who are desiring." Those who want to remain within this bondage, material bondage of transmigrating from one body . . . Ābrahma-bhuvanāl lokāḥ punar āvartino 'rjuna ([[Vanisource:BG 8.16 (1972)|BG 8.16]]). Ābrahma-bhuvanāl lokāḥ. We are trying to improve our material condition. Sometimes we are going up, sometimes we are coming down. This is going on.

But actual life, this human form of life, is meant for to get out of this darkness of material world. Tamasi mā jyotir gama. This is the information, Vedic information, "Don't remain in this darkness." Darkness . . . this, this material world is dark. Just like night, it was dark. Actually it was dark. And because the sunshine is there, now we are seeing each other.

Actually it is dark. And dark also—ignorance. We do not know what is the aim of life. Therefore the whole world is darkness. And the Vedic information is, "Do not remain in the darkness. Come to the light." But that education is wanting. That is called mukti, to get out of the darkness of ignorance and darkness of this material world.

So mumukṣava, if one is serious to go out of this darkness to the light, then his duty is to . . . here, as it is mentioned: nārāyaṇa-kalāḥ śāntā bhajanti hy anasūyavaḥ ([[Vanisource:SB 1.2.26|SB 1.2.26]]). Anasūyava. Asūya. Asūya means envious. Just like when we present Kṛṣṇa, especially in India . . .

This botheration is not there in other countries, outside India, because they had no information. I have placed before them that "Kṛṣṇa is the Supreme Personality of Godhead. You are searching after God. Here is God. Here is God's name, here is God's address, here is God's activities. You try to understand God. Why you are speculating?"
