Apaśyatām—they cannot see. So who cannot see? Gṛheṣu: those who are compact in household affairs, gṛheṣu gṛha-medhinām.

These Sanskrit words, each and every word is full of meaning. They are very selected words. As soon as a Sanskrit poetry is written, it is not written by inexperienced man haphazardously, but with great brain, with great written and regulation. In Sanskrit poetry you cannot write one line in one way, another line in one way. There is regular system, that the first portion of the line should contain so many letters, the second portion of the line should contain so many letters, and they should be like . . . there is a big book, which is called Sāhitya-darpaṇa, "Mirror of Literary Career." It is not that whimsically I write three lines, one line, and a short line next, it becomes a poetry. It is not like that. So these words,

Who has got many subject matter for hearing? Now, apaśyatām ātma-tattvaṁ: those who are blind, those who cannot see what is the purpose of life. For them. For them.

So generally people are like this. They do not know what is the purpose of life. As I have told you many times, there are big, big professors, they think that there is no life after death. Even Christian religion also thinks like that, that there is no life after death. What is that? Hmm? No. There is life. There is life after death. Therefore it is said, apaśyatām, "one who cannot see." Ātma-tattvaṁ. One who can see, he can very easily see, if he has got a little brain, that there is . . ." Just, I have got my life one after another. I had childish life; I had boyhood life. In childhood my consciousness was not developed. I was talking so many nonsense things. My parents and superiors, they were laughing and enjoying. Why I was talking nonsense in that life, and why I am talking now meaningful at the present moment?" Because the body has changed. It is very easy to understand. I am the same man in my childhood body, I am the same man in my boyhood body, I am the same man in my youth body, and I am the same man in my old age. But in my childhood I was walking naked; I didn’t care for the society. Now, I cannot go naked. So it is the question of development of consciousness according to the body. This is the conclusion.
