This trouble of repeating birth and death, the cycle of birth and death, this should be stopped. This is the information of ''Bhagavad-gītā''. This is the perfection.
 
Any . . . any system, either ''yoga'' system or ''jñāna'' system or ''bhakti'' system—anything, if you . . . whatever you like, you can accept; but the ultimate goal is this ''paramāṁ gatim''. If this is not achieved, then all ''yoga'' exercise and all philosophical speculation—all nonsense, simply waste of time. Simply a waste of time. ''Ārādhito yadi haris tapasā tataḥ kim'' (''Nārada Pañcarātra'' 1.2.6).
 
If you can achieve this stage, that there is no other necessity of philosophizing or yogic practice or anything, if you receive that, if you reach that perfection. And if you do not reach that perfection, then it is all useless.
 
So, ''ārādhito yadi haris tapasā tataḥ kim, nārādhito yadi haris tapasā tataḥ kim'' (''Nārada Pañcarātra'' 1.2.6): "One who reaches there, for him, all kinds of penances, austerities—no more required. And one who does not reach that place, all these austerities, penances—useless, simply waste of time." So this should be the aim of human life. Human civilization, human society, should be so formed that they should have the opportunity.
 
The human form of life is the opportunity to get this boon. So it is the duty of the state, duty of the parents, duty of the guardians, duty of the husband, duty of the father—everyone's duty is how to elevate a living creature who has got this fortunate human form of life to understand this ''paramāṁ gatim'', highest perfection of life. That should be the mode of thing.
 
Simply have some eating and sleeping and mating and some defense and quarreling like cats and dogs—this is not civilization. The human civilization is this, that he should properly utilize this human form of life and take advantage of this knowledge and prepare himself in Kṛṣṇa consciousness so that always, twenty-four hours, cent percent, he will be absorbed in Kṛṣṇa and at the time of death at once transferred there. This should be the process of life.
 
Therefore we have taken this movement, Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Join us. Cooperate with us. You'll . . . yourself you will be benefited, and the world will be benefited, this Kṛṣṇa consciousness. So, ''yaṁ prāpya na nivartante tad dhāma paramaṁ mama'' ([[Vanisource:BG 8.21 (1972)|BG 8.21]]).
 
The Lord says: "That superior place, superior nature, if somebody can go there, then he has no more to come back here. He gets the highest perfection of life." Now, if there . . . what is there? What is the nature and what are the paraphernalia? Now, here it is said, ''puruṣaḥ sa paraḥ pārtha bhaktyā labhyas tv ananyayā'' ([[Vanisource:BG 8.22 (1972)|BG 8.22]]).
 
Now, if we are at all interested to reach that supreme abode, then the process is ''bhakti''. ''Bhaktyā''. ''Bhaktyā'' means devotional service, submission, submission to the Supreme Lord. ''Bhaktyā'' means ''bhaja''. It is Sanskrit word. The root meaning is ''bhaja-dhātūkti''. ''Bhaja''. ''Bhaja'' means service. So ''bhaja-dhātūkti bhakti, bhaktyā''. </p>
