Prabhupāda: Every one of us, we are attached to the body, and on account of being attached to the body the material activities are going on. These motorcars are running, karmīs are going here and there, what is the purpose? To maintain the body? Divasa śarīra-sāje. Miche nida-baśe gelo re rāti divasa śarīra-sāje (Aruṇodaya-kīrtana verse 3). The body is given rest at night to revive, and daytime the activity for the matter of maintaining the body. But despite my all endeavor to maintain this body, it will not stay. It will give me up my company and I'll have to accept another body. Tathā dehāntara-prāptiḥ ([[Vanisource:BG 2.13|BG 2.13]]).
Prabhupāda: Every one of us, we are attached to the body, and on account of being attached to the body the material activities are going on. These motorcars are running, ''karmīs'' are going here and there, what is the purpose? To maintain the body? ''Divasa śarīra-sāje. Miche nida-baśe gelo re rāti divasa śarīra-sāje'' (''Aruṇodaya-kīrtana'' verse 3). The body is given rest at night to revive, and daytime the activity for the matter of maintaining the body. But despite my all endeavor to maintain this body, it will not stay. It will give me up my company and I'll have to accept another body. ''Tathā dehāntara-prāptiḥ'' ([[vanisource:BG 2.13 (1972)|BG 2.13]]).  


So Bali Mahārāja says, "What is the use of such endeavor?" Therefore big, big saintly persons, they do not care for the body. Lying down anywhere. But they are very serious about spiritual advancement. And people in general, they are interested in maintaining the body. It is not that we should be neglectful to the body. Just like that example is also there... Just like we require fruits and flowers. So if we neglect the tree, there will be no fruits and flower. If we cut the tree, it will dry up and there will be no fruits and flowers. The fruits and flower, this human body, the fruits and flowers mean self-realization. Bali Mahārāja analyzes the family. He says family means rogues and thieves. Whatever you want, they'll take away. The pickpocket takes from your pocket and he becomes a criminal, and when the wife takes thousand dollars from your pocket, you do not consider to be criminal. You laugh, "Oh, you have taken the money?" "Yes, I've taken." The business is a pickpocket. But in one case we say "criminal," and one case we say "friend." The business is the same. Svajanākhya-dasyu. Actually thieves and rogues, but we have named them "relatives."

And people in general, they are interested in maintaining the body. It is not that we should be neglectful to the body.


Prabhupāda: Every one of us, we are attached to the body, and on account of being attached to the body the material activities are going on. These motorcars are running, karmīs are going here and there, what is the purpose? To maintain the body? Divasa śarīra-sāje. Miche nida-baśe gelo re rāti divasa śarīra-sāje (Aruṇodaya-kīrtana verse 3). The body is given rest at night to revive, and daytime the activity for the matter of maintaining the body. But despite my all endeavor to maintain this body, it will not stay. It will give me up my company and I'll have to accept another body. Tathā dehāntara-prāptiḥ (BG 2.13).
