1975 Conversations and Morning Walks

Kṛṣṇa and guru cannot be had in every life. That is only in human life. Otherwise, as soon as there is birth, there is father and mother. Either you become human being or tiger or snake or bird, the father-mother is there. But the spiritual father and Kṛṣṇa, that can be obtained in human life, not in every life.


Prabhupāda: (break) . . . the samosā?

Manasvī: Lilānanda.

Prabhupāda: It is very nice. Why don't you make it in the morning?

Manasvī: For breakfast?

Prabhupāda: Yes. (break) . . . khalu sarvataḥ syāt (SB 11.9.29). Viṣaya means sense enjoyment. Now, that boy and the girl, they're taking dogs. The dog is also male and female, and the man is male and female. So viṣaya means sense enjoyment. The sex enjoyment is both; the dogs and the man, they will have. But the man can get Kṛṣṇa; the dog cannot get Kṛṣṇa. That is the difference. Viṣaya, that sex enjoyment, is available both for the dogs and the man. But the man can achieve Kṛṣṇa; the dog cannot. That is special. Viṣaya khalu sarvataḥ syāt. (break) . . .of eating, sleeping, mating. That is available in every life. (break) . . .another passage is there in Prema-vivarta, janame janame sabe pitā mātā pāya: "In every life, one can get father and mother." Kṛṣṇa guru nahi mile bhajahun re bhāi(?): "But Kṛṣṇa and guru cannot be had in every life." That is only in human life. Otherwise, as soon as there is birth, there is father and mother. Either you become human being or tiger or snake or bird, the father-mother is there. But the spiritual father and Kṛṣṇa, that can be obtained in human life, not in every life.

janame janame sabe pitā mātā pāya
kṛṣṇa guru nahi mile bhaja hari ei
(Prema-vivarta)

So we should take full advantage of the human life. That is civilization. And in sense gratification it is not civilization; it is animal life. (break) . . .for sense gratification. This is the modern civilization. (break) . . .nice place is made for sense gratification. And as soon as you perform kīrtana, the police will harass you. This is civilization. (break) . . .nice place, there should be so many temples. People will come early in the morning, take bath in the sea, go to the temple, have some spiritual inspiration. That program is there. And running. The dog is running and the man is running.
