Srimad-Bhagavatam Lectures

When one is situated in his original, constitutional position, giving up all false notions, he's liberated. That is liberation. Liberation is not very difficult. Simply . . . there is another verse, that by awakening knowledge one becomes liberated immediately. But, but what is that knowledge?.

So our conception is very clear; therefore we are liberated. Liberation means to become free from all false conception of life. That is liberation. Liberation does not mean that you have got now two hands and, as soon as you are liberated, you'll have ten hands. No. Liberation means that you become free from all nonsensical, false conception of life. That is liberation. That is the definition given in the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, what is liberation. Muktir hitvā anyathā rūpam. Mukti means to give up, anyathā rūpam. As we are now living under some false conception, so when one gives up this all false conception, that is called mukti. Muktir hitvā anyathā rūpaṁ svarūpeṇa vyavasthitiḥ (SB 2.10.6). And when one is situated in his original, constitutional position, giving up all false notions, he's liberated. That is liberation.

Liberation is not very difficult. Simply . . . there is another verse, that by awakening knowledge one becomes liberated immediately. But, but what is that knowledge? This knowledge is very simple: God is great; we are small. We are His part and parcel; therefore it is our duty to serve Him. Two lines—liberation. Instead of undergoing so much difficult processes, if simply you understand these two lines—God is great, I am very small, and He is the supreme proprietor, or master. He is supplying us all necessities of life, therefore our duty is to serve Him. That's all.

Now, if anyone present here can challenge this statement? Is there anyone? No. You cannot challenge. This is the fact. Simply we are under false impression that, "I am this," "I am that," and lastly, "I am God. I am God." What kind of God you are? (chuckles) If you get immediately little toothache, you go to physician-god, (laughter) the dentist-god and you're claiming that you are God. This is called māyā.
