Bhagavad-gita As It Is Lectures

Duḥkhālayam aśāśvatam (BG 8.15). It is the place for miseries, and that is also temporary. If you want to make some compromise, "Never mind it is a place of miseries. I'll stay here comfortably as much as possible." But Kṛṣṇa says, aśāśvatam. Even if you make some compromise arrangement, you cannot stay here. You'll be kicked out. As soon as you think that, "Now I have got a very nice building, very nice wife and children. Everything is properly settled. Now I am happy," next day, "Get out." Finished. This is the law.

Here we have come falsely to become enjoyer. Falsely. Suppose I am American or Indian. I am enjoying my life very nicely. I have got everything complete. But it is no guarantee that next life you shall become American and you will be situated in the same position. Therefore my enjoyment, so-called enjoyment, is false enjoyment. Temporary. It will not stay, because I will have to change body. I will have to change body. There is no guarantee. This is the law of nature. Duḥkhālayam aśāśvatam (BG 8.15). It is the place for miseries, and that is also temporary. If you want to make some compromise, "Never mind it is a place of miseries. I'll stay here comfortably as much as possible." But Kṛṣṇa says, aśāśvatam. Even if you make some compromise arrangement, you cannot stay here. You'll be kicked out. As soon as you think that, "Now I have got a very nice building, very nice wife and children. Everything is properly settled. Now I am happy," next day, "Get out." Finished. This is the law. Daivī hy eṣā guṇamayī mama māyā duratyayā (BG 7.14).

So foolish people, they think that, "Now I am settled up." What is your settlement? First of all make it a settlement that you shall be allowed to stay here. If there is no such guarantee, then where is the settlement? Next life you may become a cat or dog according to your mentality. But these foolish people, they do not know it. They think that, "This is all right." This is not all right.
