Nitāi: "Engaged constantly in chanting and hearing about Me, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, the sādhus do not suffer from material miseries because they are always filled with thoughts of My pastimes and activities."
Prabhupāda:
- mad-āśrayāḥ kathā mṛṣṭāḥ
- śṛṇvanti kathayanti ca
- tapanti vividhās tāpā
- naitān mad-gata-cetasaḥ
- (SB 3.25.23)
Na etān. Generally, people, they are suffering. There is nobody in the world, those who are materially engaged, can say boldly that "I am not suffering." Is there anybody? I challenge anyone. Can anyone say that "I am not suffering"? So everyone must be suffering. Now, why these Anacin tablets are advertised, "pain-killer"? Because they are suffering. And not in this country, but in the Western countries, America, one takes at least one dozen tablet daily for mitigating suffering—tranquilizer, this, that, so many.
