Bhagavad-gita As It Is Lectures

So this work, good work or bad work from the material point of view, may be superficially very good. But what . . . how long I shall remain a rich man? How long I shall remain a beautiful man? This is not my permanent life. Suppose if my life is for hundred years, say. I can remain a rich man, I can remain a learned man, I can remain a beautiful man, say, for fifty or sixty or hundred years. But your life is not for hundred years or sixty years or thousands years or millions of years. You are eternal. You have to attain your eternal life. That is the whole problem.

But, that problem you have to solve. That problem can be solved when you are Kṛṣṇa conscious, so that by Kṛṣṇa conscious, when you leave this body, you will no more have to come to this material world and accept this material body or suffer and enjoy thereof. That is the point. The point is very difficult for common men, but this is the point. This is the point. I have to avoid this material existence altogether. That is the point. It is . . . it is not the question of improving my material condition. That is not the solution.
