Freedom from material desire through complete surrender to Krishna ends the cycle of repeated birth and death.Listen — Srila Prabhupada Uvaca
Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 2.3.9 — May 26, 1972, Los Angeles 720526SB-LOS ANGELES [29:11 Minutes] SB-02.03.09_720526SB-LOS ANGELES Prabhupāda: Hmm? The small books? Where it has gone? Anyone will do.
Come on. Why you are back side? Pradyumna: Oṁ namo bhagavate vāsudevāya. Oṁ namo bhagavate vāsudevāya. Oṁ namo bhagavate vāsudevāya.
[leads chanting of verse] [Prabhupāda and devotees repeat] rājya-kāmo manūn devān nirṛtiṁ tv abhicaran yajet kāma-kāmo yajet somam akāmaḥ puruṣaṁ param [SB 2.3.9] Prabhupāda: Girls? Anyone? [girls chant] That's all right. Then, word meaning. Pradyumna: [leads chanting of synonyms] [break] rājya-kāmaḥ—anyone desiring an empire or kingdom; manūn—the Manus, semi-incarnations of God; devān—demigods; nirṛtim—demons; tu—but; abhicaran—desiring victory over the enemy; yajet—should worship; kāma-kāmaḥ—one who desires sense gratification; yajet—should worship; somam—the demigod named Candra; akāmaḥ—one who has no material desires to be fulfilled; puruṣam—the Supreme Personality of Godhead; param—the Supreme.
Finished. Brahmaṇy upaśamāśrayam. Upaśama. Upaśama means completely finished, don't want.
They can worship the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Otherwise, without being akāma... Akāma means no material desires. Anyābhilāṣitā-śūnyam [Brs. 1.1.11(1)], completely.
If we have got least desire for material enjoyment, Kṛṣṇa will give us chance again to accept a body which will satisfy the senses. Deha-yogena dehinām. For our sense gratification, a particular type of body is offered, by the order of Kṛṣṇa, through the agency of material nature. Just like father gives the seed, and the mother gives the body, similarly, Kṛṣṇa, the supreme father, He is the giver of the seed, living entity, and according to the living entity's desire, the material nature gives the body. Therefore material nature is mother, and Kṛṣṇa is the supreme father.
Tasmin garbhaṁ dadhāmy aham [Bg. 14.3]. Garbhaṁ dadāmy aham: "I give the seed, garbha, pregnancy." So we are part and parcel of Kṛṣṇa, and He... According to my desire, He puts me into a circumstances, material circumstances; I get a particular type of body. This is the secret of different types of body and transmigration of the body.
