Drink the nectar of Krishna's pastimes to transcend death and Yamaraja's judgment through devoted Krishna consciousness.Listen — Srila Prabhupada Uvaca
Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 1.16.8 — January 5, 1974, Los Angeles 740105SB-LOS ANGELES [38:54 Minutes] SB-01.16.08_740105SB-LOS ANGELES Pradyumna: [leads chanting of verse] [Prabhupāda and devotees repeat] na kaścin mriyate tāvad yāvad āsta ihāntakaḥ etad-arthaṁ hi bhagavān āhūtaḥ paramarṣibhiḥ aho nṛ-loke pīyeta hari-līlāmṛtaṁ vacaḥ [SB 1.16.8] [leads chanting of synonyms] [break] [02:12] Translation: "As long as Yamarāja, who causes everyone's death, is present here, no one shall meet with death. The great sages have invited the controller of death, Yamarāja, who is the representative of the Lord. Living beings who are under his grip should take advantage by hearing the deathless nectar in the form of this narration of the transcendental pastimes of the Lord." Prabhupāda: So Yamarāja, Yamarāja is the representative of the Lord. Just like the police chief.
The... What is called, the police chief? The superintendent or what?
Prabhupāda: Commissioner. Commissioner of police. He is representative of government. So the police department is fearful department for the criminals, not for the law-abiding persons.
Similarly, Yamarāja, who is the superintendent of death... Death is certainly cruel. At any moment death can stop all our activities. Nobody can protest.
That is not possible. So... And nobody wants death also. That is also fact.
But nobody can stop death also. The so-called scientific advancement, they cannot stop death. You can talk all kinds of nonsense of advancement of life, but after all, you have to die. Big, big scientists, professors, they talk so many things, but when death came, he could not save him by his scientific process.
Because death is the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Who can check? Therefore the Lord's name is Ajita, Ajita. Ajita means one who is never conquered by any other means.
