Secure your basic needs naturally; use human intelligence for what nature cannot give—eternal spiritual reality.Listen — Srila Prabhupada Uvaca
Morning Walk — January 23, 1974, Honolulu 740123MW-HONOLULU [20:42 Minutes] Walk_740123MW-HONOLULU Prabhupāda: ...that sex is there. Sudāmā: Yes, yes.
Prabhupāda: That is not missed. Sudāmā: No.
Prabhupāda: Therefore Bhāgavata says, viṣayaḥ khalu sarvataḥ syāt [SB 11.9.29]. Viṣaya, the four things—eating, sleeping, mating, defending—in any condition of life they're available. They're available. It doesn't matter in what condition of life you are living, but these things are available: viṣayaḥ khalu sarvataḥ syāt.
Sarvataḥ means everywhere, in any condition, this is available. A still, people are busy for these four things. [to passers-by:] Good morning. That is assured, that any condition of life, you'll have these four things.
Tasyaiva hetoḥ prayateta kovido na labhyate yad bhramatām upary adhaḥ [SB 1.5.18]. Therefore we should not endeavor for these four things. That is already fixed. I'll get in any condition of life.
Then? What for our energy should be employed? Which was not available, wandering up and down, beginning from the heavenly planet down to the Pluto's planet. [aside:] This is a passenger ship?
Prabhupāda: They stand there, and passengers come here? Sudāmā: Yes.
