True surrender means abandoning the dictates of the senses to follow Krishna's orders alone.Listen — Srila Prabhupada Uvaca
His Divine Grace Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Gosvāmī's Disappearance Day, Bhagavad-gītā 16.7 — December 22, 1975, Bombay 751222DB-BOMBAY [38:52 Minutes] BG-16.07_751222DB-BOMBAY Prabhupāda: ...na śaucaṁ nāpi cācāro na satyaṁ teṣu vidyate [Bg. 16.7] Na śaucaṁ nāpi cācāro na satyaṁ teṣu vidyate. This is a verse from the Sixteenth Chapter of Bhagavad-gītā, where the Lord is describing the symptoms of the demons. This pravṛttiṁ ca nivṛttiṁ ca... Pravṛtti means inclination, inclined.
And nivṛtti means disinclined. So there are two things within this material world. Our inclination is to enjoy the senses. This is general.
Everyone within this material world, even the animals, birds, beasts, human being or more elevated than the human beings—the demigods, kinnaras, or the..., many other higher types of living entities... There are different grades of living entities, 8,400,000 different bodies. So what is their pravṛtti, inclination? The inclination is attraction of man and woman.
This is the central point of attraction. Puṁsāṁ striyaḥ maithuni-bhāvam etad: the whole material world is existing on this point—sex, man and woman. So this is pravṛtti-mārga. And nivṛtti-mārga: just to stop it.
This is called nivṛtti-mārga. We are within this material world on account of this pravṛtti, sense enjoyment. Those who are inclined to sense enjoyment and do not care to know what is the aim of life, they are called asuras. And those who are trying to avoid the entanglement of this material life and revive the whole original life...
Whole original life means Kṛṣṇa conscious life. Because we are part and parcel of Kṛṣṇa, our original consciousness is that "I have got intimate relationship with Kṛṣṇa as His part and parcel." That is Kṛṣṇa consciousness. And the..., my conception is the bodily conception, that "I am this body. I am born in this country; therefore I belong to this nation, I belong to this community, I belong to this family, I belong to this species," this is called pravṛtti-mārga.
This is scientific division, pravṛtti-mārga, nivṛtti-mārga. Why the scientific? Because this is the fact. Science means fact. I am not this body.
