Fix your mind on Krishna's lotus feet to transcend the modes of nature and secure your eternal destination.Listen — Srila Prabhupada Uvaca
Pradyumna: Translation: "Prahlāda Mahārāja prayed: How is it possible for me, who have been born in a family of asuras, to offer suitable prayers to satisfy the Supreme Personality of Godhead? Even until now, all the demigods, headed by Lord Brahmā, and all the saintly persons could not satisfy the Lord by streams of excellent words, although such persons are very qualified, being in the mode of goodness. Then what is to be said of me? I am not at all qualified." Prabhupāda: śrī prahlāda uvāca brahmādayaḥ sura-gaṇā munaya 'tha siddhāḥ sattvaikatāna-gatāyo vacasāṁ pravāhaiḥ nārādhituṁ puru-guṇair adhunāpi pipruḥ kiṁ toṣṭum arhati sa me harir ugra-jāteḥ [SB 7.9.8] So ugra-jāteḥ means demonic family, passionate.
Ugra. There are three qualities within this material world. Therefore it is said guṇa-mayī. Daivī hy eṣā guṇa-mayī [Bg 7.14].
Guṇa-mayī means three guṇas, three modes of material nature: sattva-guṇa, rajo-guṇa and tamo-guṇa. So our mind is jumping. Everyone knows the nature of the mind—sometimes accepting one thing, again rejecting it. Saṅkalpa-vikalpa.
This is the quality of the mind or nature of the mind. Sometimes the mind is jumping over sattva-guṇa, sometimes on the rajo-guṇa, sometime on the tamo-guṇa. In this way we are getting different types of mentality. In this way, at the time of death the mentality which is just at the moment of leaving this body will carry me to a different body of sattva-guṇa, rajo-guṇa, tamo-guṇa.
This is the way of transmigration of the soul. Therefore we have to train up the mind until we get the another body. That is the art of living. So if you train up your mind simply to think of Kṛṣṇa, then you are safe.
Otherwise there is chance of accidents. Yaṁ yaṁ vāpi smaran bhāvaṁ tyajaty ante kalevaram [Bg 8.6]. At the time of leaving this body, if we have not practiced the mind to fix up at the lotus feet of Kṛṣṇa, then there is... [break] A particular type of body we get. So Prahlāda Mahārāja, although he does not belong to this platform of mental speculation... He is nitya-siddha.
He has no chance, because he's always thinking of Kṛṣṇa. [loud electrical noise] [aside:] What is that? Sa vai manaḥ... [noise again] Sa vai manaḥ kṛṣṇa-padāravindayor [SB 9.4.18]. Practice this very simple thing. Kṛṣṇa is here. We see the Deity daily and see the lotus feet of Kṛṣṇa.
