Srimad-Bhagavatam Lectures

Narottama dāsa Ṭhākura says, "No more desire. Simply surrender to Kṛṣṇa." If you go on desiring . . . you can desire. You are full at liberty. But desire means you have to accept different types of body. It is . . . you cannot make any permanent settlement. That is not possible. And that is also your fault. Because . . . suppose you are posted now in a high post, Mr. Nixon, but you cannot keep the standard; you'll commit some sins. Next life you'll have to become something else. This is going on. Kabhu svarge kabhu naya.

God, He's equal to everyone. Samo 'haṁ sarva-bhūteṣu (BG 9.29). There is no discrimination. How He can be God? God has not made all these different types of bodies. You have made; we have made. I want to become a dog, God has given me facilities, "Take this dog's body." Prakṛteḥ kriyamāṇāni . . . (BG 3.27). He immediately orders material nature, "Give him a dog's body." That's all. If I want to have a tiger's body, nature will give me, "Take, tiger's body." So it depends on my work, sva-karmabhiḥ. But either I'll have a tiger's body or dog's body or a Brahmā's body or ant's body, all of us are fallen, patita. Patita. Patita means fallen. Because this is not the proper life. You'll have to change. Sometimes you are Brahmā, sometimes you are hog. Up and down. Up and down.

Therefore one who is intelligent, he has no more . . . Āra nā koriho mane āśā (Prema-bhakti-candrikā). Narottama dāsa Ṭhākura says, "No more desire. Simply surrender to Kṛṣṇa." If you go on desiring . . . you can desire. You are full at liberty. But desire means you have to accept different types of body. It is . . . you cannot make any permanent settlement. That is not possible. And that is also your fault. Because . . . suppose you are posted now in a high post, Mr. Nixon, but you cannot keep the standard; you'll commit some sins. Next life you'll have to become something else. This is going on. Kabhu svarge kabhu naya.
