Bhagavad-gita As It Is Lectures

When we give up these designated life and come to our actual life, that is called mukti. Muktir hitvānyathā rūpaṁ. Because you have got now designated dress. I am identifying myself as human being, as cats, as dog, as American, as European, as Australian. This is all designation. When you come to the real understanding, ahaṁ brahmāsmi, "I am part and parcel of God," that is your real understanding, and at that time you become happy. Yes. Just like a diseased man, when he gets back his healthy life, he becomes very happy. Similarly, as soon as we become freed from this designation life, we come to the real life of spiritual life, then we become,

na śocati na kāṅkṣati samaḥ sarveṣu bhūteṣu (BG 18.54) Then you can see everyone in the equal level.

It is not the problem that after this body I get another nice body. We are not preaching that kind of thing. We are preaching that you have got spiritual body, you have got your spiritual identity, brahma-bhūtaḥ. You revive that spiritual consciousness, you become liberated from this repetition of taking birth and death. That is our propaganda. We are not concerned this body or that body. This body or that body, they are all material body. So not to remain in material body, but to revive your . . . just like not to remain covered by the disease of fever. Sometimes we get fever, we become covered. So get out of this feverish condition and remain in your healthy condition. That is called mukti.

muktir hitva anyathā rūpaṁ
sva-rūpeṇa vyavasthitiḥ
(SB 2.10.6)

This is called mukti. Liberation means . . . now we are living under designations. So when we give up these designated life and come to our actual life, that is called mukti. Muktir hitvānyathā rūpaṁ. Because you have got now designated dress. I am identifying myself as human being, as cats, as dog, as American, as European, as Australian. This is all designation. When you come to the real understanding, ahaṁ brahmāsmi, "I am part and parcel of God," that is your real understanding, and at that time you become happy. Yes. Just like a diseased man, when he gets back his healthy life, he becomes very happy. Similarly, as soon as we become freed from this designation life, we come to the real life of spiritual life, then we become,

na śocati na kāṅkṣati
samaḥ sarveṣu bhūteṣu
(BG 18.54)

Then you can see everyone in the equal level.
