Prabhupāda: But you have no sufficient warm cloth, so you are affected? That you must arrange. You must take care of your health. Yuktāhāra-vihārasya yogo bhavati siddhi . . . (BG 6.17). In the Bhagavad-gītā it is said, yuktāhāra. You should take food just to maintain your health nicely. Similarly, other necessities of body must be taken care of. If you become diseased, then how you can execute Kṛṣṇa consciousness? Just like Brahmānanda could not go today. So we must be careful. We should not eat more or less. Better eat less than eat more. You'll not die by eating less, but you may die eating more. People die for overeating, not for undereating.
This should be the principle. The medical science always forbids not to eat more than you require. Voracious eating is the cause of diabetes, and undernourishment is the cause of tuberculosis. This is the medical science. So we should not take under, neither more. In children case, they can commit the mistake of taking more, but adult, they cannot commit mistake taking more. Children, they can digest. All day they are playing. So anyway, we should take care of our health also.
Sanātana Gosvāmī, he was suffering from itches very much, and Caitanya Mahāprabhu was embracing him. So the . . . the itches were wet itches. There are two kinds of itches: wet and dry. Sometimes itching spot is dry, and sometimes it is wet. After itching, it becomes wet. So Sanātana Gosvāmī's body was all covered with wet itches, and Caitanya Mahāprabhu was embracing him. So the wetness, the moisture, was sticking to the body of Caitanya Mahāprabhu. So he felt it very much ashamed that, "I am suffering from itches, and Caitanya Mahāprabhu is embracing, and the wet thing is smearing over the body. How much unfortunate."
So he decided that, "Tomorrow I shall commit suicide instead of allowing me to be embraced by Caitanya Mahāprabhu." So next day Caitanya Mahāprabhu inquired that, "You have decided to commit suicide. So do you think this body is your?" So he was silent. Caitanya Mahāprabhu said that, "You have already dedicated this body to Me. How you can kill it?" Similarly . . . of course, from that day, his itches were all cured and . . .
But this is the decision, that our body, those who are Kṛṣṇa conscious, those who are working for Kṛṣṇa, they should not think that the body belongs to him. It is already dedicated to Kṛṣṇa. So it must be kept very carefully, without any neglect. Just like you are taking care of the temple because it is Kṛṣṇa's place. Similarly, we should not take overcare, but some care we should take so that we may not fall diseased.
Anyway . . . so Kuntīdevī says, yeṣāṁ na ca anyad bhavataḥ padāmbujāt. This is called full dependence. In the śaraṇāgati, in the surrender process, there are six things. The six things is that completely, one of the . . . completely dependent on Kṛṣṇa. Ānukūlyasya saṅkalpaḥ (Hari-bhakti-vilāsa 11.676). The first śaraṇāgati is to accept everything favorable for Kṛṣṇa's service. Ānukūlyam. Ānukūlyena kṛṣṇānuśīlanaṁ bhaktir uttamā (CC Madhya 19.167).
Devotional . . . first-class bhakti means accepting everything which is favorable for devotional service. And prātikūlyasya varjanam: and reject everything which is unfavorable to the procedure of Kṛṣṇa consciousness. So we forbid that, "You don't do this," because they are unfavorable. And we say something, "You do this, chant Hare Kṛṣṇa sixteen rounds." That is favorable. Śaraṇāgati means to give up the unfavorable things and to accept the favorable. Ānukūlyasya saṅkalpaḥ prātikūlyasya varjanam. And believe that "Kṛṣṇa will give me protection." Full faith. And to count oneself as one of the servants of Kṛṣṇa. In this way, śaraṇāgati.
So here Kuntī says that, "If You think, my dear Kṛṣṇa, now we are well established, we have got our kingdom back, so everything is nicely done, so You want to leave us, that is not a very good proposal. Because we are not free as yet. Because we have killed so many kings, all their relatives and friends, they're also planning to come and again fight with us. This is our position." Parāyaṇaṁ rājasu yojitāṁhasām. "They are still engaged. So You don't think that we are already all free from all dangerous condition. We are not. And we have no other protection except Your lotus feet. This is our position." So indirectly she was asking Kṛṣṇa, "Do not leave us.
Don't think that we are safe now. We are not safe. Without Your protection, we are always unsafe." This should be the position of the devotee. We are actually in a dangerous position, this material world. At any time, māyā will catch. At any time. As soon as we are a little inattentive . . . "Now I have done my duty. Now let me take rest little." No, there is no rest. We must be always alert.
