Prabhupāda: They take risk, so much risk, for earning money and sense enjoyment. The thief, the burglar, they risk their life. They go to steal to a man's house, and it is known that as soon as he is known, "He has come," the man, the proprietor of the house, may immediately shoot him. That risk he takes. So not only the burglar and thieves, every one of us. It is stated, padaṁ padaṁ yad vipadām (SB 10.14.58): in every step there is danger. Every step. We are running our motorcars very fast, seventy miles, hundred miles speed, but any moment there can be great danger.
So actually there cannot be any peace in material life. That is not possible. Samāśritā ye pada-pallava-plavam (SB 10.14.58). We have to take, therefore, shelter of the lotus feet of the Lord. If we want to be happy, if we want to be peaceful, then this is the only way. And the . . . Śva-viḍ-varāhoṣṭra-khara . . . and in the previous verse, kiṁ grāme paśavo 'pare, na khādanti na mehanti (SB 2.3.18). This eating, sleeping, mating, so it is criticized: "Do the cats and dogs and the camels, they do not eat?" They also eat. They enjoy. As the camel is enjoying thorny twigs, his enjoyment, that is his enjoyment.
Na khādanti na mehanti. Now, another enjoyment: sex life, discharge. Na mehanti. Again it is described. These are very terse criticism. You see? A fact. Sex enjoyment means you discharge your semina. Your thing, not others'. And it is said by medical science, some pounds of blood makes one drop of semina. That means suppose you allow . . . if you allow somebody to take your blood, pounds of blood, would you like to do that? Unless it is . . . nowadays, blood bank, there is going on. But anyone, if he wants to take your blood, you will protest. But our enjoyment is by giving our own blood.
Tul . . . there is a Hindi poet, din kā dakinī rāt kā bāghinī pālak pālak rahu cuse, duniyā sab bhora hoye, ghara ghara bāghinī pūṣe It is actual for the materialistic person that there is an animal, din ka ḍākinī, at . . . and during daytime she is witch, and at night she is tigress. So din kā dakinī rāt kā bāghinī pālak pālak rahu cuse. The witches, they also, by their black art, they suck the blood of children. Do you know that? There are witches. You know? I am asking Svarūpa Dāmodara. The kāmākhya witches, from the black art. That Pūtanā was like that. They suck the blood of children by some mantra. So din kā ḍākinī, rāt kā bāghinī. It is pointing out to one's wife, during daytime she is ḍākinī, witches, and at night she is tigress.
So Tulasī dāsa says that . . . Tulasī dāsa life is very interesting. Therefore he had very bad experience of his wife. Everyone. So bāghinī. Nobody keeps a tigress to suck one's blood, but Tulasī dāsa says, duniyā sab bhora hoye. The whole world, being mad, they keep one tigress. Pālak pālak rahu cuṣe: in every moment, sucking blood. This criticism is for the materialistic person. Those who are spiritually advancing, this criticism does not apply. For materialistic person, this agent of sucking blood is their happiness. Is their happiness. That is the real fact.
