Lectures

Bhagavad-gita As It Is Lectures

Out of the three, either he gets his birth in a brāhmin family or in a rich family or in a family where people are . . . the members, members are highly advanced in the yoga, so Kṛṣṇa says the third one, third one is to be considered more fortunate, third one, who has got his birth in the family of a yogī. Because one who has got his birth in a rich family, he may be misled. And naturally it so happens.

Yoginām means either devotee or meditator or great philosopher—in their family. Yoginām eva kule bhavati dhīmatām. Dhīmatām means very intelligent. These transcendentalist, either philosopher or meditator or great devotees of the Lord, they are considered the, I mean to say, highest top of the human society, dhīmatām. Etad dhi durlabhataraṁ loke janma yad īdṛśam.

Now, out of the three, either he gets his birth in a brāhmin family or in a rich family or in a family where people are . . . the members, members are highly advanced in the yoga, so Kṛṣṇa says the third one, third one is to be considered more fortunate, third one, who has got his birth in the family of a yogī. Because one who has got his birth in a rich family, he may be misled. And naturally it so happens. When a man gets riches, silver spoon in mouth, he thinks, "Oh, I have got so much money, my paternal property. Let me enjoy it." Oh. So sometimes he becomes a drunkard, a prostitute hunter, a, I mean to say, rogue. He becomes.

Similarly, in a brāhmiṇ family also . . . just like we have seen in India, there are many persons who are born in a big, I mean to say, very pious family. But because he has taken his birth in a pious family, he thinks, "I am brāhmiṇ. Oh, what I have to do? I am very pious family." They mistake in that way. So they degrade.
