Material life means simply to desire to enjoy. Of course, there is no enjoyment. That is . . . so if one hears rāsa-līlā from authoritative source, the result will be that he will be promoted to the transcendental platform of loving service to Kṛṣṇa, and the material disease, lusty desires, will be vanquished.

Actually, by hearing about rāsa-līlā the result will be that one will be, one will be raised to the platform of transcendental service, and the disease of lust within the heart—that is material disease—that will be completely vanquished. Hṛd-roga-kāmam apahinoti aciram. Aciram, very soon, they will be able to eradicate the deep-rooted lusty desires in the heart of material existence.

Material existence means lusty life. Kṛṣṇa-bhuliya jīva bhoga vāñchā kare (Prema-vivarta). Material life means simply to desire to enjoy. Of course, there is no enjoyment. That is . . . so if one hears rāsa-līlā from authoritative source, the result will be that he will be promoted to the transcendental platform of loving service to Kṛṣṇa, and the material disease, lusty desires, will be vanquished.

But they do not hear from the authoritative source. Some professional reciters they hear—therefore they remain in the material existence of lusty affairs, and sometimes they turn to be sahajiyā. When Kṛṣṇa has connection with so many women . . . you know that in Vṛndāvana, the yugala-bhajana—one becomes Kṛṣṇa and one becomes Rādhā. That is their theory. And so many things are going on.

Therefore we instruct that first of all read the nine chapters (cantos) very carefully, and then . . . there are so many nice instruction, but they do not hear about this nice instruction, ajāmila-śraddhā caritra. At least, picked up, some incidences, they should hear. So:

ayaṁ hi kṛta-nirveśo
janma-koṭy-aṁhasām api
yad vyājahāra vivaśo
nāma svasty-ayanaṁ hareḥ
(SB 6.2.7)

The charge of Viṣṇudūtas for the Yamadūta was that they did not know whom to arrest and whom not to arrest. Therefore he was criticise Yamarāja is meant for arresting the criminals, sinful persons. But these Yamadūtas came to arrest Ajāmila, who was already relieved from all sinful actions simply by chanting "Nārāyaṇa." That was not known to them. So in order to criticize them that, "You do not know where to go and where not to go," they described in so many ways.
