Bhagavad-gita As It Is Lectures

So those who are intelligent enough, they are not concerned with these four things, janma-mṛtyu-jarā-vyādhi (BG 13.9): birth, death and old age.

They are concerned to have a spiritual life, complete, full of bliss and full of knowledge, and that is possible when you enter into the spiritual planets. That will be explained.

Cintāmaṇi-prakara-sadmasu: "The houses are made of touchstone." Touchstone, perhaps you know touchstone. It's a . . . a small particle touchstone, if it is touched in the iron beam, it will at once becomes gold. Of course, I do not know if any one of you has seen this touchstone, but there is such a thing. So all the buildings are there of touchstone. Cintāmaṇi-prakara-sadmasu kalpa-vṛkṣa. The trees are desire tree. Whatever you like, can get. Here from mango tree, you get mango, and apple tree from, you get apple. But there any tree, anything you like, you can have. These are the some, some of the description of the Kṛṣṇaloka.

So best thing is not to try for elevate . . . for elevating ourselves in either of these material planet. Because in any material planet you enter, the same principles of miserable life . . . we are accustomed. We have been acclimatized to birth, death. We don't care. The modern scientist, they are very much proud of their advancement, but they have no solution of these unpleasant things. They cannot make anything which will check death or which will check disease or which will check old age. That is not possible. You can, you can manufacture something which will accelerate death, but you cannot manufacture anything which will stop death. That is not in your power.

So those who are intelligent enough, they are not concerned with these four things, janma-mṛtyu-jarā-vyādhi (BG 13.9): birth, death and old age.

They are concerned to have a spiritual life, complete, full of bliss and full of knowledge, and that is possible when you enter into the spiritual planets. That will be explained. So next, next verse it is stated:

ananya-cetāḥ satataṁ
yo māṁ smarati nityaśaḥ
tasyāhaṁ sulabhaḥ pārtha
nitya-yuktasya yoginaḥ
(BG 8.14)

Nitya-yuktasya yoginaḥ. Nitya-yukta means continuously in trance. He's the highest yogī, continuously thinking of Kṛṣṇa, always engaged in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. For him, ananya-cetāḥ . . . he does not divert his attention to this sort of process or that sort of yoga system or the jñāna system or dhyāna system. No. Ananya-cetāḥ. Simply the only one system: Kṛṣṇa. Ananya-cetāḥ. Ananya-cetāḥ means "without any deviation." He's not disturbed by anything. Simply Kṛṣṇa. Ananya-cetāḥ satatam. Satatam means anywhere and any time.
