Nectar Drops from Srila Prabhupada
"Everyone is being carried away by the waves of this material nature: "Eat, drink, be merry and enjoy." But that is not siddhi. That is imperfection. If you are carried away by the waves of these material necessities, then it is not siddhi. One has to become siddha. Siddha means one who understand that "What I am and what is my duty." That is siddha, perfect. Not. . . That is the beginning of perfection. So manuṣyāṇāṁ sahasreṣu kaścid yatati siddhate (BG 7.3). That siddha, perfection of life, is also not for everyone. Somebody out of millions. Kṛṣṇa said, yatatām api siddhānām: "Those who are siddhas, those who have attained perfection, if they are trying to understand Me, maybe one or two may understand.""
