720920 Lecture - Srila Prabhupada Speaks a Nectar Drop in Los Angeles
| Nectar Drops from Srila Prabhupada |
| "According to karma, there are different species of forms of life, but they have got all facilities to live. That is God's creation. Mayādhyakṣeṇa prakṛtiḥ sūyate sa-carācaram (BG 9.10). The direction is there, that this living entity wanted a body to swim in the sea very jubilantly, so now he has got the body of a fish. So let him live very peacefully. That is God's mercy. You take very much pleasure with that surf... What is called, in the sea? Devotee: Surfboard. Prabhupāda: Surfboard? Yes. (laughter) So if you increase your engage..., "How I shall be swimming and enjoy this sport whole day and night?" then, then Kṛṣṇa will give you the body of a fish. (laughter) Yes. He is very kind. And you will very nicely live in the sea, always swimming without any difficulty. Every life. As you increase your propensity for a certain type of activities, nature is ready immediately: 'Take this body. Why you are anxious? Take this body'. Similarly, if you become anxious to have a body like Kṛṣṇa, that is also ready. Now it is your choice." |
