| "Simple life means you produce your food and you produce your cloth so you dress yourself nicely, you eat yourself nicely, keep yourself fit, and glorify the Lord. This is one way of life. And the other way of life, that 'We don't care for the Lord. Let us enjoy the senses to the topmost capacity and be happy'. So this way of life will never make you happy. You will simply go on struggling. This is one way of life. Another way of life, that the human life is meant for God realization. That is Vedānta philosophy. Athāto brahma jijñāsā (Vedānta-sūtra 1.1.1). Now, by evolutionary process, we have come to the human form of life, it is meant for asking, 'What is my constitutional position? Am I this body, or I am something else?'"
