"This is our position, that I am part and parcel of God. God is happy, ānanda-maya. So part and parcel should be ānanda-maya. But, manaḥ ṣaṣṭhānīndriyāṇi prakṛti-sthāni karṣati. I have come to this material world. I am creating so many isms by the mind and acting with the senses, and there is struggle. This is the . . . everything is there. Manaḥ ṣaṣṭhānīndriyāṇi prakṛti-sthāni karṣati (BG 15.7). Prakṛti-sthāni, being placed in this material atmosphere, he's simply struggling. Therefore we are giving the solution, "You give up this struggle. Go back to home, back to Godhead."
