When We Are Washed Of All Dirty Things, Then We Can Fly Again

[Gavin Swinden]

(So how it will be possible to become free and again fly unless he's taken and washed all these dirty things? Then he can fly. Freedom)

 

Svarūpa Dāmodara: "That's the basic point that I was driving at, that we shouldn't be too much entangled in this material . . ."

 

Prabhupāda: "They must be entangled. They are trying in the false way, wrong way. He is suffering on account of being placed in this material atmosphere, and he's trying to adjust things with this material . . . that means he's becoming more and more entangled.

 

Sometimes we have seen a fly falls down in the bee honey and he becomes entangled. So how it will be possible to become free and again fly unless he's taken and washed all these dirty things? Then he can fly. Freedom. And so long he'll try to adjust things in the prakṛti-sthāni (material atmosphere), that is nonsense, all nonsense."
