To be performed on the earth. It should be taken in the specific sense of Bharatkhand. Because to take birth as a human in Bharatvarsha, even the deities have prayed. It is said in the Shrimad Bhagavatam that, "Until now we have enjoyed the pleasures of heaven, hereafter, if of our previously performed sacrifices, discourses, and auspicious deeds, any merit remains, then by its influence, may we in this Bharatvarsha obtain a human birth with remembrance of God."

Tap to open in glossary → the soul residing in the human body alone can achieve extensive liberation. It can become highly enriched with spiritual knowledge and wisdom. It speaks what is rightly known, it sees what is rightly known, it knows the coming day, it knows this world and the next world. From a mortal body, it desires to become immortal. In this way, it becomes enriched and prosperous. While on the other hand, animals only have knowledge of eating and drinking. They do not speak of what is known, nor do they see it. They do not know the coming day, nor do they know this world or the next world. In the Bhagavatam, even the deities have praised the good fortune of humans, saying, "Oh! Those jivas who in Bharatvarsha have obtained a human birth that is useful in the service of God, what merit must they have performed? Or has Bhagwan Shri Hari Hari An avatãr of Bhagvãn.

Tap to open in glossary → By whom birth has been obtained as humans in the arena of Bharat, which is suitable for the service of Mukunda, for which we also desire. Compared to the deities, the human body is precious. The human body is precious. Humans have a lingering desire in their minds to get pleasures like those of the deities. That is the human's desire. But from God's perspective, and from the deities' perspective, the human body is more precious than the body of a deity. From God's perspective. How much greatness Maharaj... the scriptures have described its greatness. That human body, if in useless pursuits and just wandering around, a person wastes it, then God does not give him a human body a second time. God gets annoyed with him, that "what I gave was just wasted directly." Wasted it. In the human birth, what we have achieved, we should calculate that. What is to be achieved, we should target that. Just eating, drinking, and talking and interacting with others, if one spends the human birth in that, then how great a loss it is said to be. By no other means can a human birth be obtained. Liberation may be obtained, but a human birth cannot be obtained. The human birth is that precious. In the Bhagavatam, even the deities have praised the good fortune of humans. In the fifth canto or elsewhere, the topic comes up: 'Gayanti devah kila gitakani'. If a human birth occurs in someone's home, if this jiva gets a human body, then the deities clap and sing songs, that "Oh! Look at his fortune, he got a human body." Like getting a visa to America. So, very much people those constantly desire... hope that "may we get a visa to America, may we get America." So, this one got the visa to America, see! In that way, all the deities thus in their minds constantly desire that "he got a human body. We were saying for so long," "applied ten times and rejected ten times, still God did not give a human body." "And to this one, He gave it for free." The human body. So, the human body is that precious. Its use should be made meaningful. If one achieves the liberation of one's soul, then that is plenty. In the Bhagavatam, even the deities have praised the good fortune of humans, saying, "Oh! Those jivas who in Bharatvarsha, useful in the service of God, have obtained such a human birth, what merit must they have performed? Or has Bhagwan Shri Hari Hari An avatãr of Bhagvãn.

Tap to open in glossary → For that good fortune... they wonder whether God has become pleased with him or is it some merit of his? And for what reason has God become pleased with them? And he also described the importance of the human birth. Yes. 'Mukundasevopayikam'. In the service of God, if one wants to be of any use to God, then one comes into a human birth. Of what use can one be to God in other births? 'Mukundasevopayikam' 'Spruha hi nah' - we also have a great desire. God says so. Those deities say so. For that good fortune, even we constantly hope. Oh, the greatness of the human birth is boundless. Because even we deities desire a human body.

Even then, the work is fully done. It may happen in the goal, and if by chance it has not happened in the goal, but stability comes in the means, then also it is fulfilled. Then God, you see, He holds him by the arm. But if there is no consistency in the means itself, what means he is performing, whether he is doing anything to please God or not, no consistency... if he does, he does it one day, and one day he does a heap of it, then for five years he does not even look at it. He does like that. Still, yes. So today I was having many thoughts, I said we want to give a project to everyone on 'Genius'. Want to give a project on 'Genius'. Who is called a genius? Is a genius born or does one become a genius? Is the action called genius or is the person called genius? Can an institution be a genius or not? Such a project on 'Genius', to those who are very intellectual and go with Google, I want to give it to all of them. That "go find this." To find it from Google. In Google, everything is available nowadays, except for God. God must also be available, heaps of photos of God must be coming there, right? In Google. Perform the bhakti bhakti Devotion to Bhagvãn.

It is said in the Bhagavatam that, "I am Bhagwan Himself, the Lord of Prakriti and Purush Purush 1) An akshar-mukta selected by Akshar-Brahm to ‘impregnate’ Prakruti for the creation process, from which countless pairs of Pradhãn and Purush are formed for the creation and sustenance of each brahmãnd. 2) Purush half of the Pradhãn-Purush pair, ‘conceived’ by Mul-Purush and Mul-Prakruti for the creation and sustenance of each brahmãnd. 3) Taken to be masculine in nature, Purush is the controller of Prakruti, and is also distinct from her. He is indivisible, without a beginning, and without an end. He is self-luminous, omniscient, imperishable, satya, kshetragna, and the cause of all the activities that possess a form.

As long as 'Natyantiki muktirna mrutyuhasahayam' Except for God, there is no ultimate liberation, and no escape from death, one is not released from birth and death. Only by this refuge does one go, yes. True. As long as this jiva does not love My Vasudev form, until then he is not released from the bondage of the body. O King! May you be blessed, ask of Me whatever desire you have, We can give you everything except moksha. The deities said to Muchukund. The deities became pleased with Muchukund Maharaj. Muchukund Maharaj was highly powerful. He went to help the deities, and the deities won with his help. Then they said, "Ask, ask." If someone has done something, we should give to him, brother. Just like that, do not act stingy. If he has done work, then we have to give him something, right? So they said, "Ask, ask, you." The deities are not that stingy. So they said, "Ask." He said, "I have all of this." With whose help the deities win, what can those deities give to him? "So I have all of this, but I have one thing remaining, grant me moksha." Then the deities shook their heads, "That cannot be done by us." "For that, you have to go to God, it cannot be done by us." "It cannot be done by any of us, if you want something of this world, we can give you more," "if you have it, we can add more, but" "moksha cannot be done by us." Then God handed over that charge to the Sadhu, "Go, you grant moksha." So He gave it to the devotee of God as well. The deities do not have the wealth, that wealth, Bhagwan Maharaj gave to the Sadhu and the devotees of God. It is said so.
