For want of real knowledge, ātma-jñāna . . . first of all one has to learn actually what he is. Is he this body or something else? That is the beginning. But they do not know. He thinks that, "I am body," deha. And because from this body, I have got relationship with my wife, "Oh, she is my great friend," and the children, "They are my soldiers. They will protect me." Dehāpatya-kalatrādiṣu ātma-sainyeṣu. He is very safe. "I have got good wife. I have got good children. They will save me.".

Śva-viḍ-varāhoṣṭra-kharaiḥ ([[Vanisource:SB 2.3.19|SB 2.3.19]]). He forgets his own business, that he has got this human form of life to understand, "What I am? Why I am suffering? What is the remedy? How to relieve . . . how to become relieved this problem?" He has forgotten that. Simply he is busy earning money. Divā cārthehayā rājan kuṭumba-bharaṇena vā ([[Vanisource:SB 2.1.3|SB 2.1.3]]). These karmīs, they are thinking that . . .

For want of real knowledge, ātma-jñāna . . . first of all one has to learn actually what he is. Is he this body or something else? That is the beginning. But they do not know. He thinks that, "I am body," deha. And because from this body, I have got relationship with my wife, "Oh, she is my great friend," and the children, "They are my soldiers. They will protect me." Dehāpatya-kalatrādiṣu ātma-sainyeṣu. He is very safe. "I have got good wife. I have got good children. They will save me." Nobody will save you, sir. When death will come, you have to give your own account. If you are going to be next life a dog, not your wife, children or nation or community or anyone will save you. No. Nobody can save you.
