But here in the Bhagavad-gītā, here is a suggestion. Suppose a man lives for another fifty years and he... So nobody tries to elevate himself in the spiritual ideas for fifty years. That&amp;#039;s a very good idea. But even for ten years or five years one sincerely tries for this practice, mayy arpita-mano-buddhir... ([[Vanisource:BG 8.7|BG 8.7]]) It is simply a question of practice. And that practice can be very easily possible by the devotional process, śravaṇaṁ. Śravaṇaṁ. The easiest process is to hear.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:śravaṇaṁ kīrtanaṁ viṣṇoḥ&lt;br /&gt;
:smaraṇaṁ pāda-sevanam&lt;br /&gt;
:arcanaṁ vandanaṁ dāsyaṁ&lt;br /&gt;
:sakhyam ātma-nivedanam&lt;br /&gt;
:([[Vanisource:SB 7.5.23|SB 7.5.23]])&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;These nine processes. So the easiest process is simply hearing. Hearing of this Bhagavad-gītā or Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam from the realized person, that will train up oneself, one, into the thoughts of the Supreme Being twenty-four hours, which will lead one ultimately, anta-kāle, to remember the Supreme Lord, and thus leaving this body, he will have a spiritual body, a spiritual body, just fit for association with the Lord.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

You cannot say that &amp;quot;After leaving this room, I shall live in the sky.&amp;quot; Similarly, after leaving this body, if you go to Kṛṣṇa in the spiritual kingdom, your individuality will be there, but you&amp;#039;ll have that spiritual body. When there is spiritual body there is no perplexities. Just like your body is different from the body of the aquatics. The aquatics, they have no disturbance in the water because their body is made like that. They can live there peacefully. You cannot live. Similarly, the fishes, if you take them out of the water, they cannot live. Similarly, because you are spirit soul, you cannot live peacefully in this material world. This is foreign. But as soon as you enter into the spiritual world, your life is eternal, blissful and full of knowledge, real peace. Tyaktvā dehaṁ punar janma naiti ([[Vanisource:BG 4.9|BG 4.9]]). Kṛṣṇa says, &amp;quot;After leaving this body, he does not come to this perplexities of material world.&amp;quot; Mām eti, &amp;quot;He comes to Me.&amp;quot; &amp;quot;Me&amp;quot; means His kingdom, His paraphernalia, His associates, everything.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

He said therefore, aśocyān anvaśocas tvaṁ prajñā-vādāṁś ca bhāṣase ([[Vanisource:BG 2.11|BG 2.11]]). &amp;quot;My dear Arjuna, you are talking like a very intelligent man, but you are lamenting on the subject matter which is not at all lamentable.&amp;quot; What is that? Gatāsūn agatāsūṁś ca nānuśocanti paṇḍitāḥ. Paṇḍitāḥ means one who is learned. This body, either in living condition of dead condition, it is not the subject matter of lamentation. This is the first education of spiritual life, that this body is actually dead body already. So long the soul is there, it is moving. So when the soul leaves this body and accepts another body, the body was already dead, a lump of matter, and now it is left aside, and the soul has gone to another body. So it is a lump of matter at the present moment, then, after death or after leaving, after the soul has gone from the body, it is the same lump of matter. So lump of matter, where is the cause of lamentation or jubilation? It is a lump of matter. This understanding is first required.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
