Directly we cannot appreciate what is that spiritual fragment, particle, which is within this body. Because the length and breadth of that spirit soul is impossible to be measured by our material instruments, although the scientists say that we can measure it. Anyway, even it is possible, first of all, you have to see where the soul is situated. Then you can attempt to measure it.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Negation. &amp;quot;All right. I shall not do this, which will produce reaction.&amp;quot; That, I mean to say, forceful negation will not stand. &amp;quot;I shall not do this.&amp;quot; Or, for example, take the small incident of our life, eating. Now, because eating has reaction, because whatever I am eating I have to repay for that... Either you eat vegetable or flesh, that doesn&amp;#039;t matter. &amp;quot;Then let me... I shall not eat.&amp;quot; Oh, that cannot be. How you cannot eat? You cannot do it. If you have to live, then you have to eat.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Without any separate endeavor. It is so nice. And if you try artificially to stop, to become silent from material activities, it will not be possible. You may meditate for fifteen minutes or for fifteen hundred minutes or fifteen thousand years, it will not be possible. The mind is very strong. Mind&amp;#039;s business is to accept and reject, accept and reject. You accept something, you reject something. Better thing is that we accept something Kṛṣṇa conscious under the direction of disciplic succession. That is your, should be, the aim of life, and you are successful. You have to accept something. Simply by rejecting, it will not help you. But you have to accept something. That acceptance is Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Simply negation will not help you. You must have some positive engagement.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

They are afraid of the life of variegatedness. Because they have got a very bitter experience of this life of variegatedness, therefore they want to make a negation of this variegatedness and they want to turn themselves into the impersonal feature. So these things are there. So vīta-rāga. So one has to give up this attachment and detachment also.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Just like you do not know what it is. You say simply &amp;quot;It is not this,&amp;quot; that&amp;#039;s all. But you do not know what it is. That is not concrete definition. If I say, &amp;quot;This is not watch. This is not book. This is not light. This is not microphone.&amp;quot; I can go on thousands of years saying, &amp;quot;This is not, this is not, this is not,&amp;quot; but that does not mean it is this. And if you know it immediately say, &amp;quot;It is glass, spectacle.&amp;quot; That means you do not know it. Simply negation, &amp;quot;This is not, this is not, this is not,&amp;quot; is not the realization of the Absolute. You must give concrete idea of the Absolute. That is transcendental meditation.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Therefore this process, that sarvopādhi-vinirmuktaṁ tat-paratvena nirmalam... ([[Vanisource:CC Madhya 19.170|CC Madhya 19.170]]). When you become free from all designation... As Caitanya Mahāprabhu said—I was going to explain—that &amp;quot;I am not a brāhmaṇa, I am not a śūdra, I am not a kṣatriya, I am not a vaiśya, I am not...&amp;quot; This is negation. Then what you are? Caitanya Mahāprabhu says, gopī-bhartuḥ pada-kamalayor dāsa-dāsānudāsaḥ ([[Vanisource:CC Madhya 13.80|CC Madhya 13.80]]). There is activities. As soon as we accept dāsa-dāsānudāsaḥ, there must be activities. A dāsa has got activities. So dāsa, when these activities are there, then hṛṣīkeṇa hṛṣīkeśa-sevanaṁ bhaktir ucyate ([[Vanisource:CC Madhya 19.170|CC Madhya 19.170]]), that is called bhakti.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
