Karmaṇā, according to my karma, he offers me some body. Daiva-netreṇa. Jantur deha upapatti. Kāraṇaṁ guṇa-saṅgo &#039;sya sad-asad-janma-yoniṣu ([[Vanisource:BG 13.22 &lt;ins style=&quot;font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;(1972)&lt;/ins&gt;|BG 13.22]]). Karma... Guṇa-karma-vibhāgaśaḥ ([[Vanisource:BG 4.13 &lt;ins style=&quot;font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;&quot;&gt;(1972)&lt;/ins&gt;|BG 4.13]]). Guṇa and karma... Just like here, in the practical world, you can work as an engineer, karma, if you have got the qualification. If you have got the qualification of a shopkeeper, you cannot act as engineer. That is not possible. If you have got the qualification of a teacher, educationist, then you can become a teacher.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;

If He is sama—sama means neutral—then how we find different grades of people or different grades of species of life? That is samatā. Now, I will give you a crude example. Suppose I am a shopkeeper. I have got different varieties of goods. Now, if you pay me less, then I can supply you inferior quality of goods. Another customer is paying me a good amount; then I will supply you superior quality of goods. Now, I supply to some customer inferior quality of goods; to another customer I supply superior quality of goods. Is there any partiality? No. That is not partiality. So God gives you result of your actions. Samo &amp;#039;ham. He is impartial. If you do good acts, then you get good result. If you do bad acts, then you get bad result. That is samo &amp;#039;haṁ sarva... This is the common, common formula. The Lord says, samo &amp;#039;haṁ sarva-bhūteṣu na me dveṣyo &amp;#039;sti na priyaḥ. It is not that somebody is suffering because God is envious upon him. No, God is not envious. He is suffering his own activities.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Samaḥ sarveṣu bhūteṣu. Samaḥ. Samatā. Samatā means equality. Where? Brahma-bhūtaḥ prasannātmā ([[Vanisource:BG 18.54|BG 18.54]]). When one is self-realized, ahaṁ brahmāsmi... &amp;quot;I am not this body. I am not Christian, I am not Hindu, I am not black, I am not white, I am not fat, I am not thin. I am Brahman.&amp;quot; Brahmāsmi. That is called Brahman. &amp;quot;I am spirit soul, part and parcel of God. My only business is to serve God, because I am part and parcel of God.&amp;quot; Just like I have given several times: the part and parcel of my body is this finger. What is the duty? To serve the whole body. I ask the finger, &amp;quot;Come here immediately. Do this.&amp;quot; &amp;quot;Yes.&amp;quot; Natural. If I am part and parcel of God, then my only duty is to serve God. That&amp;#039;s all. I have no other duty.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;div class=&amp;quot;heading&amp;quot;&amp;gt;Samatā means not that brāhmaṇa is equal to the dog. No, not that. But he sees that brāhmaṇa is also a spirit soul, and the dog is also a spirit soul.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/div&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span class=&amp;quot;link&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[[Vanisource:Lecture on SB 3.25.21 -- Bombay, November 21, 1974|Lecture on SB 3.25.21 -- Bombay, November 21, 1974]]: &amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&amp;lt;div style=&amp;quot;display: inline;&amp;quot; class=&amp;quot;text&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p style=&amp;quot;display: inline;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;So prasaṅgam ajaraṁ pāśam ātmanaḥ. Ātmā is the same, spirit soul. He has got the same form. But they are different dresses. They are having different dresses. Just like we are sitting so many. As human beings, we are the same, but we have got different dresses. Similarly, ātmā, the soul, the spirit soul, is the same. There is no difference. Therefore paṇḍitāḥ sama-darśinaḥ. One who knows what is the form of ātmā, he sees... Vidyā-vinaya-sampanne brāhmaṇe gavi hastini... sama-darśinaḥ ([[Vanisource:BG 5.18|BG 5.18]]). He sees the animal, the cats and dogs, and a learned brāhmaṇa-sama-darśinaḥ. Samatā means not that brāhmaṇa is equal to the dog. No, not that. But he sees that brāhmaṇa is also a spirit soul, and the dog is also a spirit soul.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;So this conditioned life... Dog has got a conditioned life, I have got a conditioned life, you have got a conditioned life. We are all conditioned, under different... And according to the condition, we have got different bodies. Karmaṇā daiva-netreṇa ([[Vanisource:SB 3.31.1|SB 3.31.1]]). This conditioned life, different forms of life, we have got daiva-netreṇa, by superior, superior administration. Netreṇa means netṛtva, leadership. So superior leadership. Just like Yamarāja. Karmaṇā, according to my karma, he offers me some body. Daiva-netreṇa. Jantur deha upapatti. Kāraṇaṁ guṇa-saṅgo &amp;#039;sya sad-asad-janma-yoniṣu ([[Vanisource:BG 13.22|BG 13.22]]). Karma... Guṇa-karma-vibhāgaśaḥ ([[Vanisource:BG 4.13|BG 4.13]]). Guṇa and karma... Just like here, in the practical world, you can work as an engineer, karma, if you have got the qualification. If you have got the qualification of a shopkeeper, you cannot act as engineer. That is not possible. If you have got the qualification of a teacher, educationist, then you can become a teacher.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
