Beast 1333 Krishna Consciousness
[Intro: Srila Prabhupada]
After death, he cannot take away the millions of dollars with him next life. But they do not know that there is next life. Next life he may become a dog and what this millions of dollars will help him? That he does not know, therefore tapo divyam. Take austerity, penances for reviving your original consciousness - Krishna consciousness. For that purpose, you undergo austerity. Otherwise, if you simply undergo austerities, penances, hardship for some material gain, thеn it is waste of time, defеat, parābhava. Parābhavas tāvad abodha-jātaḥ
