1. Take advantage of this Vedic literature

    Kardama Muni is teaching Sankhya philosophy, Krsna is teaching Bhagavad-gita, and if we do not take advantage of these things, then again we are in the oblivion. Again this cosmic manifestation will be annihilated, and we will remain in slumbering state for many millions and millions of years. Again there will be creation: bhutva bhutva praliyate [Bg 8.19]. This is the mode of creation. So we should take advantage of this Vedic literature. Tad-vijnanartham sa gurum evabhigacchet [Mundaka Upanisad
    1.2.12].

    Everyone should approach the bona fide spiritual master and take lessons from the Vedic literature. Then this life will be successful. We are rotting in this material world. Bhutva bhutva praliyate [Bg 8.19], getting one short type of body, live there for some time, again it is annihilated, again another body.
