<strong>CC</strong> <strong>Madhya</strong> 1: The Later Pastimes of Lord Çré Caitanya Mahäprabhu| 21<br />
Important Point: A man in material existence and attached to kuviñaya<br />
or su-viñaya is in the same position as that of a worm in stool.<br />
After all, whether it be moist or dry, stool is stool. Similarly, material<br />
activities may be either pious or impious, but because they are all<br />
material, they are compared to stool.<br />

Perfection<br />
One needs help to get out of material existence<br />
PURPORT: TEXT198<br />
Transcendental to jïäna-käëòa<br />
and karma-käëòa; it is on the<br />
platform of devotional service.<br />
Worms cannot get out of stool by their own endeavor; similarly,<br />
those who are overly attached to material existence cannot get out<br />
of materialism and suddenly become Kåñëa conscious.<br />

“Those who have made up their minds to remain in this material<br />
world and enjoy sense gratification cannot become Kåñëa<br />
conscious. Because of their attachment to material activity, they<br />
cannot attain liberation, either by the instructions of superior<br />
persons or by their own endeavor or by passing resolutions in big<br />
conferences. Because their senses are uncontrolled, they gradually<br />
descend to the darkest regions of material existence to repeat the<br />
same process of birth and death in desirable or undesirable species<br />
of life.”(SB 7.5.30)<br />
