पुनश्च सार्थं प्रविशत्यरिन्दम ।
अध्वन्यमुष्मिन्नजया निवेशितो
भ्रमञ्जनोऽद्यापि न वेद कश्चन ॥१९॥
ataḥ kathañcit sa vimukta Äpadaḥ
punaÅ› ca sÄrthaá¹ praviÅ›aty arindama
adhvany amuá¹£minn ajayÄ niveÅ›ito
bhramañ jano 'dyÄpi na veda kaÅ›cana
ataḥ - from this; kathañcit - somehow; saḥ - he; vimuktaḥ - liberated; Äpadaḥ - from the danger; punaḥ ca - again; sa-artham - taking interest in that life; praviÅ›ati - begins; arim-dama - O King, killer of the enemies; adhvani - on the path of enjoyment; amuá¹£min - that; ajayÄ - by the influence of the illusory energy; niveÅ›itaḥ - being absorbed; bhraman - traveling; janaḥ - the conditioned soul; adya api - even up to death; na veda - does not understand; kaÅ›cana - anything.
O killer of enemies, MahÄrÄja RahÅ«gaṇa, if the conditioned soul somehow or other gets out of his dangerous position, he again returns to his home to enjoy sex life, for that is the way of attachment. Thus, under the spell of the Lord’s material energy, he continues to loiter in the forest of material existence. He does not discover his real interest even at the point of death.
This is the way of material life. When one is captured by sexual attraction, he becomes implicated in so many ways and cannot understand the real aim of life. Therefore ÅšrÄ«mad-BhÄgavatam (7.5.31) says, na te viduḥ svÄrtha-gatiá¹ hi viṣṇum: generally people do not understand the ultimate goal of life. As stated in the Vedas, oá¹ tad viṣṇoḥ paramaá¹ padaá¹ sadÄ paÅ›yanti sÅ«rayaḥ: those who are spiritually advanced simply look to the lotus feet of Viṣṇu. The conditioned soul, however, not being interested in reviving his relationship with Viṣṇu, becomes captivated by material activities and remains in everlasting bondage, being misled by so-called leaders.
