Translation

Such a liberated person is not attracted to material sense pleasure but is always in trance, enjoying the pleasure within. In this way the self-realized person enjoys unlimited happiness, for he concentrates on the Supreme.

Selline vabanenud inimene ei ole kiindunud materiaalsetesse meelelistesse naudingutesse, vaid viibib pidevalt transis, kogedes naudinguid enese sees. Sel viisil kogeb eneseteadvustamiseni jõudnud inimene piiritut õnne, sest ta on keskendunud Kõrgeimale.

Purport

Śrī Yāmunācārya, a great devotee in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, said:

Väljapaistev Kṛṣṇa pühendunu Śrī Yāmunācārya on öelnud:

yad-avadhi mama cetaḥ kṛṣṇa-pādāravinde
nava-nava-rasa-dhāmany udyataṁ rantum āsīt
tad-avadhi bata nārī-saṅgame smaryamāne
bhavati mukha-vikāraḥ suṣṭhu niṣṭhīvanaṁ ca

“Since I have been engaged in the transcendental loving service of Kṛṣṇa, realizing ever-new pleasure in Him, whenever I think of sex pleasure I spit at the thought, and my lips curl with distaste.” A person in brahma-yoga, or Kṛṣṇa consciousness, is so absorbed in the loving service of the Lord that he loses his taste for material sense pleasure altogether. The highest pleasure in terms of matter is sex pleasure. The whole world is moving under its spell, and a materialist cannot work at all without this motivation. But a person engaged in Kṛṣṇa consciousness can work with greater vigor without sex pleasure, which he avoids. That is the test in spiritual realization. Spiritual realization and sex pleasure go ill together. A Kṛṣṇa conscious person is not attracted to any kind of sense pleasure, due to his being a liberated soul.

„Kuna ma olen rakendanud end Kṛṣṇa teenimisse transtsendentaalses armastuses, kogedes Temas alati uut naudingut, sülitan ma mõttele seksuaalnaudingust ning iga kord, kui see mulle meenub, tõmbuvad mu huuled vastikusest kokku." Brahma-yoga või Kṛṣṇa teadvuse tasandil viibiv inimene on sedavõrd süvenenud Jumala armastuslikku teenimisse, et ta kaotab huvi materiaalsete meeleliste naudingute vastu. Materiaalses mõttes on kõrgeim nauding seks. Kogu maailm pöörleb seksi lummuses ning materialistlik inimene ei suuda ilma seksuaalse motivatsioonita üldse töötada. Kuid inimene, kes on rakendanud end Kṛṣṇa teadvuse arendamisse, võib töötada seksuaalnaudingust loobudes veelgi suurema jõuga. See on vaimse eneseteadvustamise test. Vaimne eneseteadvustamine ja seksuaalnaudingud ei käi kokku. Kuna Kṛṣṇa teadvuses viibiv inimene on vabanenud hing, siis ei huvita teda meelelised naudingud.
