kite-flying

Imported quote 17312 But unfortunately, instead of taking shelter of Krsna, we have taken shelter of lusty desires. This is demonic. Therefore it is said, kamam asritya duspūram. Duspūram... Duḥ. Duḥ means very difficult, and pūram means satisfaction. Duspūram. We have taken shelter of lusty desires which will never be satisfied. This is our position. Kamam asritya duspūram. These materialistic person, demons, their desires are never fulfilled-increasing, increasing, increasing; more, more more. So that means, increasing means, we are becoming implicated more and more. The business of human life is how to become free from this material encagement. But the asuras, or the demons, instead of becoming free from material entanglement, they become more and more involved. That is the... Just like that kite-flying. Kite-flying, there is that reel? What is called? No, you have no experience. So you can fly. The kite goes very high and high. In India kite-flying is very popular sport. So you can allow the kite go and go, very high, and at the same time you can bring it near and nearer by that wheel. So this wheel, this human form of body, is meant for not prolonging the unclean material life, but now stop it. Now stop it. It is meant for that purpose.
