Text 23) Karma-yoga—Action in Krsna Consciousness
297
soul is not interested in anything which is temporary. Knowing well the joys of transcendental pleasures, how can a liberated soul agree to enjoy false pleasure? In the  Padma Purāna  it is said:
ramante yogino nante satyānanda-cid-ātmani iti rāma-padenāsau paraṁ brahmābhidhīyate
“The mystics derive unlimited transcendental pleasures from the Absolute Truth, and therefore the Supreme Absolute Truth, the Personality of Godhead, is also known as Rāma.”
In the  Srīmad-Bhāgavatam  also it is said:
nāyaṁ deho deha-bhājāṁ nṛ-loke kaṣṭān kāmānarhate viḍ-bhujāṁ ye tapo divyaṁ putrakā yena sattvaṁ śuddhyed yasmād brahma-saukhyaṁ tv anantam.
“My dear sons, there is no reason to labor very hard for sense pleasure while in this human form of life; such pleasures are available to the stool-eaters [hogs]. Rather, you should undergo penances in this life by which your existence will be purified, and, as a result, you will be able to enjoy unlimited transcendental bliss.” ( Bhāg.  5.5.1)
Therefore, those who are true  yogīs  or learned transcendentalists are not attracted by sense pleasures, which are the causes of continuous material existence. The more one is addicted to material pleasures, the more he is entrapped by material miseries.
