Text 2] Jada Bharata Instructs King Rahagana 375

perienced man. Consequently you cannot be considered an ex-
perienced person. An experienced person does not speak the way
you are speaking about the relationship between a master and a
servant or about material pains and pleasures. These are simply ex-
ternal activities. Any advanced, experienced man, considering the
Absolute Truth, does not talk in this way.

PURPORT
Krsna similarly chastised Arjuna. Asocyan anvasocas tvam prajnda-
vadams ca bhasase: “While speaking learned words, you are lamenting
for what is not worthy of grief.” (Bg. 2.11) Similarly, among people in
general, 99.9 percent try to talk like experienced advisers, but they are
actually devoid of spiritual knowledge and are therefore like inex-
perienced children speaking nonsensically. Consequently their words
cannot be given any importance. One has to learn from Krsna or His
devotee. If one speaks on the basis of this experience—that is. on the
basis of spiritual knowledge—one’s words are valuable. At the present
moment, the entire world is full of foolish people. Bhagavad-gita de-
scribes these people as miidhas. They are trying to rule human society.
but because they are devoid of spiritual knowledge. the entire world is in
a chaotic condition. To be released from these miserable conditions. one
has to become Krsna conscious and take lessons from an exalted per-
sonality like Jada Bharata. Lord Krsna and Kapiladeva. That is the only

way to solve the problems of material life.
