In plain words
Men, women, trees, hills, worms and insects: everything is made of clay. All the objects born in this Prakṛti are made of Prakṛti and of nothing else. Yet here we must recognise, to some extent, a few kinds of ideals.
Dharmaja, eldest of the Pāṇḍavas, and Arjuna were very close to Kṛṣṇa. They were most intimate with Him. They were the ones He held in Prema. Even so, however many times they prayed to Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa did not accept their prayer and appear before them. Yet at any moment at all, the instant Draupadī prayed, ‘Hey Kṛṣṇa!’, Kṛṣṇa would appear. What is the inner meaning of this? God appears the instant women pray, and gives no answer of any kind when men pray: we must reflect a little on the inner meaning in this. Women are forms of Prakṛti. That they were born of Prakṛti itself, that they are women: so they keep uttering the very name that belongs to Prakṛti. Though born in Prakṛti, he swaggers in the word and the ego of ‘I am a man, opposed to Prakṛti’. Precisely because he uses words opposed to Prakṛti, precisely because of ego, God cannot appear there.
Every human being has no choice but to follow Prakṛti. This is the Dharma of Prakṛti. Whoever a man may be, he has to follow this Dharma. No man in the world brought anything with him when he came. No man takes anything with him when he goes back. This same law Prakṛti has given equally to all, from the pauper to the millionaire. In whatever way the pauper leaves this world, the millionaire leaves this world in that same state. So we must recognise the truth that all, without such distinctions, have to follow the laws of Prakṛti. Yet man’s mind is seen running against this. To flow downhill is the very nature of water. Only when water is filled into a steady vessel can it stay without moving this way and that; otherwise it keeps flowing downhill all the time. In the same way the mind, too, is forever running down some slope or other. Only when it is filled into a secure vessel can it stay without moving this way and that. This mind has two kinds of stream. One is the stream of lust. The second is kāñcana, that is, the stream of money. Dig what wells you like right beside this stream: it is this stream’s own water that enters them. It draws even the water in the wells into itself.
