"In the Vedic age a man was sometimes called upon to beget sons in the womb of a lesser man's wife for the sake of better progeny. In such an instance, the woman is compared to an agricultural field. A person possessing an agricultural field may employ another person to produce food grains from it, but because the grains are produced from the land, they are considered the property of the owner of the land. Similarly, a woman was sometimes allowed to be impregnated by someone other than her husband, but the sons born of her would then become her husband's sons. Such sons were called <i>kṣetra-jāta.</i> Because Rathītara had no sons, he took advantage of this method."

"It is evident that <i>kṣatriyas</i> killed animals in the forest because the flesh of the animals was suitable to be offered at a particular type of <i>yajña.</i> Offering oblations to the forefathers in the ceremony known as <i>śrāddha</i> is also a kind of <i>yajña.</i> In this <i>yajña,</i> flesh obtained from the forest by hunting could be offered. However, in the present age, Kali-yuga, this kind of offering is forbidden. Quoting from the <i>Brahma-vaivarta Purāṇa,</i> Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu said:",
"<i>aśvamedhaṁ gavālambhaṁ<br/> sannyāsaṁ pala-paitṛkam<br/> devareṇa sutotpattiṁ<br/> kalau pañca vivarjayet</i>",
"\"In this age of Kali, five acts are forbidden: the offering of a horse in sacrifice, the offering of a cow in sacrifice, the acceptance of the order of <i>sannyāsa,</i> the offering of oblations of flesh to the forefathers, and a man's begetting children in his brother's wife.\" The word <i>pala-paitṛkam</i> refers to an offering of flesh in oblations to forefathers. Formerly, such an offering was allowed, but in this age it is forbidden. In this age, Kali-yuga, everyone is expert in hunting animals, but most of the people are <i>śūdras,</i> not <i>kṣatriyas.</i> According to Vedic injunctions, however, only <i>kṣatriyas</i> are allowed to hunt, whereas <i>śūdras</i> are allowed to eat flesh after offering goats or other insignificant animals before the deity of goddess Kālī or similar demigods. On the whole, meat-eating is not completely forbidden; a particular class of men is allowed to eat meat according to various circumstances and injunctions. As far as eating beef is concerned, however, it is strictly prohibited to everyone. Thus in <i>Bhagavad-gītā</i> Kṛṣṇa personally speaks of <i>go-rakṣyam,</i> cow protection. Meat-eaters, according to their different positions and the directions of the <i>śāstra,</i> are allowed to eat flesh, but never the flesh of cows. Cows must be given all protection."

In the gardens, fragrant with varieties of flowers, birds chirped and bees hummed, surrounded by professional singers. Saubhari Muni's home was amply provided with valuable beds, seats, ornaments, and arrangements for bathing, and there were varieties of sandalwood creams, flower garlands, and palatable dishes.

"Saubhari Ṛṣi was a great <i>yogī.</i> Yogic perfection makes available eight material opulences—<i>aṇimā, laghimā, mahimā, prāpti, prākāmya, īśitva, vaśitva</i> and <i>kāmāvasāyitā.</i> Saubhari Muni exhibited superexcellence in material enjoyment by dint of his yogic perfection. The word <i>bahv-ṛca</i> means \"expert in chanting <i>mantras.</i>\" As material opulence can be achieved by ordinary material means, it can also be achieved by subtle means through <i>mantras.</i> By chanting <i>mantras,</i> Saubhari Muni arranged for material opulence, but this was not perfection in life. As will be seen, Saubhari Muni became very dissatisfied with material opulence and thus left everything and reentered the forest in the <i>vānaprastha</i> order and achieved final success. Those who are not <i>ātma-tattva-vit,</i> who do not know the spiritual value of life, can be satisfied with external material opulences, but those who are <i>ātma-tattva-vit</i> are not inspired by material opulence. This is the instruction we can derive from the life and activities of Saubhari Muni."

"Material desire is just like a blazing fire. If a fire is continually supplied with drops of fat, the fire will increase more and more and never be extinguished. Therefore the policy of trying to satisfy material desires by catering to one's material demands will never be successful. In modern civilization, everyone is engaged in economic development, which is another way of constantly dropping fat into the material fire. The Western countries have reached the summit of material civilization, but people are still dissatisfied. Real satisfaction is Kṛṣṇa consciousness. This is confirmed in <i>Bhagavad-gītā</i> (5.29), where Kṛṣṇa says:",
"<i>bhoktāraṁ yajña-tapasāṁ<br/> sarva-loka-maheśvaram<br/> suhṛdaṁ sarva-bhūtānāṁ<br/> jñātvā māṁ śāntim ṛcchati</i>",
"\"The sages, knowing Me as the ultimate purpose of all sacrifices and austerities, the Supreme Lord of all planets and demigods and the benefactor and well-wisher of all living entities, attain peace from the pangs of material miseries.\" One must therefore take to Kṛṣṇa consciousness and advance in Kṛṣṇa consciousness by properly following the regulative principles. Then one can attain an eternal, blissful life in peace and knowledge."

Because Garuḍa's plans for eating were disappointed, Saubhari Muni certainly committed a great offense to a Vaiṣṇava. Because of this <i>vaiṣṇava-aparādha,</i> an offense at the lotus feet of a Vaiṣṇava, Saubhari Muni fell from his exalted position of mystic <i>tapasya.</i> One should not, therefore, impede the activities of a Vaiṣṇava. This is the lesson we must learn from this incident concerning Saubhari Muni."

"Saubhari Muni, giving conclusions derived from his practical experience, instructs us that persons interested in crossing to the other side of the material ocean must give up the association of persons interested in sex life and accumulating money. This is also advised by Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu:",
"<i>niṣkiñcanasya bhagavad-bhajanonmukasya<br/> pāraṁ paraṁ jigamiṣor bhava-sāgarasya<br/> sandarśanaṁ viṣayiṇām atha yoṣitāṁ ca<br/> hā hanta hanta viṣa-bhakṣaṇato 'py asādhu <br/> </i>(<i>Caitanya-candrodaya-nāṭaka 8.23</i>)",
"\"Alas, for a person seriously desiring to cross the material ocean and engage in the transcendental loving service of the Lord without material motives, seeing a materialist engaged in sense gratification and seeing a woman who is similarly interested is more abominable than drinking poison willingly.\"",
"One who desires complete freedom from material bondage can engage himself in the transcendental loving service of the Lord. He must not associate with <i>viṣayī</i>—materialistic persons or those interested in sex life. Every materialist is interested in sex. Thus in plain language it is advised that an exalted saintly person avoid the association of those who are materially inclined. Śrīla Narottama dāsa Ṭhākura also recommends that one engage in the service of the <i>ācāryas,</i> and if one wants to live in association, he must live in the association of devotees (<i>tāṅdera caraṇa sevi bhakta-sane vāsa</i>). The Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is creating many centers just to create devotees so that by associating with the members of such a center people will automatically become uninterested in material affairs. Although this is an ambitious proposal, this association is proving effective by the mercy of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu. By gradually associating with the members of the Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement, simply by taking <i>prasāda</i> and taking part in chanting of the Hare Kṛṣṇa <i>mantra,</i> ordinary persons are being considerably elevated. Saubhari Muni regrets that he had bad association even in the deepest part of the water. Because of the bad association of the sexually engaged fish, he fell down. A secluded place is also not secure unless there is good association."

"translation": "<b>O Mahārāja Parīkṣit, by observing their husband progressing in spiritual existence, Saubhari Muni's wives were also able to enter the spiritual world by his spiritual power, just as the flames of a fire cease when the fire is extinguished.</b>",
"purport": [
"As stated in <i>Bhagavad-gītā</i> (9.32), <i>striyo vaiśyās tathā śūdrās te 'pi yānti parāṁ gatim.</i> Women are not considered very powerful in following spiritual principles, but if a woman is fortunate enough to get a suitable husband who is spiritually advanced and if she always engages in his service, she also gets the same benefit as her husband. Here it is clearly said that the wives of Saubhari Muni also entered the spiritual world by the influence of their husband. They were unfit, but because they were faithful followers of their husband, they also entered the spiritual world with him. Thus a woman should be a faithful servant of her husband, and if the husband is spiritually advanced, the woman will automatically get the opportunity to enter the spiritual world."
