Everyone in material world is running after material chores
so that
ultimately they can have some peace but what we have actually
seen that no one is at peace.
Caitanya Caritamrita Madhya Lila 19.149 :-
kṛṣṇa-bhakta--niṣkāma, ataeva 'śānta'
bhukti-mukti-siddhi-kāmī--sakali 'aśānta'
Because a devotee of Lord Kṛṣṇa is desireless, he is peaceful. Fruitive workers desire material enjoyment, jñānīs desire liberation, and yogīs desire material opulence; therefore they are all lusty and cannot be peaceful.
So here Prabhupada clearly mentions that just because karmi, gyani & yogi are all full of desires so they can’t have peace while a devotee who is desireless can have peace.
But in material world how can one become desireless??
As long as this material body is there, there is desire to be fulfilled,
So what formula devotees know that they become desireless?
That peace formula is described by Krishna in Bhagavad Gita 5.29:-
bhoktāraṁ yajña-tapasāṁ
sarva-loka-maheśvaram
suhṛdaṁ sarva-bhūtānāṁ
jñātvā māṁ śāntim ṛcchati
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.
So if we know that Krishna is the proprietor & controller of everything & Krishna is the Enjoyer & Krishna is our true friend then we can become desireless & can attain real peace.
Because Everything belongs to Krishna so we can use everything for Krishna’s satisfaction & not for ourself.
Likewise Krishna is the ultimate enjoyer & we are to be enjoyed by him.
Krishna is our true shelter, true friend who is always there to help us.
So by gaining this knowledge from bonafide Guru in parampara & do Bhakti under Guru’s guidance we can converge our desire to satisfy Krishna only & can attain real peace .
