SB 2.3.11 (Krishna Patro Prji):
* The nature of the jivas is always remain happy. Always seeking material happiness.
* But unfortunately, their contact with material nature, they try to enjoy independent of the Lord. Therefore, they continue to struggle to lord over the material nature.
* BG very nicely explains this.
* Spontaneously, we have so many needs for the material things. No end to this want, and it does not end our desire to enjoy.
* And based on their desires, they worship different demigods. Karma kanda portion of the Vedas.
* This world is full of such examples.
* In our own heart too, we can see how we are trying to lord over the material nature.
* In spite of trying so very much, we can never be happy, cause the path is guaranteed not to give full happiness. Cause the path of senses is an unsatisfiable path.
* This world is temporary only, so all the things are also temporary, therefore, we end up with the fear of losing them. So even after we acquire, we get the fear of losing them.
* But here, Sukadeva Goswami is giving one advantage of worshiping Demigods. That they have at least some faith in the Vedic version. The people worshiping the demigods are at least one step ahead of the atheistic people. So they can through their faith, get some association of a pure devotee of a Lord and hence can finally come to the highest benediction, of solving the problems of birth, death, old age and disease. They can attain spontaneous attraction to the SPG and attain bhava.
