TRANSLATION — TRADUCCION

Although Mahārāja Yayāti was the king of the entire world and he engaged his mind and five senses in enjoying material possessions for one thousand years, he was unable to be satisfied.A pesar de ser rey del mundo entero y a pesar de ocupar su mente y sus cinco sentidos durante mil años en el disfrute de las posesiones materiales, Mahārāja Yayāti no lograba sentirse satisfecho.

PURPORT — SIGNIFICADO

The kad-indriya, or unpurified senses, can be purified if one engages the senses and the mind in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Sarvopādhi-vinirmuktaṁ tat-paratvena nirmalam. One must be freed from all designations. When one identifies himself with the material world, his senses are impure. But when one achieves spiritual realization and identifies himself as a servant of the Lord, his senses are purified immediately. Engagement of the purified senses in the service of the Lord is called bhakti. Hṛṣīkeṇa hṛṣīkeśa-sevanaṁ bhaktir ucyate. One may enjoy the senses for many thousands of years, but unless one purifies the senses, one cannot be happy. Thus end the purports by His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Svāmi Prabhupāda of the Ninth Canto, Eighteenth Chapter, of the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, entitled “King Yayāti Regains His Youth.”Los sentidos sin purificar, kad-indriya, pueden purificarse si ocupamos la mente y los sentidos en el cultivo de Conciencia de Kṛṣṇa. Sarvopādhi-vinirmuktaṁ tat-paratvena nirmalam. Debemos liberarnos de todas las falsas identificaciones. Cuando nos identificamos con el mundo material, nuestros sentidos son impuros. Pero, cuando obtenemos iluminación espiritual y nos identificamos como sirvientes del Señor, los sentidos se purifican inmediatamente. El hecho de ocupar en el servicio del Señor los sentidos purificados se denomina bhakti. Hṛṣīkeṇa hṛṣīkeśa-sevanaṁ bhaktir ucyate. Podemos disfrutar de los sentidos durante muchos miles de años, pero no podremos ser felices mientras no purifiquemos los sentidos. Así terminan los significados de Su Divina Gracia A.C. Bhaktivedanta Svāmi Prabhupāda correspondientes al capítulo decimoctavo del Canto Noveno del Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, titulado «El rey Yayāti recobra la juventud».
