Thus renunciation by itself, the simple giving up of worldly things,
is not sufficient. Renunciation may be a helpful process, but it
will not help absolutely. When we increase our attachment for Krsna,
our renunciation will be perfect. As we increase attachment for
Krsna, attachment for this material world will automatically
diminish. Attachment for Krsna and the material world cannot go hand
in hand. If a woman is attached to two men--her husband and her
paramour--she cannot maintain her attachment for both. Her
attachment will increase for her paramour. Although she may work at
her husband's home very nicely, her mind will be attached to her
paramour, and she will think, "When shall I meet him tonight?" In
the same way, if we increase our attachment for Krsna, detachment or
renunciation of this material world will automatically come (bhaktih
paresanubhavo viraktir anyatra ca, SB. 11.2.42).
