The Material Disease

The material disease is due to hankering after sense objects and lording it over material nature. This hankering is due to an interaction of the three modes of nature, and neither the Lord nor the devotees have attachment for such false enjoyment.
 
Therefore, the Lord and the devotees are called 'niv?tta-gu?a-v?tti' or one who is transcendental to the actions of the modes of material nature and devoid of affection for them. The perfect 'niv?tta-gu?a-v?tti' is the Supreme Lord because He never becomes attracted by the modes of material nature, whereas the living beings have such a tendency. 
 
Many of them are entrapped by the illusory attraction of material nature. However, once we are aware about this fact and have been fortunate to be enlightened by such Absolute Knowledge, we should become careful and overcome this aspiration for nugatory attractions and material attachments.
