"Take Care of My Property"

His Divine Grace Om Vishnupad
Srila Bhakti Nirmal Acharya Maharaj
14 October 2014

 

Actually what you have decided to do, you cannot decide yourself because when you surrendered to me, you already gave everything to me for the service to the Lord.

We are not enjoyers, we are not renunciants. When you surrender to your guru, you give this body to your Guru to serve the Lord, that is why you have no right to leave this body without food or do anything like that. This body is necessary for service, and you must take proper food for service to the Lord.

We live in this world for the service to the Lord, not for enjoyment or renunciation. You must understand what I am telling you.

When Sanatan Goswami also wanted to commit suicide, Mahaprabhu told him, "Why are you going to destroy My property? You have no right to destroy My property. I will engage this body in the service of the Lord."

I also want to engage you in the service of the Lord, so you have no right to destroy my property. Your body is my property, and you cannot destroy my property and leave it without food. You must take some food and take care of your health. Take care of my property.

The Bliss of Solitude
Are you tired of the world around and feel like being alone? An educational story told by Srila Bhakti Siddhanta Saraswati Thakur may help you curb that desire—and all other material desires as well.

 

Sri Sri Damodarastakam
'O Lord, although You are able to give all kinds of benedictions, I do not pray to you for the boon of impersonal liberation, nor the highest liberation of eternal life in Vaikuntha, nor any other boon [which may be obtained by executing the nine processes of bhakti]. O Lord, I simply wish that this form of Yours as Bala Gopala in Vrndavana may ever be manifest in my heart, for what is the use to me of any other boon besides this?'

What did Gurudev leave us for? So that we join the festival, give some glorification, take prasadam, and leave? Our service does not finish there.
