Sincere Joy

His Divine Grace Om Vishnupad
Srila Bhakti Nirmal Acharya Maharaj
Sri Nabadwip Dham, 27 February 2015

You have joined the Nabadwip Dham parikrama this year, and many are also helping from other countries—devotees are preaching all over the world, and I am very happy.

পর-সুখে দুঃখী সদা মিথ্যাভাষী, para-sukhe duhkhi, sada mithya-bhasi: we are sad when others are happy and we always tells lies, but actually if somebody is preaching Krishna consciousness, it is good for us!

If somebody wants to preach Krishna consciousness separately, I do not have any problem with that—if somebody preaches for their own purpose, that is not good, but when somebody preaches for Gurudev, preaches Gurudev's conception, Srila Sridhar Dev-Goswami Maharaj's conception, it makes me very happy.

At the moment there is some problem and I cannot go to the Western countries, but when I hear devotees preach outside India, I am happy with them, and I always think about their welfare. For example, I cannot go now and I send Sripad Tyagi Maharaj country to country to give some nourishment to the devotees, and he does it for me—Krishna sent him to me. I am very happy with that.

Actually, no one can stop Krishna's service. At first, when I joined the temple, there were only two temples, the main temple and the samadhi temple of Srila Sridhar Maharaj, and now we see the puja is going on in seven temples in Nabadwip. Some may say, "There are not so many devotees in the temple," but how is it possible then that the service is going on every day in the seven places? After Gurudev disappeared also, there appeared so many more branches, and so much Deities' seva is going on and increasing day by day—how is it possible? Without mercy of Gurudev, without mercy of Guru-Vaishnav, it is impossible.
