Wrong Employment

His Divine Grace Om Vishnupad
Srila Bhakti Nirmal Acharya Maharaj
Translated into English from Bengali
15 February 2020, part 7

 

What do you do?

Devotee: I work in a shopping mall.

In a shopping mall? I need many employees. Gurudev has opened a large factory, there are so many vacancies there, and you are going to work in a shopping mall. I need many employees, but you will not get money for this work. How much is your salary? Ten-twelve thousand? Fifteen thousand? How unfortunate it is to be working in a shopping mall. You used to serve the Lord at the temple, and now?... Have you got married?

Devotee: Not yet.

That is good. You have time now, my friend. Gurudev has opened a large factory, and there are many vacancies available. Come to this factory. Leave your shopping mall. Is your mother alive?

Devotee: Yes, she is.

OK, take her and come together to the temple.

Devotee: She does not want to come.

If she does not want, it means there is Maya, it is necessary to pull her. You must pull her out of the house, once one leg is out, I will pull her other leg!

Service Without Attachment
'Sometimes it may come to your mind that what you are doing is bhajan, service, but it may be all karma. If you follow your Gurudev, serve the Vaishnavs, then you can easily call it service.'

 

Nitai gunamani amara
'Nitai, the jewel of all good qualities, my Nitai, the jewel of all good qualities, brought a flood of divine love and inundated the earth.'
নিতাই গুণমণি আমার

If you make one step to Krishna, Krishna will make ten steps to you.
He is always ready to come to you.
