You must come to this path. There is no time to wait!

উঠরে উঠরে ভাই, আর ত সময় নাই,
‘কৃষ্ণ ভজ’ বলে উচ্চৈঃস্বরে ॥

uthare uthare bhai, ara ta samaya nai,
‘krsna bhaja’ bale uchchaihsvare

‘Gaudiya Vaishnavs call out loudly: Wake up! Wake up, brother! There is no time left! Worship Lord Krishna!’

(Acharya Vandana)

There is no time left! If you do something one day earlier, you will get the result one day earlier, too. I also think that I came to the temple only thirty years ago, but if I had come earlier, I would have been able to do so much more. I could have done more service. Now, I am slowly getting old, but I am still continuing going everywhere…

We must be conscious that there is no time to waste. This is how we must practise Krishna consciousness. We will leave any day, there is no time to delay! People do not come to this path because of such trifles! They cannot give up fish and meat – what is this? What is the problem if you do not eat meat, fish or onions? Will you die if you do not eat it?! Eating all this only increases diseases. Do not eat fish and meat! I will go away, but you will still not have come to this path. What is the problem? You can boil potato and have it with rice. You can cook spinach, vegetables. Do not kill jiva souls. If you show mercy to jiva souls, you will get supreme benefit.

Do not kill jiva souls. It is said in the scriptures, and science also says the same thing: every action has an equal and opposite reaction. If I kill somebody in this world – for example, if I cut a chicken – in my next life, I will become a chicken myself. My soul will be in a chicken’s body, and the chicken’s soul will get a human body, and it will come to kill me. This is told both in the scriptures and by science. Every action has an equal and opposite reaction. If you kill somebody in this world, you are afraid that you will be punished for this. Sometimes, it happens also that a man kills his father, but when this man’s son grows up and hears that his father had killed his grandfather, he kills his father for that. Therefore, if you kill somebody in this world, they will come to kill you later, in a future life.

Follow ekadasi, chant the Holy Name, wear Tulasi beads on your necks. If you wear Tulasi mala on your necks, Yamadutas will not be able to touch you. Have you heard what they look like? They come to take you at the time of death. The soul does not want to leave the body, but Yamadutas come and take the soul away forcefully. But if there are Tulasi beads on your necks, then Vaishnavs come for you. So, practise Krishna consciousness properly and timely, and you will get benefit.
