By Srila Bhakti Vinod Thakur

 

amara jivanasada pape rata
nahika punyera lesa
parere udvegadiyachhi ye kata
diyachhi jivere klesa [1]

My life is always engrossed in sin. There is not a trace of piety within it. I have caused others so much anxiety and trouble.

nija sukha lagi'pape nahi dari
daya-hina svartha-para
para-sukhe duhkhisada mithya-bhasi
para-duhkha sukha-kara [2]

I am never afraid to engage in sinful activities for the sake of my own happiness. I am merciless and selfish. I am a perpetual liar. I am saddened by the happiness of others and pleased by the sadness of others.

asesa kamanahrdi majhe mora
krodhi, dambha-parayana
mada-matta sadavisaye mohita
himsa-garva vibhusana [3]

There are unlimited sinful desires within the core of my heart. I am angry and arrogant, always maddened with vanity, infatuated with mundanity, and malice and pride are my ornaments.

nidralasya hatasukarye virata
akarye udyogi ami
pratistha lagiyasathya-acharana
lobha-hata sada kami [4]

I am subdued by laziness and sleep, averse to performing good deeds, and eager to perform sinful deeds. I engage in deceitful behaviour in pursuit of prestige. I am ruined by greed and constantly covetous.

e hena durjanasajjana-varjita
aparadhi nirantara
subha-karya-sunyasadanartha-manah
nana-duhkhe jara jara [5]

Such a sinner as I is shunned by devotees, and is a constant offender. I am devoid of virtuous motives, always intent upon evil, and racked by various miseries.

vardhakye ekhanaupaya-vihina
ta'te dina akinchana
bhakati-vinodaprabhura charane
kare duhkha nivedana [6]

Now aged, I am devoid of any means of deliverance and thus destitute and distressed. Bhakti Vinod submits this remorseful confession at the Lord's feet.

In the Face of Austerity
'Some problem will come through your service—if everything always goes smooth it is not service. If your boat is going in the same direction as the current, your boat will go easily, but if the current is going in the opposite direction, then you will have to row hard.'

 

      

“Our Gurudev gives us so much, but how much can we give to our Guru?”
