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!

Sri Sri Damodarastakam
'O Lord, Your lotus face, which is encircled by locks of soft black hair tinged with red, is kissed again and again by Mother Yasoda, and Your lips are reddish like the bimba fruit. May this beautiful vision of Your lotus face be ever manifest in my heart. Thousands and thousands of other benedictions are of no use to me.'
শ্রীশ্রীদামোদরাষ্টকম্

We must serve Krishna, must realise that all property is His property
and use it for His benefit.
