751205 Lecture - Srila Prabhupada Speaks a Nectar Drop in Vrndavana
Nectar Drops from Srila Prabhupada |
"Your material gain, happiness or distress, you are destined to get. You'll get it. Again the same, duḥkhavad anyataḥ. Duḥkham anyat nataḥ. Anyat nataḥ. Nobody tries to get distress. If you ask anybody that "Why you are working so hard?" nobody says that "I am working so hard, I want distress." Nobody will say. Everyone will say, "I'll be happy. I'll get happiness. Therefore I am working hard." "No, this is distress." "Yes, this is distress, but I'll get happiness after this." This is called māyā. He is undergoing distress, but he is thinking, "I'll get happiness." This is called māyā.
So there is no use. This is śāstric injunction. You have to see your future through the śāstra. So don't waste your time in that way." |
