S膩dara sambh膩峁�a峁嘺 p奴rvikeyam鈥�

M膩鈥斺��! 鈥� I have very little time. At the moment, with all the book publication work I have to do, I cannot find any time. If I stay in the 尘补峁环补, people get irritated, so I am staying separately in a remote house overseeing the work of printing the granthas. No one else comes here.

To tell you the truth, seeing the current situation, I do not want to go anywhere anymore. Men鈥檚 hearts are extremely polluted. No one is accustomed to seeing the good in others. Hatred, violence, envy, blasphemy, gossip, and hopes for profit, worship, and prestige have turned people鈥檚 lives upside-down. There is at present a dearth of love, affection, and courtesy among mankind. Extreme arrogance and bravado have become solidly established in every field. If a person has no patience, tolerance, and simplicity, then what kind of 蝉腻诲丑补苍补-产丑补箩补苍补 can he be doing? Seeing all of this, I have personally become quite reserved. I am just trying to carry on with what little goodness there is in me. After great ordeal, I have, by the blessings of guru and 痴补颈峁ａ箛补惫补蝉, become a human being, so I do not wish to waste time with incompatible (惫颈箩腻迟墨测补) people. My sole aspiration is to lead a solitary life and I am accustomed to leading a solitary existence even in the midst of many people.

I understand that you are sad because you have not had the opportunity to hear 丑补谤颈-办补迟丑腻 for a year and a half. When, amid the greatest disturbance in the world, you are not overwhelmed, then I trust that 艢谤墨 Guru-骋补耻谤腻峁単补-搁腻诲丑腻-Vinoda-bih膩r墨-j墨u have shown you special mercy. If you can always carry on maintaining your composure in any circumstance, you will have auspiciousness. Therein is satisfaction of the soul, therein is peace of mind. The situation these days cannot quite be called misfortune. 厂腻诲丑耻 and 艣腻蝉迟谤补 have explained that the sorrow or suffering that rouses remembrance of the Lord and His devotees constitutes, in the opinion of 碍耻苍迟墨-诲别惫墨, good days and good fortune.

Living entities embroiled in material existence have no alternative other than material existence. Where else will you go besides this infinite material universe? Wherever you go, this material existence of yours and mine will keep trailing along behind us. This material existence is an ocean. It is a mistake to think that the water will dry up and then you will be able to cross that ocean. You have to live in the midst of it and consider the well-being of your soul. We ourselves must try to make the environment

favourable for service. Why only a little concern for you and yours? You have profuse concerns and responsibility and always will. Your sister has learned to tread carefully and deliberately, so there is no need to worry so much for her. Perhaps, indirectly, she has given me some relief from the clutches of worry. 

But with stubborn you, I have fallen into a predicament.

鈥淥nce I carry out my duties in this material existence, I will go to 痴峁沶诲腻惫补苍补. Though I am trying so hard to repay the three debts [to the sages, gods, and ancestors], there is no use to this hope.鈥�

鈥淲hether you live at home or in the forest, all such debate on the matter is pointless.鈥� 

This is our go-to policy at present times. If you leave civilization to go to the forest or jungle, there too you will surely have violent blood-drinking beasts and animals for neighbours, like snakes, scorpions, mosquitoes, worms, and insects. Hence, the best policy is to consider all matters and maintain composure in your heart. That way it is possible to gain peace.

If, daily, you carefully study and cultivate the teachings given in 艢谤墨 贬补谤颈苍腻尘补-肠颈苍迟腻尘补峁噄, 艢谤墨 惭补苍补岣�-艣颈办峁Ｄ�, and 艢谤墨 鲍辫补诲别艣腻尘峁泃补, you will find strength of mind and then the world鈥檚 good and bad cannot agitate you. It is true that good fortune is needed to gain the 诲补谤艣补苍补 of 蝉腻诲丑耻, guru, and 痴补颈峁ａ箛补惫补, but even though 诲补谤艣补苍补 of 鈥測our guru and 痴补颈峁ａ箛补惫补蝉鈥� is rare, know that it is also very much accessible. All is well if you are all well. What more? Iti鈥�

Your eternal well-wisher,
艢谤墨 Bhaktived膩nta 痴腻尘补苍补
