In the transcendental loving service of the Lord, it does not matter whether we are working, Cooking, Painting, Writing, Chanting, or whatever; they are all the same. There are no such distinctions of higher and lower on the transcendental platform. The important thing is that we are engaging our time and energy in the service of the Lord. After all, we are so tiny, what can we do? Krishna sees simply that this time is being spent in His Service. — Letter to Kiranamayi, 25th Feb, 1968.
Serving The Lord
The Lord can be served simply by adoring Him and accepting Him.
Srimad Bhagavatam 2.9.36,
Srila Prabhupada
Using The Things of The Material World
The currency notes, although paper, are issued by the government, they have full value. Similarly, this material world though temporary, but because it is an emanation from the Lord, it has its full value. The Vaishnava philosopher knows how to utilize it properly, whereas the Mayavadi philosopher fails to do so.
Please Understand
My friend, you are being washed away in material nature’s waves of time. Please try to understand that you are the eternal servant of the Lord. Then everything will stop and you will stop and you will be eternally happy.
