PURPORT

Generally the distressed, the needy, the intelligent and the inquisitive persons who have some pious activities behind, do worship or begin to worship the Lord. Others who are thriving on misdeeds only never mind whatsoever one may be, cannot approach the Supreme on account of being misled by the illusory energy. Therefore, for a pious person if there is some calamity there is no other alternative than to take shelter of the lotus feet of the Lord. Constantly remembring the Lotus feet of the Lord means preparing the way of not experiencing repetition of birth and death. Therefore, even though there are so called calamities they are welcome because that give us opportunity to remember the Lord which means no more repetition of birth and death. One who has taken the shelter of the lotus feet of the Lord which are accepted as the most suitable boat for crossing over the ocean of nescience, can do so as easily as one leaps over the hole made by the hoops of a calf. Such persons are meant for residing in the abode of the Lord and they have nothing to do with a place where there is danger in every step.

This material world is certified by the Lord in the Bhagwat Geeta as the dangerous place full of calamities. Less intelligent persons prepare plans for adjusting those calamities without knowing that the nature of this place is itself full of calamities. They have no information of the abode of the Lord which is full of bliss without any trace of calamity. The duty of the same person is therefore not to be disturbed by the worldly calamities which are sure to happen in all circumstances, but suffering all sorts of unavoidable calamities one should make progress in the matter of spiritual realisation because that is the end of the mission of human life. The spirit soul is transcendental to all material calamities and therefore the so called calamities are sometimes said as false exactly in the sense that a man sees a tiger swallowing him in dream and crying for this calamity. Actually there is no tiger and there is no suffering but it is simply a case of hallucination to the suffering men. In the same way all calamities of our life are as to say hallucination of a sleeping man but in exchange of such hallicinative phenomenon if somebody is lucky to get contact of the Lord by devotional service it is all the tangible gain in life. Because contact of the Lord by anyone of the nine devotional devices, is always a forward step on the path of going back to Godhead.
