Engaging in Preaching instead of Politics
Bhajan | A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami
Verse 1
e saba nahe prabhura pracārera rīti
e saba kareche guru-goṅsāira jāti
Verse 2
kintu ceye dekha kibā durdaśā hayeche
viṣayī haiyā sabe pracāra cheḍeche
Verse 3
mandire-o tālā-bandha hayeche ārambha
bhāgavata pracāra kara, nā kara vilambha
Verse 4
medinīra madhye āche ekaṭi medina
kim̐vā śabda yāya tava asama bhedinī
Verse 5
"mallāra dauḍa tāi masjida prayanta"
e-saba pracāra- kārya āji kara anta
Verse 6
ā-samudra medina-para brahmāṇḍa-bhedinī
ṣakale miliyā kara pracāra-vāhinī
Verse 7
tabe se prabhura pūjāra habe paripāṭi
āja-ī pratijñā kara chāḍa kuṭi-nāṭi
Verse 8
āja-ī ekatra haye karaha mantavya
pāṅce mili vicāraha ki karā kartavya
Verse 9
tyāgī haiyācha bhāi, kara sabe tyāga
“vāṇī”-tyāga kara yadi kisera virāga?
Verse 10
“guru-bhogī”, “guru-tyāgī” dui ta" asāra
“guru-sevī” hale para bujhibe vicāra
Verse 1
All these things are not our spiritual master’s preaching methods. These are all the things done by the caste gosvamis.
Verse 2
But just take a good look at the terrible situation that has arisen. Everyone has become a sense enjoyer and has given up preaching.
Verse 3
In the temples also they have begun to lock the doors. Preach this bhagavata-dharma, don’t hesitate.
Verse 4
Whithin this world there is another world, whose sound is the unequaled penetrating force.
Verse 5
The preaching that “the molla only goes as far as the mosque and no further” should be put to an end today.
Verse 6
From the seas, across the earth, penetrate the universal shell, come together and preach this Krsna consciousness.
Verse 7
Then the worship of our Master will be proper. Indeed, today let us make this vow and give up our politics and duplicity!
Verse 8
This very day, let us gather together and discuss. Let us align our differing views and decide what to do.
Verse 9
You have become renouncers, brothers, so renounce everything. But if you also renounce the order of your spiritual master, then what kind of renunciation is that?
Verse 10
The one who renounces his guru’s order (guru-tyagi) and the one who tries to enjoy the assets of his spiritual master (guru-bhogi) are two kinds of useless persons. First become a servant of your spiritual master (guru-sevi), and then you will understand all these things clearly.
