*Devotional Service*
********
In Krsna Consciousness there cannot be two opinions. There is only one goal
:- to serve Krsna to one's best ability. If there is some disagreement over
service, such disagreement is to be taken as spiritual.

*The holy name is the most valuable asset that you can possess!*

Hare Krishna Prabhujis and Matajis,
Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada and
Srila Gurudeva.

There is a famous quote that the *grass appears greener on the other side*.
So we always have a tendency to compare our position with others and to
imitate to be like them. But the reality is when we try to imitate others,
we would not be able to be sustain the show also for a long time.

In this regard we came across a small story about a donkey and a dhobi. The
donkey had to carry loads of clothes every day for his master. He was very
bored with his tiresome daily routine and always thought that the animals
in the forest are very lucky as they were roaming freely all day and did
not have to do any hard work like him. He felt that among all the wild
animals, animals like lions and tigers are the most luckiest as every other
animal in the forest are afraid of them. He yearned to become a tiger. So
one night when the dhobi was fast asleep, he left for the forest. As soon
as he entered the forest, he started enjoying the chill breeze and was very
elated about his new life there. To his surprise he came across the skin of
a dead tiger. He considered himself very lucky and quickly got into that
skin. And now as he walked in the forest, even the smaller animals started
fleeing away from him, thinking that he is a tiger. Pleased by this
experience, the donkey decided to have some fun with the villagers and his
master as well. So he went back to the village and everyone, including the
dhobi started running away as soon as they saw him. The donkey felt
very happy and soon he reached the master's house. The place and
surroundings were very familiar to him and he felt 'at home'. Soon he saw
the fresh juicy grass in the garden and started relishing it. And out of
joy he started braying loudly. The dhobi realised that it was the sound of
his lost donkey and when he peeped out of his window, he was surprised to
see tiger eating grass. Not realising that he is being watched, the donkey
brayed again and then the dhobi started beating him with a stick and the
tiger skin fell-off and the donkey got exposed.

The moral of the story is that we should not artificially try to be what we
are not. Posing before others for cheap adoration and power is cheating.
Such pretension results in pain. So it is better to be ourselves than to
pretend. In Bhagavad Gita verse 3.6 Lord Krishna says,

*karmendriyaani samyamya / ya aaste manasaa smaran
indriyaarthaan vimudhaatma / mityaacarah sa ucyate*

"*One who restrains the senses of action but whose mind dwells on sense
objects certainly deludes himself and is called a pretender.*"

In his wonderful purport to the above verse Srila Prabhupada says, "*There
are many pretenders who refuse to work in Krishna consciousness but make a
show of meditation, while actually dwelling within the mind upon sense
enjoyment. Such pretenders may also speak on dry philosophy in order to
bluff sophisticated followers, but according to this verse these are the
greatest cheaters*."

Some people may be very good in Deity worship, some in cooking, some in
distributing books. We cannot imitate everyone. But we should try to serve
the Lord to the best of our ability. When the sages in Naimisharanya
request Suta Goswami to explain the glories of Supreme Lord, Suta Goswami
very humbly says in Srimad Bhagavatam 1.18.23 - "*O Rshis, who are as
powerfully pure as the sun, I shall try to describe to you the
transcendental pastimes of Vishnu as far as my knowledge is concerned. As
the birds fly in the sky as far as their capacity allows, so do the learned
devotees describe the Lord as far as their realization allows*."

Mosquito flies to certain height. Sparrow flies more higher than mosquito.
Eagles fly more higher than the sparrows. How much ever hard they try, a
mosquito cannot exceed a sparrow or sparrow cannot exceed a eagle. But they
just fly as much as they can. Similarly each one of us is bestowed with
certain capacity by the Supreme Lord and He doesn't distinguish the service
based on quantity or the end-result. In Ramayan we see that the squirrel's
attempt to help Lord Ram to build the bridge and the service done by
Hanuman and other monkey soldiers of Sugriva in building the same were all
considered to be the same by the Supreme Lord. So we should not artificialy
try to imitate others. The attitude to serve the Lord lovingly to the best
of our ability is important than to imitate or pretend to be like others.

Thank you very much.
Yours in service of Srila Prabhupada and Srila Gurudeva,
Sudarshana devi dasi.
