Srila Bhaktisiddhanta's instructions from Giriraja Swami

[Guest guest]

> All the residents of the math should always be engaged in the service of

> Sri Hari, Guru, and Vaisnava. They should always be engaged in hearing

> hari-katha and discussing hari-katha. If one becomes averse to hari-katha

> and hari-seva then one will again be entangled by one's material desires.

> Then one's time will be spent in gossiping, criticizing others, fighting

> with others and gratifying one's senses. If the residents of the math do

> not understand that vaisnava-seva is the most beneficial thing, then they

> will not make progress in the realm of devotion. One has to cultivate

> one's Krsna consciousness by sincerely serving the Vaisnavas and by

> endeavoring to please the Vaisnavas with body, mind and soul.

 

What is the source of this? I'd like to quote it in my upcoming book on

Srila Bhaktisiddhanta.
