SLOKA OF THE DAY:

Bhagavad Gita As It Is -
Chapter 16 Text 5

daivi sampad vimoksaya
nibandhayasuri mata
ma sucah sampadam daivim
abhijato 'si pandava

daivi--transcendental; sampat--assets; vimoksaya--meant for liberation; nibandhaya--for bondage; asuri--demoniac qualities; mata--are considered; ma--do not; sucah--worry; sampadam--assets; daivim--transcendental; abhijatah--born of; asi--you are; pandava--O son of Pandu.

TRANSLATION

The transcendental qualities are conducive to liberation, whereas the demoniac qualities make for bondage. Do not worry, O son of Pandu, for you are born with the divine qualities.

JOURNAL:

In his lecture on this sloka (01/31/1975, Hawaii) Srila Prabhupada ends with this statement; "So, one thing we request is, those who do not comply with our rules and regulations at least they may chant Hare Krishna where ever they may be."

Ki Jaya Srila Prabhupada, who has so much mercy on us!
