you have any other work, could you not go somewhere and meditate?’
This has been put in poetry also. Say, a person will be in the thought of Lord Krishna, he is lost in it. When someone comes for him from outside, he would have asked if there no other work. The other person would say that they have to go to the temple. The person who got disturbed would say that ‘you are an external person, you go to the temple, I will sit here and continue my meditation, please go’. That is how they used to be, this discussion goes on. The person will be doing his sadhana at home, someone will come and keep disturbing them that they have to go to the temple. The person will be saying that the people disturbing have no other work. The people would ask that if the person does not come, how will others learn? This discussion is also there. So, you can see the attitude. The person is in happiness but comparisons do come.
