I tooked it as special mercy of the Lord who always desires benediction for His devotees and thinking like that I started for the northern side after that.


PURPORT

Confident devotees of Lord see in every step a benedictory direction of the Lord. What is considered as odd moment in the mundane sense is accepted as a special mercy of the Lord. Mudane prosperity is a kind of material fever and by the Grace of the Lord temperature of such material fever of the devotee is gradually diminished and spiritual health is obtained step by step. Mundane people misunderstand it.
