If a good advice is given to 'murkha' (the foolish person), he is not pacified on the contrary he becomes angry. Wherever it is coming from one should take good advice. Gold, wherever it is, may be in the dustbin you grab it.

Probably you all have experience of… as you go out preaching and you come across lot of times these demoniac natured persons and they end up becoming angry. They say, “Go! Get a job”. Hare Krishnas are chanting on the streets of wherever. They are not even directly preaching to them, talking to them but they are hearing ‘Hare Krishna..Hare Krishna.. Krishna Krishna’ and they become angry ‘Go! Get a job’. But then devotees say – This is our job ! We are on the job !!
