Ki Āra Bolibo Tore Mana

What more will I tell you, O my heart? With your mouth you say, "spiritual love", "spiritual love", but the truth is your purse is empty and you have refused a gift of gold.

On cue you weep, jump about, and fall unconscious. With this play-acting you cheat the people. You preach the philosophy of scoundrels. You chase after women and gold.

You are not attracted to sādhana-bhakti (the practice of devotional service), which is the way tom attain prema (pure spiritual love). Then how will you ever attain that pure prema? Turning from the ten offenses, always worship the holy name. When you attain the holy name's mercy, you will attain wonderful prema.

You don't like to worship the Lord or chant in saṅkīrtana with the devotees. You don't meditate on the Lord in a secluded place. Not climbing the tree's branches, you want to gather the fruits by shaking the tree. You will get only the fruits that are bad.

True love for Kṛṣṇa is like very pure gold. In the world of human beings it is very rare. What you are doing is only cheating. First become qualified, and then you will very easily attain love for Kṛṣṇa.

O my brother, look. The outward symptoms of material lust (kāma) and spiritual love (prema) are not different. What you mistakenly call "spiritual love" (prema) is actually material lust (kāma). When you make a mistake like that how can you attain true auspiciousness?
