Keno Bheker Prayās?

Why do you have so much desire for changing clothes? By prematurely changing clothes from those of a householder to those of a renunciant, all is destroyed.xv Only when one's consciousness is first purified, then the intelligence perceives transcendental truth, and finally the change of clothes will automatically come and be manifest in its time.

bheka dhori' ceṣṭā kore, bheker jvālāya śeṣe mare,
neḍāneḍī chaḍāchaḍi, ākhaḍā beṅdhe' vās
akāla-kuṣmāṇḍa, jata bhaṇḍa, korche jīver sarva-nāś

But when one makes an artificial endeavor to put on the clothes of an ascetic, then ultimately one perishes in the fever of that improper dress. Thus one becomes known as a member of the sect called Neḍā-Neḍī, going about the town begging alms, and living at the meeting place called ākharā.xvi Such a worthless person, just like a pumpkin grown uselessly at an unsuitable time of year, finally destroys everything that would be good for their own soul.xvii

śuka, nārada, catuḥsana, bheker adhikārī ha'na,
tāṅ'der samān pārle ho'te bheke korbe āś
bolo temana buddhi, citta-śuddhi
ka'jana dharāya korche vās?

The great sages Śukadeva Goswāmī, Nārada Muni, and the four Kumāras are truly qualified to wear the dress of renunciants. One may desire to wear a dress similar to theirs as soon as one becomes as renounced as they are. Tell me-who can develop the intelligence and purified heart of these great sages merely by wearing a particular garment?

ātmānātma-suviveke, prema-latāya citta-bheke,
bhajana-sādhana-vāriseke koroha ullās
cāṅda-bāul bole, emana ho'le, ho'te pārbe kṛṣṇa-dās

In full knowledge of what is the soul and what is not of the soul, wearing the dress of a renunciant within your heart, just make your creeper of prema bloom by sprinkling it with the rainfall of bhajan-sādhana. Chāṅd Bāul says, when this occurs, then you will actually become Lord Kṛṣṇa's servant.
