________________ "If we do not watch those, how will interest to watch it be generated?" "Is it not better if there is no interest? Let me point out the second formula. After every one or two episodes, give up watching the next one. After making up your mind, be firm and stick to your decision at any cost." "Then how will the link be maintained?" "You have never had a problem with that! Are you not quite used to missing episodes? During the four months of monsoon, whenever there are discourses based upon a scripture, each daily discourse is like an episode. Often you leave the episode midway by giving trivial reasons as excuses. You come in late, leave early. Missing out is acceptable to you, when it is at your convenience." This is no laughing matter. Watching T.V. is a crime. If you are not prepared to curtail watching it, be prepared to bear unlimited punishment in the future for it. Later on 'crying over spilt milk' will not help. Similarly, you have been in business for decades and you have been unscrupulous, involved in adulteration or betrayal in order to amass a lot of wealth right from the start, are you now willing to give up these sinful acts? If you still intend to continue doing business, in a manner which is contemptuous of what is right and honourable, Karmasatta will have no option and will be inclined to punish you accordingly. In the next life, extreme poverty will follow you like a shadow. One sees a lot of poor people who may be very astute and hard working but are unable to earn anything at all. Their past evil deeds prevent them from gaining success. A morsel of food having come close to the mouth is snatched away, 72
