From the gospel of sri ramakrishna

Excerpted from the Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna, Page 206

Tuesday 27/2/07

The Master Said:

"They are indeed bound souls who constantly dwell with 'woman and
gold'
and do not think of God even for a moment. How can you expect noble
deeds
of them? They are like mangoes pecked by a crow, which may not be
offered
to the Deity in the temple, and which even men hesitate to eat.
Bound souls, worldly people are like silk-worms. The worms can cut
through
their cocoons if they want, but having woven the cocoons themselves,
they are too much attached to leave them. And so they die there."
