personally carries devotee's needs

Now this Arjunacarya... That's a very nice story. When he was writing commentaries, oh, he thought, "How is that, the Lord will come Himself and deliver the goods? Oh, it is not possible. He might be sending through some agents." So he wanted to cut vahamy aham, "I bear the burden and deliver." He wrote in a way that "I send some agent who delivers." So that Arjunacarya went to take bath, and in the meantime two boys, very beautiful boys, They brought some very nice foodstuff, very large..., in large quantity. And in India there is a process to taking two sides burden on the bamboo. Just like a scale it is balanced.    (More...)

So Arjunacarya, "Oh, you are taking food? What is that?" No. He did not; I am mistaken. Sorry. He said that "You are..." So the wife said, "Acarya, you have become so much cruel nowadays?" "Oh, what is that?" "Now, two boys, very nice boys, They have brought so many foodstuff. You loaded on Their head, and They denied to take it, and you have beaten Them, chastised?" He said, "No. I have never done this. Why shall I do it?" Then she described, "Oh, such a nice, beautiful boy." Then Arjunacarya understood that "Because I wanted that God does not deliver, so He has delivered these goods, and because I cut these alphabets that He does not give personally, so He has shown that beating mark." There is an incidence in southern India of Yamunacarya. That story is there. Of course, you may believe or not believe. That's a different thing. But here the Lord says that "I personally deliver."    (More...)
