Knowing God is then to enter the Domestic life!

Lord Ramakrishna said to the inquirer, “Look, you have spent most of your life in the Domestic life and are now searching for God. How much peace and joy would you have today if you had known God first and then entered the Domestic life? ”

Know God first, then try to get rich. Don't go for less that your full potential. First enter the world by acquiring spirituality, but you do not have to lose your peace of mind. Just as a boy holds a pole in both hands and revolves around it with the force of his body, there is no fear of falling, so do you hold fast to the footsteps of God. Then you will be free from all dangers. Never let the mind be restless in the worries of the world. Do all the necessary work regularly and keep your mind fixed on God's footsteps. Even if an unfaithful woman carries out all the household chores with great care, her mind is engrossed in the thoughts of her husband; Sansari, you also do all the work of the world with devotion, but always keep your mind focused on the Lord. One farmer had been watering his sugarcane field all afternoon. At the end of the work, he saw that not a drop of water had entered the field; The water came out through the big rat-holes. The worldly devotees also worship God and keep many secret desires in their minds such as glory, sense gratification, comfort. Even if one prays daily, devotion comes out through the rat-hole of desire. In the last life, it is seen that they are the same as they were in the beginning - they could not improve even a single point. The one who steals from the house cannot succeed in any work. How can you see God unless you want to? Whatever you think, so be it. I want to have harmony in words and deeds. You say God is everything to you but you think the world is everything to you. There is no profit.

It is good to have a boat in the water, but do not let water get into the boat. He who wants to make spiritual progress can stay in the world, but the world should not enter his mind. If there is even a small hole in the bottom of the pitcher, all the water in the pitcher comes out. If such a young monk has even the slightest affection for the world, all his efforts will fail. If there is a burning oven under the milk jug, the milk starts to boil. Once the oven is removed from the floor, the milk freezes. Such a young monk toggles with excitement at first, then it subsides. If milk and water are mixed together, then it is not possible to separate them. If such young monks associate with all worldly people without any discrimination, not only will his ideals falter, but the faith, love, and enthusiasm that he had before will gradually fade away. When the whey is churned, butter comes out of it. The butter has to be picked up and kept in a separate container in clean water. But if that butter can be floated in the rest of the whey, its sweetness and thickness will be lost. If such a devotee comes back to the realm of deep affairs after a little spiritual progress, the filth of the world will be felt, but if it is far away, it will remain pure.
