HARE KRSNA GURUDEVA,

PAOHO,AGTSP!

I HAD READ SIMILAR PURPORTS BY SRILA PRABHUPADA, THAT IS WHY I WORRY.

IN THE MAIN TIME I DID PUT MY NAME DOWN FOR SO MANY DIFFERENT KINDS

OF JOBS, AND NONE OF THEM INVOLVED ANIMAL KILLING (CLEANING, RECEPTIONS, CHILDREN CARING, ENTERTAINMENT, MYSTERY SHOPER...). I  WONDER WHY NONE OF THIS CAME UP AND I WONDER WHY THIS ONE DID COME UP, I NEVER THOUGHT.

THEY WILL CALL ME BECAUSE I SAID IN THE FIRST INTERVIEW I DON´T WANT TO BE WAITRESS.

SOMETIMES I HAVE HEARD THAT WHEN THIS HAPPENS KRSNA WILL PROVIDE SOMETHING ELSE, I WONDER WHY HE DID NOT.

DO IT ALREADY... WHAT IS THE TEST?

I ALWAYS WORKED, BUT FOR SOME YEARS I HAVE DEPENDED ON BHADRA AND EVEN ON MY PARENTS, I AM ALMOST 37, I AM NOT HAPPY LIVING LIKE THIS, AND BHADRA IS NOT WORKING NOW...SO WHAT I AM MEAN TO DO?

YOUR CONFUSED STUDENT

SANANDA DD

HpS - Should see what work Bhadra can do, a career. You are his wife. You have special potency to understand the character of your husband and then help him in his work. Maybe he should be a Senator? Maybe...  think about it.

You can be honest with your employers. Show them the SB and the citation and then the comment of your Bishop (Me), that according to your particular position in your religioniouis life. and just personal feelings of compassion you can't distribute meat, and you can certainly understand that this may not be practical for them if you are going to work for them, so they may have to ask you to look for work elsewhere, even though you do like working there in other aspects.

Krsna will NEVER punish you for following such a clear instruction as Prabhupada has written it. You can be a little Prahlada Maharaja.
