By arraying oneself in the trappings of a devotee like a harlequin one may deceive people, but one does no good either to oneself or to others. It is those who follow the kirtana-kari that are really their own benefactors or properly alive to self-interest. They are also benefactors of others and mindful of others&#8217; interests. They are not blinded by considerations of undue personal advantages, nor do they cheat others. They are therefore truly disinterested. It is by kirtana alone that the claims of self-interest, the interests of others, and disinterestedness are simultaneously satisfied.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\">H.D.G. #Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Prabhupada.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\">Journal &#8220;The Harmonist&#8221;<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\">June 1927<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\"><!-- Widget Shortcode --><div id=\"black-studio-tinymce-6\" class=\"widget-1 widget-first widget widget_black_studio_tinymce widget-shortcode area-arbitrary \"><h2 class=\"widgettitle\">KADACHA BookStore<\/h2><div class=\"textwidget\"><pre style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;font-size: 20px;color: #ff0000;font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif\">\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kadachaeditions.com\" id=\"kadbtn65\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"kad-btn btn-shortcode kad-btn-primary lg-kad-btn \" style=\"background-color:#3a5744; border: 0 solid; border-color:#000;  color:#ffffff;\" onMouseOver=\"this.style.color=&#039;gold&#039;\" onMouseOut=\"this.style.color=&#039;#ffffff&#039;\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Click here to VIEW! <i class='icon-cart2'><\/i><\/a>\r\n\r\n<\/span><\/pre>\n<\/div><\/div><!-- \/Widget Shortcode --><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Do not imitate the kirtana-kari (one who does kirtana) Anukara, imitation, is a mere burlesque.
