Interviewer: Gurudeb…
Gurudeb: Yes.
Interviewer: Offering my respects to Shantikunj and Mother Bama Tara, and paying my respects to you, let us begin today's episode.
Gurudeb: Yes, go ahead. Let's start the episode.
Interviewer: Gurudeb, we often see various comments. Out of a hundred comments, about ninety-nine are good, and perhaps one or two are negative. Regardless, yesterday a young man—he didn't share his real name, but his profile name is "Tirthankar Job Alerts"—shared some information that truly enriched us. We are very grateful to him and remember him.
Gurudeb: Yes, we are indeed grateful. We must be.
Interviewer: Tirthankar, we don't know your real name, but when I mentioned you to Gurudeb, he was quite moved. He repeatedly asked me to send you a message. In today's episode, we are sending you this message. You mentioned you are looking for a job and are also physically unwell. When I told Gurudeb this, he asked me to convey something to you. Gurudeb, please go ahead.
Gurudeb: Tirthankar, I am asking you to come to me once. It might cost you a little bit for travel, but please come. I will arrange for your health to improve and I will give you something to help you secure a job. I will do both. If you can manage it, even if it costs some time and money, please visit me once. I will ensure your physical condition improves and help you find work. I'll give you something to keep with you, and I believe things will get better.
Gurudeb: But you must come in person, son. Nothing can be done over the phone. Many young men like you have come to me for jobs and have successfully found employment in various places. If you come here, it won't cost you a single penny. You only need to bear your travel expenses to reach the Rajpur Great Cremation Ground (Mahashoshan).
Gurudeb: You can come from Sonarpur; there is a station there. From Sonarpur station, you can take an auto-rickshaw to Rajpur Mahashoshan. If you are coming from Howrah—well, transport is difficult right now because of the lockdown—but otherwise, there are buses. You can take any bus that passes by the Rajpur Cremation Ground.
Gurudeb: The lockdown will last another 15 days, and then it will be lifted. I hope you will come. I want to see you and assess your physical condition. I will pray to the Mother for you.
Interviewer: The information he provided yesterday really helped us. We were very moved and that is why we are mentioning him repeatedly.
Gurudeb: Absolutely.
Interviewer: I messaged him yesterday asking where he lives. He replied by asking, "Will you give me a job?" Perhaps he didn't quite understand who we were or the context of Shantikunj and these episodes. If he knew, he surely would have said something else. Regardless, Gurudeb is requesting you to come.
Gurudeb: Yes, I am requesting you to come once. It won't cost you a penny. I will use my spiritual path to do whatever I can to help you. You don't have to spend anything. Just come to the Rajpur Great Cremation Ground. You can come via Sonarpur or Howrah. You can even take the Metro to Garia and then take an auto-rickshaw. There are many ways. Wait for the lockdown to end and then come. I will do whatever is within my power.
Interviewer: To our viewers, we are sharing this today specifically because this young man provided us with such valuable information. We were very impressed. Tirthankar, please note that Gurudeb rarely makes requests to anyone, but he has specifically requested you. This is a great opportunity for you. If you find the time, please come, meet Gurudeb, and take his blessings.
Interviewer: To other viewers, please don't all show up at once; this message is specifically for Tirthankar. Please call before coming.
Gurudeb: Yes, I am telling Tirthankar specifically: if you can, come and meet me. I will use my spiritual strength to improve your health and help you find a job. You won't need to spend a single cent.
Interviewer: Pranam (Respects), Gurudeb.
Gurudeb: Pranam, son.
