TIME is running, last dice any time...

Verse 1.13.20 (Mohan Pr):

* Important verse
* Story about a person who is an expert gambler. He lets the opponent win and lose, carefully watching him all the time, but finally wins everything away from him.
- this person is time and the opponent is none other than us.
- his two eyes are compared to day and night, watching us how we are winning and losing.
- With every dice, we sometimes win, but most likely all the money that we earned is lost in one or more losses. Everything we possess will be taken away.
- When time throws the last round of dice, we cannot save ourselves.
* Time is continuously passing away. New year is approaching. Just now Y2K problem went by, and already 2010 is coming by.
* The last round of dice can be thrown for us anytime - in 2010 or 2009 itself. So we should be thinking on this.
* We need to think how much of time we spent in doing Devotional service, developing the 26 qualities.
* Only these activities come with us, not our energies or efforts in going after land, money etc.
