Srila Prabhupada consoles a devotee

I heard after coming from Puri that the Boy ' Tota' had passed away.though Tota is your son ,he is a devotee of the Lord. a Vaishnava had come to your house and you have served him and he taking whatever services from you has left accordingly.The living entity comes into this material world by the effects of his previous works and later after the demise of his body is sent by Baladeva according to his merit to a proper situation.If you have considered serving Lord Vishnu in the form of your son then you would not have such a loss;The Lord as the Supersoul existed in your son ,continue serving the Lord and do not be disturbed.The body of Tota' has mixed with the elements though he is still steadfastly engaged in the service of the Lord somewhere.Actually the real enjoyer is the Supreme Lord and Tota is in his proper place in his devout service to the Lord somewherelse.The Lord is showering His causeless mercy on you because he is taking you over the conditioning of this world.Remember the action taken by the son of Vyasa on the event of his birth,also in the Chaitanya Bhaghavat,Mahaprabhu did tell his mother,wife and relatives on the day of taking the renounced order,' that as a human being I have different relationships with all of You but please give me a chance to serve Lord Hari in my independent way and endeavour to establish in my absence the connection you have for me with the Supreme Lord.You should take this advice to heart and in the absence of Tota to establish the relation with the Supreme Lord.Everything the Lord does is for the good of humanity.I am only a conditioned soul and that is the limit of my understanding.
