Shri Gokulnathji's Hasya Prasangs - Prasang 15

From Anyashray, One Gets the Opposite of the Desired Fruit (Anyashraythi Viprit Phal Male):

One day, someone asked Shri Gusaiji, that normally when one receives mani (pearls, etc) it is considered good. Ek divse Shri Gusaijine koie puchyu, ke manina aav-vaathi rudhu thay, Then how is it that now it has happened just the opposite.(te to ulto bhundu thayu !) At that time He said that because the mind diverted from Shri Thakorji over to the mani, this opposite thing happened (Tyare pote kahyu ke shri thakorji uparthi chitt ghatyu ane mani upar shraddha thai aathi viprit thayu.)

Vivechan – That which reduces our focus (mind/thoughts from Thakorji) does not do any good. (Je vastuna aavathi prabhu uparthi chitt ghate te vastuthi kadi bhalu thay nahi.). Contrary to that, money is maya/materialistic (Vadi dhan-e maya che.). Because this maya arrived one became mayavi (materialistic minded) and therefore forgets Prabhu and continues to hanker in maya/dhan. (Aathi te aavta mayavi thai-javathi prabhu-ne visri javay che ane dhanma-j takraro raheli che.). Sankadik Rishis also forgot Prabhu when they visited Vainkunth they had forgotten after seeing the glamour of the Sfatik Manis and their minds got occoupied in admiring these manis. This is the reason why Jay and Vijay had stopped them from entering the gates of Vaikunth. (Sankadik rishio pan vaikunthna sfatik manina kot joine prabhune bhuli gaya, ane te jovama chit lagi gayu, aa karanthij jay and vijay-e temne vaikunthma jata khalya hata.). Therefore those things  which cause our minds to waver away from Prabhu should be considered as the cause of sufferings. These things are demonic (not transcendental /Aasuri). (Mate je vastu-thi prabhuma-thii chitt uthe, te vastuno sang dukh-dayak che -em janvu, te vastuj aasuri che.)
