268 THE SCIENCE OF SELF-REALIZATION

Mr. O’Grady: My experience is that, for some extraordinary reason, one
is chosen to do a particular thing.

Srila Prabhupada: That reason is given here. Avicyutah. The infallible
choice is this: ‘‘Let them describe the glories of the Lord.”’

Mr. O’Grady: But you were saying that the spiritual master is chosen.
The spiritual master, the poet, the priest, is chosen by God. This person
is chosen to write poems or paint pictures or make music.

Srila Prabhupada: So when you compose music, compose music about
God. That is your perfection.

Mr. O’Grady: When one works for God in his line, then his line be-
comes his perfection?

Srila Prabhupada: Yes.

Mr. O’Grady: Thank you very much.
