Like that, as Caitanya Mahāprabhu taught us. The time is very dangerous. And still, in this dangerous time . . . just like in epidemic condition where every people is being contaminated and dying, still, the doctors appointed by the government, they have to go into the epidemic area and try to treat the person and save them. Our duty is like that. The whole atmosphere is epidemic, whole atmosphere, this Kali-yuga. And still, by the superior orders we have to preach this Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement.

So there is an English proverb—perhaps you know, all—"To push good money after bad money." So therefore sometimes intelligent persons, they do not go to the court because he knows that money which is not being paid . . . before entering into agreement you should be very clever so that your money may not be bad money which you are advancing. But if somehow or other it has become bad money, don't try to put good money. Let that bad money go to hell.

So better nowadays not to go to the court as far as possible. But you should deal with people in such a way . . . just like I was advising you, just find out a respectable transporter, because the time is very bad. Otherwise it will become a bad money. You go for cheap things, that, "He will carry my goods free," but he will throw it away—somebody will take away. Then your whole profit is gone. You should be very careful. And if you have to go to court, then it is still more bad. You see?

So we have to be very careful. The age is very bad, the Kali-yuga. You are experiencing. We have to simply take shelter of Kṛṣṇa and always cry:

<div class="quote_verse">
:kṛṣṇa, kṛṣṇa, kṛṣṇa, kṛṣṇa, kṛṣṇa, kṛṣṇa, kṛṣṇa, he!
:kṛṣṇa, kṛṣṇa, kṛṣṇa, kṛṣṇa, kṛṣṇa, kṛṣṇa, kṛṣṇa, he!
:kṛṣṇa, kṛṣṇa, kṛṣṇa, kṛṣṇa, kṛṣṇa, kṛṣṇa, rakṣa mām!
:kṛṣṇa, kṛṣṇa, kṛṣṇa, kṛṣṇa, kṛṣṇa, kṛṣṇa, pāhi mām!
:kṛṣṇa, keśava, kṛṣṇa, keśava, kṛṣṇa, keśava, rakṣa mām! 
:rāma rāghava, rāma rāghava, rāma rāghava, pāhi mām!
</div>

Like that, as Caitanya Mahāprabhu taught us. The time is very dangerous. And still, in this dangerous time . . . just like in epidemic condition where every people is being contaminated and dying, still, the doctors appointed by the government, they have to go into the epidemic area and try to treat the person and save them. Our duty is like that. The whole atmosphere is epidemic, whole atmosphere, this Kali-yuga. And still, by the superior orders we have to preach this Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement.

Therefore our only shelter is Kṛṣṇa. Kṛṣṇa, kṛṣṇa, kṛṣṇa, kṛṣṇa, kṛṣṇa, kṛṣṇa, rakṣa mām. Very dangerous position. The foolish people, they are thinking that "We are very happy and we are very safe." But nobody is safe. Nobody is safe. So we have to deal with persons very carefully, and at the same time, we have to push our missionary activities.

Aho kaṣṭaṁ dharma-dṛśām. So they are saying, dharma-dṛśāṁ sabhām, sabhā, sabhām adharmaḥ spṛśate: "If in the court of justice these false things are bribing and without money nobody can get justice, these things happen, it becomes very troublesome."

<div class="quote_verse">
:aho kaṣṭaṁ dharma-dṛśām
:adharmaḥ spṛśate sabhām
:yatrādaṇḍyeṣv apāpeṣu
:daṇḍo yair dhriyate vṛthā 
:([[Vanisource:SB 6.2.2|SB 6.2.2]])

Sabhāṁ yatra sabhāyam, vaidharma dhigbhiḥ esam tan saba. "If the people who are administering justice, they become irreligious, impious, oh, how troublesome situation!" This is the first acclamation.
