Nasty mosquitoes! All they do is bite and cause itching. When the mosquitoes disappear, then the flies appear, landing on my head, buzzing in my ear. Or a mouse secretly chews holes in the screens for keeping the mosquitoes and flies out. Or the ants start trekking in regimented lines over the walls, periodically breaking rank to feast on a dead bug or any crumb of prasadam left anywhere.

Get rid of all these pests! Brahma looks down from Satyaloka and says, “Who is that agitated fool disturbing all my creations?” The twentieth anga of bhakti is: do not disturb any living being.
