talasiga

by the way, Bhaktavasya,

I have very close friends

who eat MEAT !

I am secretly pained by this

They do not know all my secrets

That is their punishment !

I am not in New York talasiga, are you?

 

 

This is the nub of the matter.

I am saddened about what has happened there.

Not only the tragedy of suffering but ALSO

the tragedy that, according to the news, there are some New Yorkers celebrating in the calamity!

You wish to chant and pray more today.

This is your way. Good.

But what about every other day?

There is tragedy and distress

at every corner of the globe

every day.

But not of the magnitude of New York you may say.

Well look at Cambodia - 18,000 genocides daily as a notional average. Didn't that deserve an increase of the Holy Name count ?

Or doesn't the Third World count ?

No I am not in New York today.

I am here talking globally

acting locally.

So, Talasiga, besides continuing to pelt us with `clever` poetry, what is it you are suggesting we do?

1. I have not posted any poetry on this thread.

2. I do not set out to write "clever" poetry. It is only as clever as you would have it.

3. Chanting is great but not coupled with burying our heads in the sand.

Cannot you discern it ?

Maitreya

It has been said you are/were a Christian.

Exactly where is it recorded that Jesus favoured working for God over JUST repeating His Name ?

P.S. Why don't we all chant and pray extra today?

And when two million people

were murdered in cold blood

in Cambodia between 1975 to 1978

(say average 18,000 a day)

under the Pol Pot Regime

Did you "chant and pray extra" then

or was your head buried in the sand ?

When the world is crying for our compassion

Is it right to run into our room

and offer extra rounds?

Does the medical doctor rush to help

the suffering patient or decide rather

to count the moments with Prescriptions ?

Is love of God a narcissistic obsessesion

a self rigteous profession

or a secret affair

to raise peace

in a riotous world ?

Which Messiah was it who favoured

working for God over JUST repeating His Name ?

Prabhupad was an "Indian devotee"

who came to the USA

made the ISKCON

The truth be known its about 90 minutes to sunset where I am.

My day begins at sunset.....

Animesh ! You are only arriving now ?

It is past midnight.

The party is already over.....

Well you can help with the dishes then.

And then - we can watch the sunrise

most arguments on this forum)

Dear Dubeyrakesh,

Well at least they are discussing with each other, which is more than could be said for your attempted discussion with Mrs King.

MC, isn't there a letter from Srila Prabhupada to one mataji where he tells her that her problem was that she was identifying herself as a woman?

Atma is attempting to IDENTIFY a letter !

By the way

what is the word for "homosexual/lesbian"

in Sanskrit

and if there isn't a word

what word/s or term/s

may have been used metaphorically

to indicate this ?

In the depths of our fallibility
