kAmasikhAstakam

[Guest guest]

Dear friends,

 

One kind and appreciative member on the list has read my post on

"nrsimha-jayanti" and "kamAsikAshtakam" and pointed out to me privately

that the verse I had dealt with (bandhumakhilasya ..."etc.) is not

Stanza 3 but Stanza 4 of Swami Desikan's hymn.

 

I thank him for pointing out the error and I am sorry for it.

 

The member also raised a very pertinent point. "From the general drift

of your comments on "bandhumakhilasya janto-ho"", he says, "it would

appear as though the Lord makes no real distinction between good, evil

and indiferent "jantus" of the world and treats them all alike. Is this

not a rather amoral and un-scriptural view to take ?"

 

I commend the member's extremely sharp sense of critical appreciation.

 

I have no ready response to him but I am sure I'll come up with one

soon.

 

Meanwhile, I have the member's permission to post his query on the list

and seek the views and comments of other members.

 

Please do get the discussion going.

 

Thanks,

adiyEn,

sudarshan
