Guest guest Posted June 6, 2000 Report Share Posted June 6, 2000 Dear Devotees of the Lord, i have two questions regarding Sri Prahlada via Sanku Karna. Madhvas proofing by quoting Narasimha Purana that Sanku Karna incranated as Sri Prahlada due to a curse of Brahma. Further they quote Narasimha Purana that in Kali Yuga Sri Prahlada incarnated as Sri Raghavendra Tirtha Swamij to bless mandkind. My question is if Sanku Karna is a resident of Sri Vaikuntha, how he can be cursed by Brahma? Second: Sri Vaisnavas see Sri Raghavendra Tirtha Swami as a incarnation of Sri Prahlada too ? Thank you very much for help Your amaraprabhu Dasa Namo Narayana ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 6, 2000 Report Share Posted June 6, 2000 Dear Sriman malola amaraprabhu dasa: Jaya and Vijaya, residents, in fact the DwarapAlakas of Sriman Narayana were cursed by young sages who came to visit Sriman Narayan when Jaya and Vijaya did not let the munis into Vaikunta. As a matter of Fact also, Sage Brighu is know to have kicjed Lord Sriman Narayana in his chest. Although Sri PrahalAda is a Dhanava like Vibheeshana, to the best of my knwoledge Sri Raghavendra Thirtha Swamiji is an incarnation of Pranadevatha ( Hanuman ), just like bhagavan Ramanuja who is an Incarnation of Adi Shesha. to support this point, adiyEn quotes the following sloka : Anantaha Pratamam Rupam LakshmanAstu tataha param | BalabhadrAsta-thiyatu Kalo Ramanujaha smartaha || Adi shesha incarnates as Lakshmana in the Tretayuga and as Balarama in the Dvaparayuga and as Ramanuja in the Kali Yuga. This verse to the best of adiyEn's knwoledge was printed in Sriman R.Padmanabhan's work - Bhagavan Ramanuja - LIFCO Publishers. adiyEn will send you more details about Sri Madhava Charya soon. adiyEn malola narsimhadasan , Malolan Cadambi. - malola.amaraprabhu dasa bhakti-list Tuesday, June 06, 2000 3:31 PM Sri Prahlada via Sanku Karna Dear Devotees of the Lord, i have two questions regarding Sri Prahlada via Sanku Karna.
