Srimadbhagavatha - V adhyaya

[Guest guest]

Sri Krishnaya Namah!

 

I would like to post some excerpts out of Srimadbhagavatha --

 

1. During one of the mission to conquer the world, Ravana enters Sutala

where Bali stays along with the Lord himself as guardian. Ravana, does

challenge Bali but had to face the Lord, who, with His Toe nail, throws

Ravana out of Sutala. One should imagine how Lord though with such a

devastating and unimaginable strength, for the sake of this karma bhoomi

and to fulfill his bhaktas words(Lord Brahma and Devarshi Narada) had to

born as a human being and with so much effort kills Ravana in the end.

With this, we can guage His sousheelyam, soulabhyam and an innate desire

to please bhakthas in this karmabhoomi.

 

2. Lord Sankarshana, with thousand heads destroys this world during

kalpantha. Actually He will not do it Himself as there is no need, since

the entire charachara srusti He only carries on his thousand heads and our

planet is like a size of a peanut to say the least. He does this destru

ction through creation of numerous Rudras who will born out of His face

having a Trishul in their hands and are three eyed. Lord Rudra always

meditate Lord Sankarshana seeking powers for this activity.

 

3. In the order of greatness of this charachara srushti, among various

other variables, Asuras are greater than Human being and Devas are greater

than Asuras, Lord shiva is greater among Devas, Lord Brahma (being the

father of Shiva) is greater than Lord Shiva, and Srimannarayana is greater

than Lord Brahma and Brahmana is greater than the Lord himself. These are

the words that captured my attention. He says that since Brahmana medidate

upon Him and always focus his attention on His divyapadam, among other

things like indriyanigraham, he is greater than Himself. These are the

words of the Lord Himself and let all of us do this with His krupa,

irrespective of the caste/place where we dwell, so that we can all have

permanent bliss.

 

 

Humble Pranams to all bhagavathas!!

 

 

Sukumar
