Guest guest Posted April 17, 2002 Report Share Posted April 17, 2002 Basically it is our fault of not going to back end meaning of Krishna and his wives. It is said that "stree prayam itharam jagat". He is the only purusha and we are all the pragnyas for him. In that sense only nayaki baavam came in. . We need to really appreciate the way the Lawyer handled the issue. Our great ancestors have PERSONIFIED things for better understanding and to take things to all levels of people. Unfortunately we have taken those as PERSONALITIES and that is why we have all these.

Guest guest Posted April 17, 2002 Report Share Posted April 17, 2002 a lot is said along these lines about Krishna the peeping tom. Is Krishna really? Krishna lesson to all and test for HIS dear gopies was to find out if they would remember HIM and HIM alone forgetting even their bodies. So Krishna asked all of them out to come out of the stream with hands up in the air. For those of us who are used to 25C Time Square shows, the real message is lost. That the creature comforts and the source body itself is to be ignored and Naryana Smaranam is all that matters. A similar story regarding Suka son of Vyasa Mahamuni is narrated by Sri. Vellukudi Swamin in his lectures on Srimad Bagawatham. -- RK --- Nanmaaran <nanmaaran wrote: > > SrimathE raamanujaya namaha. > Dear Nara Kesari, > Basically it is our fault of not going to back end > meaning of Krishna and his wives.

Guest guest Posted April 18, 2002 Report Share Posted April 18, 2002 hari om. certainly it is ammusing. all of us have been sons, daughters, wives, husbands, brothers, sisters etc. to each other, in some life or another. For example, Sri Adis Sesha as Sri Lakshmana was the younger brother of Sri Rama, but as Sri Balarama, was the elder brother of Sri Krishna! all the 'blood' relationships and other 'social' relationships have evolved over a period of time to help the particular society maintain an organisation. at the spiritual level, if we approach it from an 'advaita' point of view, there is only Atma and all of us are projections of that. And if we approach it from Visishtadvaita point, all of us are amsas of that Supreme God. I hope I got it correctly. swamy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
