Guest guest Posted August 8, 2001 Report Share Posted August 8, 2001 Jay Sriman Narayana! I would like to know what you think about Gaudiya Vaishnavism, and their claim that Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu is an avatara of Sri Krishna. Also, when for example Sri Krishna was present on the planet, did He appear in His original divine form or do you think He was a man (with divine qualities), like Sri Ramacandra?

Guest guest Posted September 13, 2001 Report Share Posted September 13, 2001 Priya Sriman Premananda Dasji! Jia Srimannarayana! WE have seen your email about the Vaishnavism. Due to lack of time, we could not reply to you soon. We want to reply to you now in short and brief. Gaudi:ya people claim that Chaitanya Maha Prabhu is the incornation of Lord Krishna, and is called 'Goura:nga'. Great people and a:charyas did not consider this opinion. Still they have tremendous respect towards Sri Maha Prabhu. After Lord Sri:krishna, they did not accept any incornation like that, in a moving form. Whatever is to be proved ws well proved there in Lord Krishna's incornation itself, hence, all other forms are of the devotees. So all so Chaitanya Mahaprabhu is a very great devotee soaked with bhakthi and propagated that Bhakthi only. You may be knowing that Sri A:cha:rya Ra:ma:nuja, was the only one, who brought out the Bhakthi cult and established that very well, condemning the Ma:ya:wada, in total. He might be having so many mystic powers with him, no doubt. 2. When Lord appeared in the form of Lord Krishna, He did not take pancha Bhu:thas as His form. He took His own Pancha Upanishanmaya Prakruthi, as His form. That is what He also declared in the 4th chapter "prakruthim swa:m adhishtta:ya sambhava:mi". That is also called "apra:krutha divya mangala vigraham". He was not like Sri:ra:machendra, who acted totally as human being. 3. After observing the New York tragedy, we want all our bhagavad bandhus, come forward, join their hands, pray to God for the victims, pray for the victims drowned in the ocean of sorrow, and contribute money and blood, if possible, immediately. =chinnajeeyar= Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
