Guest guest Posted January 22, 2003 Report Share Posted January 22, 2003 Sri Hayavadana parabrahmane namaha! Sri Krishna Parabrahmane namaha! Vishe:sha:rtham: The purushardhas are dharma ardha and ka:ma. Human beings have to wish for them and work hard to get them. Depending on our past karma we get the ‘dharma sraddha’ 'wealth and kaama' in this life. If they are against us then we can pray to Lord and become a dhaarmika; we can earn riches; and enjoy the pleasures of life too. But the one that gives us everlasting happiness is Bhagavadbhakti. Not these things! Making this Bhagavadbhakthi the means – asking for dharma or ardha or kaama or janmaraahithya is totally foolish like bartering pearls for berries. So purushaardham means not these. Only bhakti is the purushaardham. Kulasekhara realized that - 'bhakti should only be sought with devoted prayers'. Slo:ka: 6 Na:stha: dharmae: na vasunichaye: naiva ka:mo:pabho:ge: Yadyadbhavyam bhavathu Bhagavan! Pu:rva karma:nuru:pam Ae:thathpra:rdhyam mama bahumatham janma janma:nthare:pi Thvathpa:da:mbho:ruha yugagatha: nischala:bhakthi rastu. Jaisrimannarayana!
