Guest guest Posted April 28, 2002 Report Share Posted April 28, 2002 Jai Guru Datta. Sri Guru Datta. Someone recently asked the question about Sri Swamiji's teaching on organ donation. In Bhakti Mala, October 2000, a transcript of a question and answer session was printed in which this issue was addressed by Sri Swamiji. The direct quote from Bhakti Mala follows. Question - What about organ donation? Some feel that if you donate an eye, in your next birth you will be born without one eye. What is it? Answer - It is an old question. Dadhichi, a great sage gifted his spinal cord to Indra to make a weapon of it. Indra then asked Brahma if Dadhichi would have problem in his next life and Brahma had already clarified that Dadhichi would not be suffering but instead would benefit from this act. So, please donate organs and save lives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
