Guest guest Posted February 9, 2006 Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 prema-pracarana ara pasanda-dalana dui-karye avadhuta karena bhramana For two purposes -- to spread the cult of bhakti and to defeat and subdue the atheists -- Lord Nityananda, the most dedicated devotee of the Lord, moved throughout the country. Cc Antya 3.149 In Sri Caitanya-caritamrta (Madhya 13.149) Krsnadasa Kaviraja Gosvami describes Lord Nityananda traveling everywhere with two purposes: to preach love of Krsna (prema-pracarana) and to subdue the unbelievers (pasanda-dalana). Lord Nityananda and His followers preached Krsna consciousness anywhere and everywhere without discrimination, taking all risks to preach among the infidels, meat-eaters, and outcasts. Lord Nityananda and His men moved freely amongst all classes of people, not caring for social convention. They never considered that they might become contaminated or ostracized. They simply wanted to give Krsna consciousness to everyone. No one since has demonstrated such bravado in spreading Krsna consciousness as His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Srila Prabhupada. Jaya Srila Prabhupada! (from my book "Jaya Srila Prabhupada!") Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
