Guest guest Posted April 30, 2005 Report Share Posted April 30, 2005 Namaste Llundrub, Well this message and others have shown up, no contention there. Rudra Centre is not a commercial enterprise as such and usually misunderstood by many who are ignorant. For your information, Rudra Centre's combined efforts (from Headquarters, world-wide distributors, etc), make donations to charity, temples and also support about 200 poor village families in India, Nepal and elsewhere. The Lord cannot be bought nor sold. Buying or Selling is Leela and Maya. Sanskrit texts make mention that if one finds (genuine rudraksha), it is by way of blessings from Lord Shiva in previous births. Thus, Rudrakshas find their own homes and "caretakers" so to speak. Not the other way round. If there is bhakti or rnanubandha, you may even get rudraksha beads for free, such from George Pillai our Beloved Brother here who previously offered everyone on this group free 5 mukhis out of sheer devotion and love for Lord Shiva. If neither bhakti and rnanubandhana exists, even if the Lord knocked on your door, you wouldn't even be able to recognise Him ))))) Now, a gentle but solid affirmation: -- Scepticism and sarcasm are the lowest form of wit. Refrain from either, if you are to make spiritual progress. And: --- You remind us of one particular troublemaker whom we had no choice but to ban from this group. We wish never to have to ban or remove members. But when left with no alternative, regrettably the "chop" has to take place for the benefit of the majority of brothers and sisters here. Speak no ill, hear no ill and think no ill, and you will never be "ill". We encourage sincere participations and sharing of experiences and knowledge of rudraksha and holy items. But we discourage bad taste such as sarcasm. Thank you for taking the time to read this Llundrub.

Guest guest Posted April 30, 2005 Report Share Posted April 30, 2005 As my cherished sister has said-- I couldn't agree more with her perfect explanation. In the beads, the tears of the Lord, shed for love of His children, also provide a livelihood, for farmers, gatherers, and cleaners. Myriads of different blessings for different people-- each according to his need. Who can comprehend the depth of such love? I doubt that we fragile mortals can percieve a millionth part of it. All we can do is try to be as loving as possible, to try to emulate the Lord. And, to look forward to a time when we will be wise and loving enough to be absorbed into Him. Love, K.
