Guest guest Posted June 7, 2000 Report Share Posted June 7, 2000 here is the cc verse 90 you want, just use a sanskrta font like balarama, drona etc.: ys MMDASBR here's another verse for you too. SB. 10 47. 18 yad-anucarita-l…l€-karŠa-p…y™a-vipru˜- sakd-adana-vidh™ta-dvandva-dharm€ vina˜€ƒ sapadi gha-ku˜umbaˆ d…nam utsjya d…n€ bahava iha viha‰g€ bhiku-cary€ˆ caranti SYNONYMS yat-whose; anucarita-constantly performed activities; l…l€-of such pastimes; karŠa-for the ears; p…y™a-of the nectar; vipru˜-of a drop; sakt-just once; adana-by the partaking; vidh™ta-removed entirely; dvandva-of duality; dharm€ƒ-their propensities; vina˜€ƒ-ruined; sapadi-immediately; gha-their homes; ku˜umbam-and families; d…nam-wretched; utsjya-rejecting; d…n€ƒ-becoming themselves wretched; bahavaƒ-many persons; iha-here (in Vnd€vana); viha‰g€ƒ-(like) birds; bhiku-of begging; cary€m-the livelihood; caranti-they pursue. TRANSLATION To hear about the pastimes that KŠa regularly performs is nectar for the ears. For those who relish just a single drop of that nectar, even once, their dedication to material duality is ruined. Many such persons have suddenly given up their wretched homes and families and, themselves becoming wretched, traveled here to Vnd€vana to wander about like birds, begging for their living. PURPORT Material duality is based on falsely thinking, "This is mine, and that is yours," or "This is our country, and that is yours," or "This is my family, and that is yours," and so on. In fact, there is one Absolute Truth, in which we all exist and to whom everything belongs. His beauty and pleasure are also absolute and infinite, and if one actually hears about this Absolute Truth, called KŠa, one's dedication to the illusion of mundane duality is spoiled. According to the €c€ryas, and certainly in accord with Sanskrit grammar, the last two words of the second line of this text may also be divided dharma-avina˜€ƒ. Then the entire line becomes part of a single compound, the meaning of which is that hearing about KŠa cleanses one of irreligious duality and thus one is not vanquished (avina˜a) by material illusion. The word d…n€ƒ is then given the alternate reading of dh…r€ƒ, meaning that one becomes spiritually sober and thus gives up attachment to fleeting material relationships. The word viha‰g€ƒ, "birds," would in this case refer to swans, the symbol of essential discrimination. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
