Guest guest Posted October 24, 2000 Report Share Posted October 24, 2000 does anyone have a verse similar? "the real inquisiiveness -- I want to know what is in Krsna's lunch box." also: from Preyo Bhakti Rasarnava Nayanananda Thakura quotes this verse from the puranas: (which one anyone know?) Other Pur€nas describe the symptoms of the bhaktas as being ten-fold headed by absence of anger, renunciation and so forth (53). akrodha vair€gya jitendriyatvaˆ kam€ day€ sarva-jana-priyatvam nirlobha-d€naˆ bhaya-oka-h…nam bhaktasya cihnaˆ daa-lakaŠañ ca (54) Absence of anger (akrodha), renunciation (vair€gya), mastery over the senses (jitendriyatva), forgiveness (ksam€), compassion (day€), being dear to everyone (sarva-jana-priyatva), absence of greed (nirlobha), giving freely in charity (d€na), being unfettered by fear (bhaya-h…na), and being free from lamentation (shoka-h…na), these ten symptoms are the mark of the true devotee (54). I was trying to trace these verse source references down, but I could not do it. There is nothing of this kind in any books which I have, yet I clearly heard it from somewhere. Could anyone give to me an exact reference, or something close to it from any devotional writings of the acharya's? I was trying to trace it down, but I could not do it.
