Guest guest Posted November 3, 2000 Report Share Posted November 3, 2000 > Extrapolating that a specific instruction for a specific devotee is meant > to be generalized is what is too much. The above statement *may apply* In the case of Vishala's talks with Prabhupada. But with the talks with the 80 or so Brahmacaries under TKG's direction in 1975, It was not a 'specific instruction for a specific devotee' it was a general instruction meant to encourage all brahmacaries. Otherwise what other meaning can anyone ascribe to Prabhupada's intentions when he clearly spoke both in the beginning and at the end beaming widely as he spoke. "My Guru Maharaja, very much liked this brahmacari life." He said it *twice*. that means he was emphasising it once again for every brahmacaries *general* benefit in ISKCON. Please differenciate when you make those statements. ys MMDASBR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
