Guest guest Posted January 13, 2004 Report Share Posted January 13, 2004 koti asvamedha eka krsna nama sama yei kahe, se pasandi, dande tare yama "One who says that ten million asvamedh sacrifices are equal to the chanting of the holy name of Lord Krsna is undoubtedly an atheist. He is sure to be punished by Yamaraja." PURPORT(excerpt): In the list of the ten kinds of offenses in chanting the holy name of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Hare Krsna, the eighth offense is dharme-vrata-tyaga-hutadi-sarva-subha-kriya-amyam api pramadah. One should never consider the chanting of the holy name of Godhead equal to pious activities like giving charity to brahmanas or saintly persons, opening charitable educational institutions, distributing free food and so on. The results of pious activities do not equal the results of chanting the holy name of Krsna. Sri Caitanya-caritamrta Adi 3.79 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
