Guest guest Posted April 23, 2004 Report Share Posted April 23, 2004 [This message was in HTML format] Srimad Bhagavatam 10.7.2 King Pariksit said: My lord, Sukadeva Gosvami, all the various activities exhibited by the incarnations of the Supreme Personality of Godhead are certainly pleasing to the ear and to the mind. Simply by one's hearing of these activites, the dirty things in one's mind immediatley vanish. Generally we are reluctant to hear about the activites of the Lord, but Krsna's childhood activities are so atractive that they are automatically pleasing to the mind and ear. Thus one's attachment for hearing about material things, which is the root cause of material existence, vanishes, and one gradually develops devotional service to the Supreme Lord, attachment for Him, and friendship with devotees who give us the contribution of Krsna consciousness. If you think fit, kindly speak about those activities of the Lord. from the purport: Srimad Bhagavatam and other vedic lituratures exist simple to give us a chance to hear about Krsna. His Holiness Ramai Swami said in the class that hearing about material subjects creates material entanglement for us, whereas hearing about Krsna frees us from materialistic life. Grantharaja Srimad Bhagavatam ki! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
