Guest guest Posted May 14, 2004 Report Share Posted May 14, 2004 [This message was in HTML format] Dear brothers, whatever your religous faith, please read and understand the following words of Lord Caitanya and the Srimad Bhagavatam: "Neither by mind nor words should the devotee cause anxiety to any living entity, regardless how insignificant he may be." (Cc. madhya 22.120) "I am present in every living entity as the Supersoul. If someone neglects or disregards that Supersoul everywhere and engages himself in worship of the deity in the temple, that is simply imitation. One who worships the deity of Godhead in the temples but does not know that the Supreme Lord, as paramatma, is situated in every living being's heart, is in ignorance and is compared to one who offers oblations into ashes. One who offers Me respect but is envious of the bodies of others and is therefore a separatist never attains peace of mind, because of his inimical behavior towards other living entities" (Srimad Bhagavatam 3.29.21-23) "Lord Hrishikesh, Krishna, at once gives His mercy to a person who does not trouble others and who is as kind to them as a father is to his son." (Mahabharata, quoted in Bhakti-sandarbha 106.83) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
